I don't think that's necessarily true.

I have spent months on projects that benefit a small subset of a service that's a small dependency of another service that's ultimately only used in emergency/outage situations.

It was absolutely essential for the company to have these systems in place, but I was under no illusion that I'd actually see them used during my time in the team because disasters of the necessary magnitude are rare.

So seeing the user journey and understanding the importance did nothing for my feeling on disconnection from what I'm working on.

So I emphasize with the original poster a lot on this.

This seems pretty cool!

Question: Does this take into account memory bandwidth and caches between cores? Because getting them wrong can easily make parallel programs slower than sequential ones.

Honestly, yes, I don't think Microsoft Google and Apple would do something like this.

Been using hetzner storage boxes for borg backup for >5 years. Works without issue for multiple TB of backups. Every maintenance downtime so far has been announced in advance.

> Really? Is that a serious reason? Key-loggers are still very much possible because any program can read the memory of all other running programs of the same user.

That's not true. Reading other processes memory requires root even for processes of the same user.
