Wrong. When you build a customer a Metro fiber circuit, the ring is already built, often years before. You simply pull wavelengths out of the fiber and drop them off at at the meet-me room in the POP. Source: I used to do this. >"It

You don't need to check all your systems just the area where you are deploying bulldozers and backhoes into. Further enumerating all base stations and their geo coordinates in a GSM network is trivial.

They are moving some production to Vietnam, starting with some Macbooks: https://www.investopedia.com/apple-moves-production-vietnam-... I imagine once Apple is confident they will likely add more products there.

This is all complete gibberish. Packets per second is based on the lower bound and Jumbo Frames denotes an MTU or upper bound. Further switches don't aggregate smaller Ethernet frames into Jumbo frames. Packet per second also has zero

Two severe layoffs so close together followed by "significant structural changes" resulting in "forming two business units." I'm imaging morale and worker productivity are both in the toilet.

Indeed. In fact 10 days ago the IMF upgraded their outlook for the global economy in 2023.[1] These layoffs and their accompanying statements from the CEO talking about "challenging macroeconomic environments" are really starting

This was kind of my point though. It's a really net-benefit to the company but couched as a severance benefit to the individual being laid off.

It's interesting the number of company layoffs recently that have listed "you can keep your laptop" as part of the severance package. Is it possible that shipping charges for layoffs of this size plus the overhead and personn

The parent was stating that two networks would be better but its none done because of costs. And that's complete nonsense. The fact that it's more difficult and complex to have two separate teams manage two separate networks means

That still doesn't make sense though. In the context of a WAN, a backbone is an external network. It routes between your POPs. At any rate, the margin of error and complexity in having two separate backbones networks managed by two sep
