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...
The scheduled chat started 30 minutes late after Musk’s platform failed to launch a livestream, which Musk attributed to a “DDOS” attack. After the interview got underway, users were quick to point out that Trump didn’t sound as sharp as usual.
Sure thing, Lonnie. You were under DDOS. I believe that because it's not like your live chat with DeSantis was bogged down with tons of problems and this is a pattern. Fucking liar.
They probably just cut server costs to the bone to save money and they can't handle the load. Since their live streaming probably never gets traffic otherwise.
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.
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.
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).
I watched a video not long ago of him giving a tour at SpaceX. He was showing off the evolution of the rockets and he pointed out how the newer ones have fewer "fiddly bits" on the outside. And Muskovites think he's a real engineer or something.
