A good read is "Billion Dollar Whale", which details the 1MDB scandal that actually funded the Wolf of Wall Street movie. Jho Low scammed ~$5 Billion, and used some of the funds to befriend Leonardo DiCaprio (by throwing lavish pa

> their main concern is getting a working product out the door Yes. You'd be horrified if you saw how many game-specific hacks each GPU driver had. Patching their horrors in drivers. So sad.

Am I wrong, or all this ends up doing is round-robin DNS, which is no good for a geographic CDN?

I write retro console emulators for fun, so agree with you 100% :)
