I mean it was, because it made headlines.

Every newssite is headlining Tina Turner being dead, which, you know, bad timing and all, but even so, lol.

The unprecedented numbers would have taken any server down. No server anywhere in the world could have handled that kind of popularity and number of viewers."

To be fair i dont think i have seen a company yet who can have the focused attention of the internet and handle it super well, because the whole architecture has so many failure points and most companies cheap out on server power

Youtube handle at least 1.5m people on Sony's main channel for their live hour showcase today. And that's just the main channel. There were countless other livestreams going simultaneously. Like IGN had almost a million alone.

Twitch, Youtube, and FB all have orders of magnitude higher live streams going round the clock 365.

nah its not hard to do streaming live video at scale these days its very cacheable. i worked somewhere we supported 1.5 million concurrents live and the servers were not even breaking a sweat. that was 10 years ago at <not a tech giant by any stretch>

yeah, thats fair, but comparing anyone to the faang companies is kinda particle man vs universe man.

Youtube at least iirc hugely compensates for that by having different server farms and local storage in different parts of the country and such

Elong fired all the folk who coulda done that, or sold them iff for parts, lol

Guess i just meant how often companies will launch stuff and day one servers get hammered so hard the whole thing goes down

Sacks also tried to make up some weird excuse how it crashed because Musk has so many followers, which has nothing to do with the Twitter Space.

I watched counterstrike this past weekend with nearly 2 million other people at the same time and it worked fine. Maybe meatball should have contacted twitch instead.

I noticed that! Shrek streamed beautifully for me, all the way through, and I paused multiple times to do actual work. Meanwhile normal short videos sometimes won't play, only play part-way, etc.
