9 hours agoYou’re completely missing what he’s saying, and how that number is calculated. It’s an average connection speed over time and you’re anecdotally saying your internet is superior because you have a higher connection speed, which isn’t really true at all.
You have residential internet which is able to provide 3Gbps intermittently. You may even be able to sustain those speeds for several days at a time. But servers maintain those connections for months and years at a time…
800TB/mo is 2.469 Gb/s sustained for 30 days. They may be on a 10Gb/s connection, but that doesn’t mean they have enough demand to saturate it 100% of the time.
No actual professional company or job of value is not going to check your curriculum or your work history… So like sure you may get that job at quality inn as a night manager making $12 an hour because they didn’t fucking bother to check your resume…
But you’re not getting some CS job making $120,000 a year because they didn’t check your previous employer. Lol
