Donald Trump’s interview with Elon Musk got off to a rough start Monday night after being delayed due to technical issues, but once the talk began listeners noticed something else was off: Trump’s speech.“Why is Trump slurring his S sounds” asked author Kurt Andersen. “Shuch a shad s----uation’?”The...
A competent company of this size would have auto-scaling.
I don’t think auto-scaling can scale to resources that don’t exist. Besides, I’m not sure how many people with both the competence and the spine to advise Musk when he’s doing A Stupid again still remain at the company.
Leverage cloud resources like AWS. These are solvable problems for a competent team.
Oh absolutely, provided you’re versed enough to understand the resource limitations, the need to prepare scaling solutions and have the willingness to admit that your in-house resources might not be enough. I’m not confident Musk ticks any of these boxes, let alone all of them.
And a competent team can only do so much. He ripped out data center servers, against his competent sysadmins’ advice.
Musk’s in-house resources are enough except he fired them all.
That’s what I was trying to allude to. Whoever is left is either not competent enough or unwilling to call him out (possibly because being employed is generally more important than being right).
On the other hand, it may be that whoever is left there is actively sabotaging these broadcasts. More power to them, if so.
AWS can scale quite a bit but they don’t do it for free.
Given all the cuts I’m doubtful they’re willing to pay the price
Competence is not a money maker!
Or welcomed by anything GOP
didn’t musk cut a bunch of contracts for that sort of thing?
