I read an AMA on Reddit at one point from a guy who worked as a server engineer on some large porn website/network. The questions were mostly about engineering, but the answers were fascinating - when you think about it, porn networks have to face the same scaling issues as many startups, and they have some unique challenges (and also advantages) that other markets don't.
I was secretly hoping this post would be something along those lines. Interesting nevertheless, but not what I was expecting!

But if I were at work, maybe I would think twice before opening a link that might be NSFW. Or I can picture some people might not be interested in anything porn related, for many reasons.
