@gkrnours @0xabad1dea Ooh ooh, I can answer this!
Given that 100% is hard to reach and 0% is not, we can use a simpler version of the logit function and take log₁₀(1÷(1−.89)) = ~0.96 which means it's still a tad below 1 "nine".
(The full logit function is log₁₀(x÷(1−x)) and is useful when both 0% and 100% are hard/impossible to reach.)
Nine fives
@0xabad1dea Once upon a time, at a small entertainment company that rhymes with 'misery', I was responsible for the operations of the Github Product.
It came as a vmdk. No documentation.
I was told "Backup" was as simple as snapshotting the VM.
It ran gunicorn.
There was no tuning, monitoring or built-in telemetry.
They refused to give us an extension on licensing when they forgot to cash our check, and shut it off from remote.
Every call was with techbros.
I cannot stress enough, how happy this makes me.
@0xabad1dea There's a 996 joke in here somewhere, I swear.
Edit: 996: one 9 of uptime, 9-0 incidents, and the third nine in "90 days" is upside down lol. We can workshop it.
