Screenshot from Tailscale's blog post with the following text highlighted: "I read a post recently where someone bragged about using kubernetes to scale all the way up to 500,000 page views per month. But that's 0.2 requests per second. I could serve that from my phone, on battery power, and it would spend most of its time asleep."

👏 more 👏 developers 👏 need 👏 to 👏 hear 👏 this
I can count on one hand the number of my clients over the past couple of years who haven't either over-architected for scale or were unnecessarily concerned about it (prior to coming to me for strategic advice, of course 😉).
You don't need to understand Distributional Little's Law to figure this out, it's obvious with primary school level math.
