Also increased responsibility. You can seriously injure or kill someone with a forklift (I’ve seen someone drive the forks through the side of a fully loaded Cisco router once...)

I may be mis-communicating what I am trying to say. I once had the (mis)pleasure of dealing with some novice DBAs. There were instances in the data model where things were so recursively linked that one query would fan out to 200+ to actual

In that case I apologize for the prior tone. I will check it out now that you have stated it is a bug. Thanks!

Already on my nope not even gonna try it list. The demo page does that annoying crap where it tries to prevent you from navigating to your prior site. I thought that trend peaked in like 2001.

I don’t think the issue they worked on adult sites. I think the issue is they worked on AdultFriendFinder, who basically didn’t care about user privacy.

DRY like anything can be properly used or misused. For example, you can normalize a database so much that any basic query comes with a massive overhead (recursion). There is a middle ground between "religion" (pure DRY) and "

It’s not a USG power play. It just so happens that a large portion of internet engineers and architects live in the United States.

I am not a big-data guy but wouldn't it be along the lines of A) get a big honking server B) fire up "X" SQL server C) Allocate 95-98% of the RAM to DB cache?

You're insane. His site facilitated numerous drug deals for profit. He also paid bitcoin in what he thought was a hit-job (he was duped). This dumbass can rot in prison. Screw him.

I tried GeForce now. Maybe it’s because I am a fairly heavy casual FPS gamer, but the input lag was very noticeable. Neat concept and I hope it can get better!

Yup your point is true about having to manage N(N-1) number of vpc peering related components. I don’t ever deal with more than 10 VPCs at a time. Maybe you have world-conquering aspirations and need insane scale ;D

Interesting concept - is this designed to be used independent of some kind of infrastructure as code tooling? I do all of my VPC peering and route-table manipulation via terraform repos today, so I am curious what the benefit of using this
