daily test restore is infeasible for anything but toy projects.
You should periodically test your restore procedures, but its incredibly costly and time consuming for sizeable platforms. Its just not that easy to restore a 10+TB backup for example, and thats a _tiny_ backup size for a b2c product.
they can easily go into the hundreds of TB, depending on your platform.
and i might add: i vividly remember gitlabs article how they have had automated backups and test restores for years, but when they actually needed them... it turned out some data wasn't part of it after all. just because youre testing your restore procedure doesnt mean you've actually accomplished anything.
Being a racist and having racist beliefs is not a crime that should be punished by law. You'd be fully in the territory of thought crime at that point.
To my knowledge, Trump has not actually taken discriminatory actions nor proposed any legislature to systematically oppress people again.
the term racism is getting thrown around so much nowadays it hardly has any meaning anymore...
these things change quiet quickly.
Ask any zoomers (which i might add arent young anymore either, the first ones'll start turning 30 next year!) if its rude to glance at the phone mid conversation.
Gen Y/X generally considered that extremely rude, while gen Z started to see it as completely normal.
> The latency issue is increasingly disappearing or at least becoming negligible in most population centers
I believe that thats your experience. Its not really because the technology is improving though, its because you're growing older.
The latency is absolutely horrendous, and anyone thats used to a decently performing system will not agree with your opinion.
As a simple example: i can easily code 6+h with no break on a good system, with these mainframe system i'm gonna take a break at least every hour because the fatigue builds up so quickly.
Its every little interaction, simple input that doesn't appear for 50+ms, switching owrkspaces thats delayed for 150+ms.
