Waiting for 30 minutes to access the Web site of the Road Safety Authority, the Irish equivalent of the DMV. Too bad they don't have physical offices where I could queue personally...

That's just crazy. I think they need to increase their server budget.

I bet the constraint here isn't what's serving the website but either an external dependency that they don't have control over so that can't scale or a relational database that they didn't have the budget or expertise to scale

Edit: or just that humans have to actually look at it and you're waiting to talk to one

My local government does it all async to avoid that issue

yeah yeah yeah but how can we get the rage about sensible and rational issues like that???

[–] [email protected] 25 points 7 months ago (3 children)

that's not a rational issue though. the correct way would be to make the process asynchronous.

No thanks, I prefer my internet experience to be linear and iterative with no fail backs for any exceptions. C'mon dead process without an error report!

Zombocom is pure internet

Ah sorry, I wasn't clear - I meant the way the issues were sensibly and rationally outlined!

A queue to see the website does make the process asynchronous.
