I think highscalability blog needs a Ticketmaster breakdown / challenge and some kind of traffic simulation for someone to prove they can do better.. how can confirming ticket availability spin for 15 mins before timing out?

UK has a serious problem: we're great at AI and createch start-ups but bad at supporting them to scale. We lose too many great firms and our greatest talent overseas. We're becoming an 'incubater economy'. This needs to change if we're really serious about economic growth. ๐Ÿงต1/
