Cloudflare maintenance in Atlanta datacenter

This post is a few minutes from the start of this event, in between 2023-08-17 05:00 and 2023-08-18 22:00 UTC, see https://cloudflarestatus.com .  If you use Cloudflare and watch the scheduled maintenance activity start or kicked in, you'd notice that resources got a blip, just for a second. They went out and a refreshed would make those affected resources return and its noticeable for websites.  In our end, everything seemed to be working fine, with a little, lag, if your eyes are set on to your traffic right now.  Here, we can see it's okay overall. Right?

Probing mobile networks

On 14 May 2010 we were scheduled to go to several places and decided while on the road to use our phones to check how signals for Globe and Smart would switch from typical GSM signal or 2G, 3G and HSDPA or 3.5G.

The phones we used are both SE with models of G502 for Globe and C902 for Smart. Both are 2G, 3G and HSDPA capable.

Going to Libis, Quezon City, the following were the routes we take:

From EDSA along Roxas Blvd > Gil Puyat > Finlandia > cross South Super Highway > Philippine National Railway > Dela Rosa, Pio del Pilar > Makati Medical Center > Dela Costa > cross Ayala Avenue > between RCBC building and Cityland > Gil Puyat > EDSA > Boni > EDSA Central > Shaw Blvd > Ortigas Center > San Miguel Ave > Julia Vargas > SM Pasig > Frontera > Ortigas Avenue > E. Rodriguez > Eastwood City

Going to back to EDSA, Roxas Blvd, the following were the routes we take:

Eastwood City > E. Rodriguez > C5 > Kalayaan > EDSA, Roxas Blvd

Smart were consistent in 3G and were not able to detect HSDPA. Globe were able to switch on HSDPA, which has strong signal in places mentioned above (see bold texts), however 2G and 3G signals were also flickering in few areas along the way.

Philippine telcos blocking entire SMS text with internet addresses in it

If you are sending SMS texts to your friends, family or colleagues and they contain internet or web address including IP and email addresses, and even a period or dot separating, regardless of, your words and numbers, they are automatically blocked and not going to be received by your waiting recipient. Cooler heads must prevail here especially if an important message is urgently being expected. IP version 6 address is fine. However, an IPv4 including localhost address (given automatically to every computers and network interfaces as their own alone designed for troubleshooting purposes), and your money in the billion figure using dot as separators would be blocked.  If you send "local.business, naman.naman etcetera" or any words that made you use dot in between them, as part of the text, they will be blocked. There are some, that isn't blocked in this category. Like check.iclassed, some.ent, whatever.local etcetera, that is because they do not form any domain name at all

Online information provided for stakeholders' consumption

It must relay the true meaning and real application necessary in the physical world. We have probably all experience how to learn first thing about our plans before we go ahead and act. Like for instance, when we order something online, attend to some responsibilities for our organizations, communicate with people via video, chat and email including but not limited to asking stakeholders, very politely and sincerely, if there's anything else we can do to help further. This online environment must make us work to facilitate and relay exactly what we expect and do in the physical world. What the online information is telling us should be enough to readily make a decision and act accordingly. This is especially true when people have to do it themselves, read relevant information and will go there, say store, or anywhere else, to perform the chores required.  We cannot provide information online, when customers expect them to be a guideline or instruction to do something, that we know
