> It's not guaranteed, but much fewer points of failure.
Can you explain where this is relevant to buffering issues?
Also, you are very wrong regarding failure modes. The larger the service, the more failure modes it has. Moreover, in monoliths if a failure mode can take down/degrade the whole service, all other features are taken down/degraded. Is having a single failure mode that brings down the whole service what you call fewer points of failure?
I can't, since I don't know Netflix's architecture - I was responding to "I'd love to hear exactly how a monolith application is guaranteed to perform better, with details."
I really only buy stuff from Amazon that is unlikely to be counterfeit. I haven't even had great luck with that approach. Better to go through the manufacturer's site, or a more reputable site.
The rising price of a house you own means very little if everything is going up - plus throw in inflation, interest rate, and taxes. If you move now, you are going to pay more unless you significantly downsize.
I think downsizing was always part of the original calculus.
The advice I’ve always heard was get a starter house, once you’ve got enough invested and more income upgrade, eventually downgrading to a bungalow which helps pay for your end of life.
However, bungalows are going for way more than other house types because of all the simultaneous demand.
Maybe someone who like losing work, like losing money, like his account being terminated for whatever puerile reason, likes being tracked and likes to see lots of ads.
Wait, I don't think such a person exists. Wrong market fit, Google!
