These benchmarks on @fastly's Compute@Edge vs Cloudflare workers are seriously flawed.The biggest problem is that they conflate network round trip time with “execution at edge” time. CF is measuring cherry-picked RTT instead of edge compute performance. From their blog:

I'm hearing reports that the The Patea River has emptied out (at high tide). Is that confirmable or just panic #eqnz

Hedge funds are complaining about losing billions on GameStop, which means it’s a good time to invest in whatever company makes the world’s tiniest violins.

@miyagawa Actually laughed out loud.

I have been working at Fastly on the Control Systems Engineering team for ~5 years, which is a long time! The team is amazing, but I got an opportunity I can't pass up and I am switching teams. My former team is hiring to fill my place 👇 https://t.co/ZVldmYQ359

Joe Biden will inherit from Trump: The worst economy since the Great Depression, the worst public health crisis in 100 years, massive wealth inequality, the existential threat of climate change, a racist immigration system. These unprecedented crises demand unprecedented action.
