I love speculative fiction! I've been more interested in it ever since I started reading Ted Chiang - he also has great speculative short story collections like Stories of your life (which arrival was based on)

I'll be graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of Texas at Austin. I love thinking about computer science problems at scale. At my previous internship at Adobe, I designed, documented, and deployed an end-to-end pipeline to easily train and and run inference on thousands of generative fine-tune models.

The reason services like AWS or Azure are distributed is so that your resources are not concentrated which helps with fault tolerance. If your datacenter goes down, your whole service goes down. Also as was mentioned in other comments, asynchrony also applies in the same datacenter.

I doubt it's adobe flexing its muscle, afaik, the DOJ is still looking into the Adobe/Figma merger. Currently Figma and Adobe are operating independently.
