That is so cute, getting excited about 5mbps extra.

Now, could someone explain to me why this is on hacker news, and so high in the list? It only remotely references something new that Google is doing, is that the requirement these days?
- Ao7bei3s 14y agoI disagree, actually -- according to speedtest.net we are both in the 1%. A 5Mbits upgrade to a 20Mbits connection is significant. http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/11/speedtestga.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/11/speedtestga.jpg (edit: does anyone here have a faster connection to the place where he lives?) (Typically its much slower (esp wrt latency, but throughput too, around 25ms/90Mbit/s down) though because for normal surfing I usually just use WLAN.)
- mosselman 14y agoIf the original post were about the difference between our connections I would have found it somewhat shocking, but honestly, a top rated hacker news post about a 5mb/s increase in speed from 10mb/s to 15... who cares?
