I've been playing a new video game today. It's called, "Try to sync your work Office, personal iCloud, and family Google calendars." It's pretty hard. So far after several hours I am still failing level 1.

This is wild! I was also at WebMD at the same time (working on their ontology-powered search engine, then on WebRN). And hearing Rich talk about it reminds me of what a ride it was.
BTW if you work in computing and are curious about what operating a big site was like back then, I was a guest on an episode of the Ship It podcast where I talked to @justingarrison.com and @withenoughcoffee.com about it.

We’ve definitely struggled with defining the term “serverless” for a while now. This article from 2022 by @technosophos.bsky.social sums it up! www.fermyon.com/blog/serverl...
The best definition I have in 2025 is…

It’s one thing to get to help friends out. Even better when the result is so. Fucking. Good. Go find a Fermyon and ask them for a demo of their platform on GKE. You won’t be disappointed
It is fair to say that we at @fermyon.com are fanatical about compute performance and scaling.
But working with the GKE team’s new Autopilot VM scaling has helped us achieve load adaptive scaling from the VM through Kubernetes and on into Fermyon Platform.
It’s wow

I suppose taking on Cloudflare Workers is (and AWS and Azure) are good points to make. As a CloudFlare Workers user I'd be interested on how could I deploy non-WASM loads like static web pages to this and pass traffic through to API. Or deploy e.g. a .NET Api to edge. The whole flow, so to speak. :)
