FWIW, we've been working on building a chat application. Still very much in beta stage, but trying to build something useful. https://joinbackchannel.chat

Not sure which telco that is - but in the UK, impact on emergency calls is taken into account for every change that happens. This was non-negotiable in the 15 years I spent at a telco.

I agree with this sentiment. I programmed in Erlang for more than a decade before Elixir came along and I couldn't see the point of it. When I first picked up Erlang in '99 it was a breath of fresh air. The simplicity of the langu

Waitrose in the UK is like that. They seem to place trust in the customer which feels nice. I don't know if they have some clever ways of monitoring customers, but it feels good not to be treated with suspicion. I've never had any

Yes, I agree. There are a few ways around that: - Some out of band signalling between the edge and the core to indicate current load levels at the core. - Implement similar form of overload protection at the core. You might now say, "Aha! B

Yes, it is possible. You have to ensure that every edge node is configured in such a way that it allows only a certain amount of traffic to a "inner" node. And if it finds that the inner node isn't as responsive as it should be, it has to s

The idea is that there is something very wrong with your design if you allow that to happen. In telco networks, once a message is accepted into a system, it is expected to be processed. You should throw away any messages you can't handle (b

How do people deal with staff who are quite clever, but write very complex code? I know a person who is a very good engineer in that he understands the underlying principles, but writes horribly complicated code. I'm trying to get him to wr
