Requirements engineering can be extremely draining regardless of it. What's that? We're three years into this six months project and you just realized again that you don't understand your own job, don't understand the le

Slightly less than half, and the bottom half, so that people just skimming over it will mostly remember the DC operators' problems, not Cloudflare's own. This is very deliberately manipulative.

Most likely, yes. They have enough customer lock-in that enough customers would stick with them even if it took them a week to rebuild everything from in other DCs.

Especially since it shouldn't matter why the DC failed — Cloudflare's entire business model is selling services allegedly designed to survive that. 99% of the fault lies with Cloudflare for not being able to do their core job.

A lot of "native" apps are just thin wrappers around web components, since it's a lot cheaper to develop.

Azure AD is distinct from both Azure and AD, so the naming never made much sense. Switching over to "Entra ID" is probably the only actually useful rebranding Microsoft did in the past 30 years.

Technically yes, it's a virtual device, but not all wifi hardware is capable of running two networks at the same time, Apple carefully selected the "usual" hardware to support this.

All that applies to regular kv stores abstracted through filesystems and block device layers just fine. But when your latency requirements are so tight that you cannot possibly afford the latency penalty of a filesystem, you better have

Forth is easy to make custom hardware for, even if it's a poor fit for the commonly available hardware architectures. RPN + Stack lends itself to a very simple implementation (no registers needed, easy layouting, etc.).

Latency ought to be much better, since you're skipping several abstraction layers in the kernel. But that's about it. And the latency is still worse than in-memory solutions. Between that and the non-trivial effort needed to make

Stability is solid, but so is Linux's usually. Even the unholy trinity of AMD iGPU + Nvidia Optimus dGPU + X¹¹ hasn't caused any driver issues yet for me. Usability, YMMV. Out of the box it's okay-ish, but it's hard to i
