I don't quite understand how the jobs are "dispatched" from Redis to the workers. Wouldn't workers need to poll the Redis cache in-order to figure out the available jobs? Can someone please explain? And also it is mentioned that it is debatable whether cron was the right choice for Slack. What other possible options Slack could have considered?
