I believe he said he's paying for 1.5 Gbps capacity over a 10 Gbps uplink (though it's currently only set at 1 Gbps and needs to be fixed). So the maximum shared bandwidth is 1.5 Gbps, but he has physical headroom if he needs more

> You’ll find F2XM1, which computes in a swoop (2𝑥−1) – a kind of pauper’s fused multiply-add, some twenty-five years ahead of its time. No. It computes pow(2, x) - 1. Suppose x is close to 0, so that pow(2, x) is close to 1, like 1.0000

This article says `readfile` would return the number of bytes read. It seems like it would be better for it to return the number of bytes in the file, but only write at most `bufsize` bytes into the buffer. That way, if the buffer isn'
