I was reading Jason Gorman’s article “The Wall Confronting Reliable Coding Agent Autonomy” and he says: the journey from 90% to 99% reliability is just as hard…
Anyone who is actually responsible for the uptime of anything understands the difference between 3 nines and 4 nines and how significant it is to gain or lose a nine.
a “large” number like 99.999% looks impressive, and 99.9999% is more impressive
Idea: if we run two servers, we could count as 199.9998% !!! /s

I thing the first nines are most important (9% vs 99%)
The first nine would 90% then it would go straight to 0%
