That's a fascinating read! I've always thought those systems are inherently fragile, prone to cascading failures. Reminds me of juggling chainsaws, really. Did anyone consider the impact of solar flares, though? Anyway, once, back in college, our entire network went down because someone accidentally unplugged the server during a pizza party. It took hours to figure out! Kind of like the blind leading the blind, fueled by caffeine and regret. What a blast those drift hunters days. A situation so stupid it became legendary.
