Classic enterprise: we saved money by moving from on-premise to Cloud.
Me: go on...
Classic enterprise: yeah, when we saw the bill go up, we had an emergency task force to optimize usage.
Me: why didn't you do that before?

One of the strengths of the Cloud, not to be underestimated: immediate cost feedback.

> On November 28th, 2012, Randall Munroe published an xkcd comic that was a calendar in which the size of each date was proportional to how often each date is referenced by its ordinal name (…) "In months other than September, the 11th is mentioned substantially less often than any other date. It's been that way since long before 9/11 and I have no idea why." After digging into the raw data, I believe I have figured out why.

So, on average, poll respondents guessed that a Netflix Open Connect server uses ~2.3W per simultaneous user. Based on some real user feedback & https://openconnect.netflix.com/en/appliances/#the-hardware, the number is probably closer to 20mW. It could even be a lot lower. So the right answer is definitely "<0.5W"!

Deep Down the Rabbit Hole: Bash, OverlayFS, and a 30-Year-Old Surprise

Hat tip to John Kemp for admitting that he was wrong to blame Spain's blackout on excessive reliance on inverter-based renewables and insufficient inertia, and 👏 for his very decent explainer on what actually happened. https://jkempenergy.com/2025/06/19/spains-blackout-blamed-on-poor-voltage-control/
