Hmmm... good post, I guess. But aren't WiFi 6 and StarLink being built by 
people who have proved their genius by being billionaires?
 
It's sad, though, to read through the comments. There's a whole 'nother world 
out there now.
Apparently the world of commenters are largely convinced bufferbloat doesn't 
exist, and never did.
 
Perhaps that is our problem? We are hallucinating and disconnected from reality?
 
I constantly hear that IETF attendees don't believe it is a problem. And folks 
like Andy Bechtolsheim get loads of VC money to create Ethernet 10+ GigE 
switches that are full of buffers, therefore creating lots of lag under load in 
datacenters where they buy this gear because Andy is famous. AndyB's company 
even produce white papers that claim more buffers improves performance by 
keeping all the links running at wirespeed (the hell with latency).
 
And some of the commenters seem to want to insult Jim Gettys, too, by name, 
saying that he "got it wrong".
 
I've concluded that COVID-19 reflects a general infection of brains with some 
kind of arrogant ignorance, including many of the folks who get boondoggles 
from their company to attend IETF.
 
But it may be the opposite, after all. Maybe we folks don't understand what is 
true in this real Bizarro World, and bufferbloat is a hoax like COVID. Q is 
probably right, and we are probably all pederasts like Hillary Clinton.
