  • Depends on the docs but if they’re written well you’re best served by reading them in full. Rftm before looking at best practices and tips.

    Problem is a lot of people don’t understand how to read a doc. There’s a terminology, phraseology, syntax. I have so many instances of people who say they didn’t see the answer in the docs and then you look and it’s right there. But the human mind tends to discard info it doesn’t understand how to process.

    If you think you know how the Internet works but haven’t read the RFCs you might not know as much as you think you do. Read pretty much every one on ipv6 because the second hand resources are absolutely garbage.















  • No one really flies a 747 in a modern world because 4 engines are less efficient than 2 engines…and gas is really expensive so it increases your ticket price inordinately compared to a 777 which can hold less people but get those people there cheaper. Think dollar cost per seat.

    You have some 747 cargo jets still which can get away with it due to it still being one of the best for moving a large number of heavy goods.

    Basically…it’s a white elephant. Now they own a depreciating asset that they cant get rid of and has a massive upkeep cost or a high cost of fuel.

    DJT said it’s the DOD’s…but the DOD doesnt need a 747. Maybe they can make it into a new AF1. Keep in mind the current AF1 looks like a 747 but it’s really a VC-25 - a military variant. There’s already an open contract with Boeing to replace it with the new VC-25b since the current plane is 25-30 years old.



  • It’s relevant in that it’s entirely misleading. If profits are low they aren’t actually able to just “coast along” making less revenue.

    Crowdstrike posted a GAAP Net Loss of 20 million for 2025. So a 30-50M cost savings is the difference in continuing on at all or not. There’s more to it than that, obviously.

    Your point is (probably) valid once you fix your words which is what I assume you mean by saying it’s not relevant. But, instead of telling people their rebuttal is irrelevant you should try to adjust your own words to convey your message more accurately.

    The quarterly profit motive where CEOs are incentivized through bonus structures to focus on short term profit goals leads to situations where the companies product or service is substandard and they make bad long term decisions that affect the lives of many including their own employees when they over hire and then can no longer afford to pay them.
