Scaling up healthcare is not a matter of spinning up a new EC2 instance. We run health care at a level that can cope with normal situations, but would fail instantly in the case of say civil war or alien invasion. That's a choice, as a

Before say 1 in 100 went into hospital, meaning 100k infections means 1000 hospitalisations Now 1 in 1000 go into hospital, that's great from an individual basis and a population basis. Still means that 1 million infections leads to 1,

Did the original Windows 95 even have a TCP/IP stack? I think the first copy came with MSN, but it wasn't until the Plus pack that it came with a browser. IE4 was the active desktop and wasn't out until September 1997.

Obviously your server would be on a DMZ vlan, probably on its own. Set it to automatically take security updates every night and aside from some zero days I'm not sure what security issues you'd have.

You can always run routeros on X86 hardware. I think the problem with things like mangle rules run into. Had loss and a hell of a lot of reorders at just 500mbit through a CCR1036 the other week, disabled 100 or so mangle rules and it vanis

Yes, mikrotiks separate bridges, vlans, interfaces. If you want to set ether 3, 4 and 5 to untagged vlan called "Alf" with ID 11, ether 6 to untablled vlan "Bob" (id 12), and ether 7 and 8 to a trunk of both Alf and Bob,

A big complaint about routeros6 is the time it takes for a full BGP table to converge - especially on the top-of-range cloud core routers. I don't deal much with IXPs, but I did hear somewhere that there were a shockingly high number o

Lots of changes in v7 around routing, but this seems like a reasonable time to start work on it. Still seems to be missing certain features - like showing what routes you're advertising to a BGP peer, so certainly not ready for use. Of
