  In reality, 90% of the infrastructure involved in Netflix or CDN distribution goes over the ISP's infrastructure. The division of labor ...

  @gyrfalcon Show me a place where I can get a free 10 Gbps port at an Internet Exchange, and where you can get a free 10 Gbps Ethernet switch, and I'll give you my youtube account.

  @analogtoobz If Comcast had gotten Netflix's CDN business and they wanted to push a lot of content over the peering connection to Level 3, Level 3 would have asked for payment.

  At the end of the day, Level 3 wants to *sell* access to Comcast's infrastructure without paying Comcast and Comcast wo...

If it meets the Euro 4 standards and gets 59 miles per gallon, it's infinitely better than those little motor bikes. If you've ever been in Asia, you almost want to pass out whenever one of those small motor bikes pass you by. When I flew back from China and landed in SFO, I walked out into the...

  @NASAPAV Is the skin aluminum too?

  How is it bolted on to the ribs, metal rivets? I'm assuming you don't want any rivets towards the front of the airfoil?
