      Private Eye | Government secrecy : Trash talk
      ENCRYPTED messaging app Signal is increasingly popular in Westminster. Many Tory MPs joined the network after the general election, apparently attracted by the larger group size it allows compared to WhatsApp, which is handy for a party with a big majority.

In response, Jepsen published an article stating that MongoDB 3.6.4 had in fact failed their tests; the newer MongoDB 4.2.6 has more problems including “retrocausal transactions” where a transaction reverses order so that a read can see the result of a future write.
