Random Thoughts of the Day: June 29th 2019

Sorry it's been a while, I've been working and have been super tired recently. I was thinking about how much industry and business and everything there is, and as consumers it all just seems so simple. Go online, order stuff, go to a store, get an Uber, use your phone or computer, etc but reading about some of the stuff it is so complicated. Virtualization servers, edge and datacenter servers, manufacturing processes, all the logistics, all the time and effort, there's an 18500 mile (30000km) long essentially cable that goes from San Francisco to Hawaii, through other islands, to Australia, and then back to the US. There is a 39000km cable that stretches from Northern Europe to Australia and then to South Korea. There are things in space that let us talk to each other. Just wow. Humans are pretty cool.
