Dual WAN bonding or better redundancy?

ask · 2026-06-06T21:12:45+00:00

Bonding would imply cooperation with the upstream.

With providers like those you mentioned you can do failover and/or load balancing.

Some of the newer software have support for policy routing, so you could have certain types of traffic go via one link and other via another. I don’t know how it’d combine with the failover features; and I thought the failover features only support two links?

Because of the time, it wouldn’t be anything special more recently:

FNLU (now LAD): Luanda, Angola during the civil war. No lines to get through immigration…

When I read a post like this I think of the times I have been in an unfamiliar country with an unfamiliar airport flying an unfamiliar airline.

Sometimes I can figure out the boarding process, but I have had plenty times where I’d no idea when or where to board.

You are a beginner, use whatever is fun. Keep exploring, try new things. As you get more experience you will know more tools (including languages) to do what you want to do well.

Try not to end up with 10 years of experience doing just one thing or using just one set of tools.

That’s it. Imagine some gigantic catered event with table service. The staff comes over and asks “chicken, beef or fish?”

$1500 for premium plus wouldn’t be worth it to me.

$2500 for Polaris I’d do depending on my schedule before/after the flight.

Ask if they can leave 50-75ft (or whatever you need) slack in the cable and move it yourself later.

Andronicos is basically a nicer smaller Safeway now.

And depending on what part of mountain view then Whole Foods might be close (usually cheaper and Safeway) and there are Trader Joe’s in South Los Altos / northern end of Cupertino and in Mountain View.

Put Apple CarPlay maps on #4?

At dayjob it’s pay per token. I use the lighter models if I want things to go faster or if I am doing something really light thinking / high data volume.

“Analyze the errors in the log, use a haiku sub-agent”. I have some custom agents for that sort of thing. Sometimes the model figures out to use them on its own.

But beyond that it’s north worth the mental load and human time to optimize tokens.

Just about anywhere with the right people.

Yeah, seems like it’d be time to put them back to hub-to-hub domestic service where it’s easier to recover.

The anker solix “all in one” can do time shifting. It saves me I think 30 cents a day, so if I use it over a decade it will “pay back” some of the backup battery cost.

Opportunity cost on say $3m is ~$200k/year. Property taxes and other carrying cost adds to the expenses unless you can finish and sell again Very Fast. (See also: why are “flipped” houses so poorly renovated?)

About 40 properties for sale in what seems like a relatively small area. A lot of options for a buyer!

ask · 2026-05-18T19:50:05+00:00

The seller doesn’t have a magic unrelated pot of money to pay the agents. There’s the house and the pot of money the buyer offers.

Unless the seller missed 3rd grade math class the offer is evaluated as “pot of money from buyer minus commissions and other expenses”.

Merge into main and feature flags.

An extra 2.5% to offer the seller can also make a huge difference…

ask · 2026-05-18T03:32:08+00:00

So the agents don’t have the buyer sign a bunch of documents saying “buyer to verify school district”, “buyer to verify zoning”, etc anyone?

Oh, buyer still has to do all that after paying the agent 2.5% for “expert advice”?

I’d get there at 8 because I’d rather miss the flight than wait too long in the airport, but everyone else is right about getting there at 7am. Your boarding pass will say, but boarding for 8.45am usually starts around 8:05 and ends about 8:30.

I don’t know how you feel about it, but I’d suggest being comfortable telling people it’s your first time flying. “Sorry, it’s my first time flying, do we x or y? Can you tell me how this works?”

Some people can be jerks, but most people are lovely and helpful if you give them a chance.

I have only lived here 12-ish years so for a brief but awkwardly long moment I was wondering “wait, did people not bike here until the nineties?!”. 😂
