> You see, connectivity is generally good on a boat - wifi, cell coverage, and satellite options abound - so we survive. But when it isn’t good, it really isn’t good. And then suddenly, it dawns on you just how much of your life is beholden to the cloud. Your documents don’t load. Your photos don’t sync. Your messages don’t send. Without necessarily consciously realizing it, we have all moved most of our online existence to other people’s computers! Welcome to the world a huge chunk of the population lives in. It drives me crazy how quick people were to jump onto cloud computing without ever asking the question "how well does it work when my Internet connection sucks?"
