  • Customer: Why is there so much latency over my tunnel from us-east to us-west?

    Me: checks latency seems pretty normal, what’s the issue?

    Customer: The latency is too much. Why is it not as fast as us-east-1 to us-east-2?

    Me: They are near each other. Us-West is across the entire United States

    Customer: Make faster

    Me: This is the speed of light. And over copper it’s about 2/3 that

    Customer: hmm are you sure that’s as fast as it can go?

    Me: Well, unless we change the laws of physics your not going to get any better latency

    Yeah, but if you aren’t being sold subscription services, then there’s no stream of recurring revenue, and if that happens quarterly earnings won’t show a graph going up. Which means shareholders can’t go afford their backup vacation house and CEOs yachts will be a few inches shorter. Honestly, think of the yachts next time.
