- hinkley 11mo agoYou're going to run a production system with a bus number of 1? I think you mean a small fraction of 3 engineers. And small fractions aren't that small.
- adrianN 11mo agoSo far I have seen a lot more production systems with a bus factor of zero than production systems with a bus factor greater one.
- xboxnolifes 11mo agoThe cost being a fraction of 1 does not imply it's one person. 3 people each spending 2 weeks a year on the service is still a fraction of 1.
- hinkley 11mo agoIt is three opportunity costs. No free lunches.
- Dylan16807 11mo agoNobody implied it was free. Yes there are opportunity costs, and they add up to less than one sysadmin of opportunity.
