- tenaciousDaniel 5y agolol exactly. I've discussed this incident before on HN and had the same kind of "well tough luck but you deserved it" responses. They seem not to understand how off-putting it is to newcomers or students, to basically say "hey well YOU made a mistake, the trillion-dollar corporation SHOULD take your money, idiot!"

I've worked with AWS pros who get lost in the billing. In my last job, we had a big "hackathon" where the objective was to reduce our AWS spend. Overall, we reduced our annual bill by a couple million dollars.
