Show HN: SadServers – Test your Linux troubleshooting skills
sadservers.com
An error occurred (VcpuLimitExceeded) when calling the RunInstances operation: You have requested more vCPU capacity than your current vCPU limit of 64 allows for the instance bucket that the specified instance type belongs to. Please visit http://aws.amazon.com/contact-us/ec2-request to request an adjustment to this limit.
I've long wanted for some sort of mock, "things are broken - I want to see how you think" approach for sysad
Seems like it's out of capacity: An error occurred (VcpuLimitExceeded) when calling the RunInstances operation: You have requested more vCPU capacity than your current vCPU limit of 64 allows for the instance bucket that the specified instance type belongs to. Please visit http://aws.amazon.com/contact-us/ec2-request to request an adjustment to this limit. Maybe something like https://leaningtech.com/webvm-server-les…
Mitigation: reducing servers life time temporarily so more people can try.
Yup, that's what I was afraid of.

Yes, HN effect lol-sob. Mitigation: reducing servers life time temporarily so more people can try.
> It's also my not-so-secret hope that a sophisticated enough version of SadServers could be used by tech companies (or for companies that carry on job interviews on their behalf) to automate or facilitate the Linux troubleshooting interview section. Yup, that's what I was afraid of.
Heck, I'm not even asking for an email (and I had to do extra session management coding for that).
Earlier quoted context omitted.

Usually I roll my eyes when someone posts their own website to HN and it crashes under load. But given the nature and complexity of yours I think there's room for understanding and patience :)
