Object Narrowing in Typescript with Graphile Worker
Graphile worker has been great for me because it's a library that works with Postgres that allows me to queue jobs and execute them on the server without adding too many additional layers of complexity for being able to accomplish async tasks.

I'm trying out Render.com as a potential replacement for Heroku to host and run my code, which uses Node, Express, and the ws package to connect a game made on Godot Engine and the webapp, using a Websocket connection. However, when I migrated the code over, I've noticed that the game lasts barely a quarter of the way before the server aborts the Websocket connection for literally no reason. I'm serious, it's what the log says:
