Thanks Tim! I am glad it was minor overall as well. I definitely agree that there are a lot of good metaphors and analogies in the auto industry, and it was fun to explore one of them.
Brian, I have a topic that confuses some of us that perhaps you can shed some light on in the future. No rush, or just ignore the idea. No pressure. When to use or not use- VM, Containers, Cloudflare Workers, or just a mini computer (NUC) at the edge or near edge.
I got the first level understanding, and maybe the 2nd level. But, they are not all interchangeable. At some point they have a limit (like connectivity to the internet) or a storage limit, or a complexity limit, scale limit, cost...
It would be interesting to hear you wrap it all up in a bow in like 3-4 paragraphs. π
Maybe that is easier said than done, but it is a complement that I thought of you!
"Sometimes bad user experience is good user experience", what a great line.
the "punch in the head" had me chuckle, only because I knew you came out of this ok, glad you are ok, hope the "insurance system" is as efficient as the "road system".

First of all, I am glad that you are okay.
There are so many good analogies and stories that can be told in the auto industry.
Why Do Cars Have Brakes?
Cars have breaks so they can go faster.
Companies have risk management programs so they can take risks.
There are four primary ways to handle risk in the professional world, no matter the industry, which include:
Avoid risk
Reduce or mitigate risk
Transfer risk
Accept risk

In case it is useful in the meantime, I wrote about a lot of the same ideas in Chamber of Tech Secrets #6. https://brianchambers.substack.com/p/chamber-of-tech-secrets-6
That is excellent. I am going to read through it!
That's the second "Edge" request. Ask and you will receive.
Oof that's tough. Glad you're alright!
Thanks Nate!

I hope so, too! Thanks Jacob!
