37signals Datacenter Overview

I don't know much about BaseCamp, but I suspect it is a web application. I see they're using BGP Anycast to serve to the closest location. I looked in their further article for more detail but there wasn't really much information, but how does BGP Anycast work with TCP? I'm guessing they're doing everything best effort and hoping that when a route is chosen between Chicago & Virginia, that the closest path is taken at all times and there's no path "jitter" between Chicago & Virginia, e.g. a SYN packet won't go to Chicago and the following SYN+ACK go to Virginia.

Anyone have any insights?

Carbon neutral is a joke. How much carbon did it take to build the machines? Their power comes from renewable energy, but our renewable infrastructure is still being built with oil. Nothing is carbon neutral until we completely transition away from oil. Until then, it's all carbon at the base layer.

We need to get off oil as quickly as possible and use our remaining carbon budget to build the non-carbon infrastructure. Until then it's all just marketing.

Did they un-rename the company from Basecamp back to 37signals?

Why all caps?
