All my homies HATE Broadcom
@SwiftOnSecurity isn't broadcom the company that delivered SoCs to that one pro-cop single-board computer company
@SwiftOnSecurity It's a target-rich environment but I think I'd put Nvidia ahead of Broadcom. Although one of these days they'll probably try to merge.
@wollman @SwiftOnSecurity oof, don't speak that evil into being
@SwiftOnSecurity This is all so hard for those of us that have both spent decades architecting VMware solutions and also admired the VMware culture.
@SwiftOnSecurity At one point during the great hardware shortage we considered evaluating Broadcom NICs as a third option behind Mellanox and Intel. One of my favorite colleagues’ opposition was that “We should not bother to test Broadcom or anything else we find in the garbage behind Fry’s”
@controlledburn @SwiftOnSecurity it's the only company that wasted 4 hours of debugging packet loss only to have it be fixed by: rmmod bnxt_en && modprobe bnxt_en.
@SwiftOnSecurity I thought these were the network engineers reacting to the HPE Juniper merger?
