i thought they did DSA interviews at netflix what happened? I had to watch the fight on someone streaming to X from their phone at the event and it was better than watching on netflix..if you could watch at all. extremely embarrassing!
My theory is they've so heavily optimized for static content and distributing content on edge nodes that they were probably poorly setup for live-streaming.
This, I feel bad for their engineers who were told every bonus would be a matter of how low can they get the cost-per-GB of transferred data, leading to the glorious Netflix-in-a-box (https://openconnect.netflix.com/deploymentguide.pdf) and then management casually asks for a live show with a wildly different set of guarantee requirements.
