I never understood why companies didn't simply leverage 24x7 internet MSPs.

They are able to staff 24x7 by spreading the cost over multiple customers and working through the process of making your application manageable by a 3rd party is super beneficial.

Most of these companies will also do performance monitoring and analysis as well.

They see issues and optimization opportunities across multiple applications and know more than a single team who's only built one.

This is interesting.

In CA you can lose custody of your children simply by having an argument with your spouse and "disturbing their peace of mind"

That is one of the legal definitions of "Domestic Violence"

Once they have you for "Domestic Violence" you automatically lose the right to have custody of your kids.

during these days my company was in a data center in Los Angeles next to "Web hosting for life" a company who's business model was based on a single upfront payment that got you hosting for "life". (Whatever that means). Their secret sauce was cages full of 19" Telco racks with shelves filled with motherboards, power supplies, and hard drives. No cases. Some of the hard drives were zip tied to the shelves. We'd tour potential customers through the data center and say "this is what shared hosting gets you, what if your site was bring served from that "server" with it's hard drive hanging by a broken zip tie?" It was a great sales technique.

Don't let fear paralyze you. If those pushing the boundaries censored themselves based upon the fear of being persecuted in the future, we'd have no progress.

What happens when each of our individual devices has enough compute to be our personalized AI based navigation system? Will it compete with the other AIs also on the road? Will it learn offensive techniques to expedite it's routes? Will your economic status allow your AI to access more data and be better? Will you be able to optimize your AI for family driving vs. competitive commuting?
