We're definitely talking about different things. The open internet is hostile and you'll always need load shedding when the clients misbehave. If you control all clients and servers and are on a closed network, you can do all sort

If your clients are all this well behaved, then you’re definitely not exposed to the public internet. The global edge networks that I’m aware of all use L4 LBs and L7 LBs. Cloudflare picks anycast over DNS LB, but DNS LB is still widely use

IME sports doctors and physios have incentives aligned with returning to high functionality. I think this causes them to clinically converge on effective treatments. It’s also possible that they have clientele who are willing to put in the

Having strong muscles around the joint won't fix a structural problem, but they definitely won't hurt. When I tore my ACL doing bjj, I was surprised to see that some pro MMA fighters will continue to fight with a torn ACL. They do

Sounds half baked. What context does this function run in? Is it an interpreted language or an executable that you provide? Inotify is the way to shovel these events out of the kernel, then userspace process rules apply. It's maybe not

No. You sit on the call and wait to restore your service to your users. There’s bullshit toil in disabling scale in as the outage gets longer. Eventually, AWS has a VP of something dial in to your call to apologize. They’re unprepared and o

The worst SEV calls are the one where you twiddle your thumbs waiting for a support rep to drop a crumb of information about the provider outage. You wake up. It's not your fault. You're helpless to solve it.

Google, Apple, and Meta (maybe others?) have the data to build a complete GeoIP dataset. None of them will share because there are only downsides to doing so. When FB was rolling out ipv6 in 2012, well meaning engineers proposed releasing a

I see a single IP for all 3 While I'm here: Google uses edns0 client subnet to geo target your client IP. Try a dig -t txt o-o.myaddr.l.google.com @8.8.8.8 vs the others to see the src IP of the packet sent to Google's DNS server,

It depends on how long they're above the speed limit and you're below it. If you want to win the race, max acceleration, max speed, max deceleration. Anything else is sub optimal.

Amusing that they don't mention xds at all. How did they "win" when xds, envoy's config, is becoming the defacto interface to LBs? Sure, Gateway API is kinda xds by not, but it's envoy all the way down.

I worked on the laser printers in the early 2000s when they transitioned to Linux for the OS. They were hiring Linux nerds and I fit the bill. It was a fun place for a while, but the IBM legacy was an albatross. I left for Google and didn&#
