Lol seriously GCP only lets me have 8 IPs in use on a project by default? That's ... low. #MastoAdmin
... and 2-3 business days to review a request for a measly 16? Yikes. These quotas are tiny.
@tw In practice (I use GCP heavily, both professionally and personally) I've found the approval delay to be sub-hour.
@jcl sure enough, 3 minutes. Wonder if that was an under-paid TVC or a computer... #ShadowWorkforce
@jcl of course I know Google so it'll probably be at least 20-30 more minutes before it propagates everywhere. #EventualConsistency
@tw Aye, the active exposure of the error space, and very specifically the hardline maintenance of their error budget (they actively inject errors and faults when their rates get too low) is one the the things I like so much about GCP.
@tw I'd bet dollars to donuts it is just a small not-quite expert system. Ditto for AWS and Azure -- otherwise it doesn't scale.
