This is why you never trust the PFY after electrifying his keyboard. You might find the new trench you were digging to steal bandwidth from across the road has mysteriously been re-routed into the basement carpark where it runs right through the CEO's space where you've been parking your car ever since you discreetly reminded them of the company's zero-tolerance policy on computer misuse.

oohhboy posted:STRAIGHT STRAIGHT STRAIGHT. It's actually based on the true story of Spread Networks laying a nearly straight cable from Chicago to New York for high frequency trading. There was a chapter about it in the book Flash Boys. quote:Not all trading takes place in New York. By historical accident, derivatives such as futures and options are mostly traded on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, 720 miles away. So a few years ago, a company called Spread Networks began quietly buying up rights-of-way for a route that would lop about 140 miles off the shortest fiber-optic cable distance between the Chicago Merc and the communications hub of Carteret, New Jersey, the primary data center for Nasdaq. Existing networks tend to follow railroad lines and were designed to serve population centers, not to provide a point-to-point link for traders. Instead of dipping south toward Philadelphia, Spread’s route heads northwest through central Pennsylvania and then due west to Cleveland. Latency is typically measured in round-trip times (i.e., an order and a confirmation); the shortest cable route before Spread lit up its network in 2010 clocked a round-trip time of 14.5 milliseconds, according to Spread executives, but capacity was inadequate, so most customers had to settle for 15.9 milliseconds. Spread cut that to as little as 13.1 milliseconds for its premium “dark fiber” service, a connection that doesn’t have to be shared with other customers. Prices are a closely guarded secret in this world, although the consensus estimate among traders is “plenty.” https://www.wired.com/2012/08/ff_wallstreet_trading/2/ Microwaves are actually faster and straighter now.

Elon Musk’s Starlink is ostensibly about connecting the rural third world to the Internet, but the artesian cash well is high-frequency trading. The satellites orbit low enough that they undercut submarine cables on latency.

It doesn’t have to be one device. Pack a bunch of bombs in one place and when one detonates, they all do.

Platystemon posted:It doesn’t have to be one device. Yeah, sometimes "kiloton" doesn't refer to a hypothetical thousand tons of TNT. You'd need tens or hundreds of thousands of tons to match the yield of a real nuke but a large arsenal going up is close. A couple of times one military or another has actually done this deliberately as a test, the closest they've ever gotten was ~5 kilotons of ANFO which was about as powerful as 4kt of TNT or 1/4 of a Little Boy. haveblue fucked around with this message at 18:57 on Aug 5, 2019 |

People say you can't tell the difference between a proper artisan low oxygen nuclear weapon and an equivalent volume of regular explosives, but as we saw when the Russians lost the loudness war that just isn't the case. Anyway so we're putting another $100bn on the procurement budget right? I know a really good maker of hand crafted big red buttons.
