Took me 25 to understand this kind of stuff.
Have you seen the status page of the servers?
Are you telling me you build something like this in a week?
Come on… the model had to be released before R1 could grab too much attention. I am sure it wasn’t planned to do it just yet.
So there is a lot manual labor included - might even be physically unloading boxes of hardware…
But saying this:
You really mean that? How much money did they make by letting a few hundret users wait a couple of weeks? You really think they made that for the money? They are building datacenters for 500 billion at the moment.
Don’t tell me your company never did a release because marketing told you to do that while devs said it is not production ready yet. That’s the core method of software deployment of 99% of all companies in the world.
And when you do a websearch of your companies name and combine it with keywords like “problems” I am sure you’ll see what I mean.
