Take another look at the comment thread. It seems to me there is some sort of miscommunication or misunderstanding.
- asveikau 3y agoOh. I missed the word inconsequential. I don't think it's inconsequential at all once you have a substantial user base, especially since increasingly people tend to use resource hog frameworks and overpay for AWS and other cloud services.
- maerF0x0 3y agoin this case i use inconsequential to mean it's relatively small. It doesnt matter if you save $1M on $1B expenses. Even though, yeah, holy crap that's a million dollars! And generally it's a waste of limited resources to chase saving $1M in server costs when you can cut 1K head count and save $100M.
