I genuinely take the effort to write em dashes quite often, certainly in formal documents or publications. So for me that's not a tell-tale sign of AI usage. Your analysis of the pacing of the article on the other hand — spot on.
If you look at their lab [0], it seems his NAS is separate from his kubernetes nodes. If he hasn't tuned his networking and NAS to the maximum, network storage may in fact add a LOT of delay on IOPS. Could be the difference between fractions of a millisecond vs actual milliseconds. If your DB load is mostly random reads this can really harm performance. Just hypothesizing here though, since it is not clear whether his DB storage is actually done on the NAS.
If you use HDR 4k or even 5k screens and are looking for a decent framerate, the maximum cable length is quite short (on the order of 3m for an UHBR10 DP40).
There exist solutions for that with active cables or optical cables, but that quickly gets expensive and complicated.
Yes, the article is indeed a simplification. Google fonts also checks for font format (eg woff2, ttf, otf...) compatibility based on user agent and changes the files served depending on your browser.
To websites that talk about declining quality and then return a 403 for tor users: sweep your own front door first please! I have the luck to be able to circumvent via a residential IP, but users from oppressive regimes may be less fortunate.
It can be hard during live performances, because it can incur large jumps in the sheet music which can be annoying to follow. Not a problem if you learned the pieces by heart or have a pageturner, but this is not always feasible or the case.
