Lost in datacenter
Today I have visited datacenter of arabian telecom. Niiiiiice!!! Looks like paintball playing area or like old ruins from some 3d shooter: old monitors stacked near the wall, signs with "WARNING DO NOT ENTER SHOOT ON SIGHT" everywhere. The guard has checked everything very carefully, but after that surprised me by welcoming to Saudi and wishing me nice stay here in very warm way. If I had fallen on some rack - probably would left half or Saudi Arabia without internet and telecommunications. In the news - "Saudi is upgrading from dial-up to fiber and in the end of this year will replace 256kbps connections with 30mpbs links for almost the same price" (news in the paper regarding internet for private individuals).
