I’ve never run a big system like this, but like the lead character in the story, I always figured exponential backoff would be enough. Turns out there’s more.

Very interesting, thanks for this article. It’s funny how I notice ever more repetition of phenomena through different branches of engineering; metastable failure caused by feedback loops is possible both in mechanical and electrical engineering. Named differently though, resonance and ringing, respectively.
