I hopped on a bike for the first time in ~20 years a few years ago. Fell off the bike at one point, going pretty slow in objective terms but faster than I should have been given my experience - got a concussion and broke my nose as well as got two pretty deep cuts on my hand and ankle. When I took the helmet off the front had split open from the impact. What was a quick exam from a doctor who was on the trip could have easily turned into a ruined vacation with days in the hospital or worse, and this was a slight downhill grade where I was barely pedaling. The thought of falling off a bike without a helmet at any appreciable speed should be very frightening.
NAT is $1/day and ELB is 60cents/day. So those can't (although those costs excludes data transfer...) be the biggest line items.
CDK is also declarative - it generates a CloudFormation YAML file, so cannot possibly be anything else. Declarative is a property of a programming model, not a language.
is it really next to impossible to pay on time? i assume you can dispute if they claim late incorrectly
Really? Why? I don't see anything concrete coming out of web3 that would threaten the established big tech companies.
One reason I like SSR is that you need some form of SSR for public-facing websites anyway. Website previews (like in iMessage, Twitter, etc.) rely on Open Graph tags in the HTML, and these services expect the OG tags to be available without executing any JavaScript. Since you already need this step, you can make loading pages much faster if you inline any data you might have fetched from the client at view time.
It's interesting how they never question anything past that. That answer just kicks the can down the road.

Does this happen with other images? Do you wear glasses?

I do, and moving that image around my field of view gives a mild 3D effect. I've always suspected that my poly carbonate lenses have strong chromatic aberration[0], with reds being separated outwards (blues inwards) when viewed towards the edge of my lenses.[1] When moving that image around, the red areas move more than the blues, so yeah, that's a fake 3D effect.

[1] this is especially noticeable when I look at Microsoft's logo with the colored squares. I know that they are supposed to be equally spaced out, but they almost never look that way to me, especially when viewed in thumbnail form.
got it. okay. you can make a backup and continue executing in a smaller environment even if the rest of the network falls apart. I feel like that would be really hard to do with like AWS Lambda. Altneratively you can have just enough information to store the last relevant state and migrate to another system.

in the meantime you won't be charged for how much you read or how often. which was my main point. before this conversation, did you know that?

Umm ... No. This blanket statement is certifiably false that it only applies to a company running maybe 1 or 10, or at most 100 physical machines. My work needs across the world presence, networking, fault tolerance and a boat load of storage and compute. I cant shift all those to on-prem or a cheaper, alternative provider.

They are probably talking about building the cluster yourself, not the RDBMS itself. aws (and most other cloud providers) have this cluster management handled for you.
I worked at a startup that didn't use the cloud and was hemorrhaging money by only using a handful of compute in a DC despite renting a whole bunch of space/power. They could have moved to AWS and saved a ton on cost, but their CTO was comfortable with renting colo space and knew how to run a colo-based tech company. There's not much you can do when people make bad decisions. At most you can understand the tradeoffs of the decision space and do your best. There's rarely a silver bullet.
I've been doing that since 1965.

If you had been given extra time, you would have had less time to complete the project and compromised the deadline.

Your boss is the asshole here.

> Though I think, if you're already riding a bike regularly, you probably shouldn't switch to electric, because it'll definitely mean less workout.

If any part of your regular bike riding is for fun/exercise and not e.g. set commute trip, electric does not definitely mean less workout. It may mean less workout, but I'd argue that more likely it means you rides are longer and you ride faster, thus the total workout being at least the same. And this not even taking into account that with assistance you likely also ride more often.
Maybe I don't want to learn Raspberry Pi to start my little SaaS idea. To search and click in the AWS console to get some MVP up and running cannot be beaten that easily. Can I get a Raspberry Pi site with a few 100$/month, my efforts included?
I'm not inherently opposed to allowing for bankruptcy on student loans, but it will probably have a similar effect--banks won't want to lend to people with no credit or income and college will mostly only be affordable for the kids whose parents can pay for it. It's probably not much worse than the status quo, but my instinct is that we need to account for employability in the financing equation. A teenager shouldn't be able to take out $100K in debt to finance a Master's of Theater. If that's by allowing bankruptcy such that banks have skin in the game to avoid these kinds of debts, then that's probably fine with me (although banks had this same kind of skin in the game leading up to the subprime mortgage crisis and they still fucked over the whole country, so careful regulation is probably needed if we go this route).
Having played the game at a somewhat high level it definitely feels pay to win adjacent at minimum. There are websites out there where you can see estimates of an opponent's deck cost and it's disheartening losing to multi thousand $ decks.

I also had the same experience as a kid playing a tcg in tournaments and losing to adults who were buying 50 packs at a time.

My wife and I own one of the RadMission ebikes[1] each, and I now fully believe that they are the missing middle transportation that many cities, even in suburbs.

We've taken these bikes on, long trips on a trial, grocery runs, trips to the gym, and even on dates. These things are a ton of fun, and I can safely keep up with cars on many, not all, city streets.

I think ebikes can effectively replace cars for many trips, they cause minimal wear to city infrastructure, require much less space on roads, cause a lot less traffic, and generally improve the health and well being of people in a city.

I think we need an ebike revolution as much as we need an electric car revolution.

But technically, you have recourse if your professor distributes the paper.

In practice, this could easily fall under fair-use, though, since the paper isn't distributed for the purpose of consumption.
Even memcpy would be more that fast enough, though. This just seemed like a weird test to me since instead of testing "which [database] can convert a set of coordinates into H3 identifiers the fastest", it seems more like a test of which database can change its schema eagerly the fastest. Not saying that this is not a useful thing to have, but when you can already import data in the correct format, it seems like waste of effort for the thing allegedly being tested. (It's possible that I missed some detail, of course.)
That would be my only gripe as well - the old docs site was 10 times better.
Exactly. It's just a consequence of our observations. It can easily be replaced if we have a better observation.

Also, by definition, no-one is able to infer what would have happened "before" the Big Bang. Even time as we know it doesn't make sense then.
I mean, calling rustc isn't so bad other than managing dependencies. I don't think it's really all that much more fraught than the compilers of other complex languages (including C++) that people manage to interact with directly. But cargo is simultaneously so good at dealing with dependencies, and (for lack of a better word) parasitic in its integration with nearly every crate in existence, that the moment you want to pull something else in it gets Hard.

Where it gets real messy is if you want to go back and forth (C->rust->C or rust->C->rust where the bookends are in the same codebase). This was a thing we wanted to do at the job I just left, but we never managed to make it work in a way that wasn't very janky. This was in a very mature and large C codebase managed by cmake, where we were gradually eating parts of it with rust, though.

I, a single developer, have an automatic CI/CD pipeline running from Github to ECR/ECS that deploys multiple high-availability services to serverless Fargate tasks with no downtime, as well as numerous executables running on cron jobs that pull the latest container and each run their own command on a separate instance of a serverless task. These are all automatically torn down when they complete, and I'm billed for the seconds or minutes they take to execute. Total bill is about $50/month.

I set this all up with Terraform, and never touch the AWS UI. The code is 99.9% ignorant of the fact that it runs on AWS.

I used to self host, and then used Media Temple, and then used DigitalOcean. Maybe I'm ignorant of the latest offerings from those providers but creating, let alone maintaining, something like the above without a cloud provider like AWS or GCP would be a significant overhead.

The downsides the author points out are unpredictable costs (this is a risk, but manageable) and vendor lock in (this is low if you know how to code your services using abstract interfaces that hide the underlying vendors).
As someone who has never been to Ukraine or Russia, I genuinely don't know: what has Ukraine actually done to repress its Russian minority? I've read that 1) Russian is not an official language in Ukraine, 2) there have been some efforts made to promote the speaking and teaching of Ukrainian (though Russian remains widely spoken) and 3) a Ukrainian bill recognizing Ukraine's "indigenous peoples" did not cover Russians.

That strikes me as...almost nothing. What am I missing?
Probably not today but there's a future where this could be done without crypto (hence my comment re whether web3 is the right tech).

1. Fixed payment processing fees make it unfeasible. Minimum credit card fees are 10s of cents, so anything sub a dollar becomes unpractical.

2. Viability of micropayments is proportional to the fees charged by the payment processor. If the processor charges 1c, then 10c micropayments are feasible. If they charge 30c, it makes much more economic sense to charge larger amounts in bulk (as a business, a 40c microtransaction means I'm giving up 75% revenue to the payment processor). Sure, you could always charge in aggregate at the end of the month but the experience to me as a user is worse.

3. What information? If I'm reading an article on a news website, what more information do they need then my wallet address to identify me (if that)? If they require name, that can be linked my wallet address and I can decide whether I give access to that information (no different to SSO today or app store permissions).

Can it be done without crypto? Absolutely, but it requires a lot of change to make it feasible. It's one application that does seem ideally suited to crypto and web3.
How fair is that though? I would imagine that a majority of individuals in many countries around the world would like to like in the US, China, Japan, or Europe if they could. Is 73% markedly higher than we would see in India, Iran, Pakistan, or Nigeria?
I have been a bike commuter (half hour one way) off and on for the last 10 years, and e-bikes do not solve the real issues I have: safety, especially at night, or in rainy or icy weather, which I have a lot of (but, yes, on some of those hot days, an e-assist would be pretty nice to have).
Given the responses, I think they trained it from the subreddit.

As this seems to be a repeating class of posts, the reality generally boils down to the same thing every time:

- use requirements to find out what you need, not buzzwords

- comparing services with significantly different properties while ignoring those properties isn't helpful

- playing datacenter in a virtual environment isn't the same as cloud architecture

If you just need a virtual machine to do some stuff and loss of availability, reduced durability and lack of redundancy doesn't really matter, then you can get that pretty much anywhere. The same goes for DNS, object storage and SQL-based storage (ignoring database features). As soon as your needs for availability, durability and redundancy increase, your choices of service providers decrease because not every service provider provides the same servers at the same level. Integration of services is a whole different game as well and equally has fewer providers as the level of integration increases. Also: don't conflate integration with lock-in.
I have a personal dev cloud on AWS that has:

* AWS MSK (Kafka server) with redundant instances across 3 AZs

* Aurora Posgres instance with redundancy across 3 AZs

* Multiple Lambdas for incoming messages from MQTT to Kafka

* IoT/MQTT and about a dozen iot devices sending telemetry continuously (every second)

* 20+ services with nearly 40 tasks, running on ECS

* All the supporting route53, certificates, VPCs etc. for the above

* A bunch of miscellaneous stuff I've forgotten that's used by other developers.

* All deployed via TF

_THAT_ all costs well under a grand. You're doing it wrong.

It's the wrong way to think. The underlying assumption of this type of thinking is, the type of problem you are handed doesn't matter.

There are so many problems the best ppl or teams cannot solve.

There's a difference between "believer in the resurrection of Jesus Christ" and "believer that the Shroud of Turin was from the resurrection of Jesus Christ".

Love my e-bike! Haven't had any incentive to acquire such, while in the US (not that popular, either, for obvious reasons), but bought one upon arrival in France, where roads are either bicycle friendly or there are lots of dedicated / purposely built bike paths. I can't get enough of it - trips in and out of the city where I live, be it to various beaches, by the sea, or wineries in the hilly areas.
My experience is the exact opposite. Keep in mind I work for a Fortune 200 company and we recently spent $120 million expanding our data center capacity just five years ago - and it's now running out of power capacity (it has 1 MW power service). Also, our lead times for getting new servers is now months. Why? Because all the manufacturers are prioritizing deliveries for the cloud providers.

That's a general problem we have.

Now for a specific project I have, I took it from on-premise to AWS and am saving over 75% than what it was to host on-premise. The majority of the savings was due to software licensing costs. It's expensive to license software on-premise. The architecture of AWS and using their services makes it so those licenses aren't required. Moreover, we've been able to add features to our product offerings that we realistically would not have been able to add while keeping the hosting on-premise. All while saving 75% over what we were paying previously.

My experience has been AWS is faster, cheaper, and better. The business loves it and we're getting more projects. They can't believe how quickly we can deploy new solutions nor how cheap it is for on-going operational costs.

Bottom line - I wouldn't recommend hosting on-premise. AWS isn't the only cloud provider in town, but I would use them over doing anything on-premise.

it's all to appease the Google black box. UX always takes a back seat to SEO. Because if there are no users, then no one to irritate with bad UX in the first place.

That makes no sense, how can you get the private key from knowing 1 bit of the nonce?
Haven't dug too deep, but my understanding is that this doesn't bind event handlers just in time, but instead sets up event delegation from a tiny blocking bootstrapping script, to attach a top-level event handler that catches all events as soon as the first chunk of HTML streams in.

In addition, it sets up an intersection observer. Then depending on when an event happens, it might require downloading that one event handler piecemeal if the event occurred early enough during page load, or if the event is late enough, the action happens instantaneously because the intersection observer already downloaded the handler in anticipation that the user would interact with the element, it being visible and all.

The trade-off is that the download of every other JS thing effectively gets deferred due to fragmentation of how JS gets loaded in the page, but the cleverness of the trade-off is that in typical scenarios, most of that deferred code is not going to be activated by the user in the first place (or at least not in quick succession so as to overload network).

The real benefit of the cloud is their SaaS offerings. If you go cloud agnostic you create more on going maintenance overhead (since you now have to manage services), higher hosting costs and you still have to rewrite most of your IaC when switching clouds anyway. Contrary to common belief, IaC platforms like Terraform doesn't mean the same code works across different clouds. It just means the same language can be used to provision services. However how you define services in that language will differ from one cloud to another even if the types of services are the same.

So unless you're going multi-cloud from day one, it's much better to write your services to be specific to the cloud you're using and benefit from them rather than boycotting them because of a theoretical decision of multi-cloud that you might never actually make. Most companies that talk about going multi-cloud never actually do because the benefits of being multi-cloud are actually pretty small for most domains. Being multi-cloud is one of those things that sounds more important than it actually is.
