I'm only saying what was quoted to me. The cards are easy to get, it is the switches that are more difficult.

- teaearlgraycold 2y agoSounds reasonable. We’re in a very different situation. We bought a bunch of used hardware but our servers are for training models. All of our production stuff runs in AWS. We definitely don’t want downtime but a day where researchers have issues is very different than a day where your app is down and your reputation is tarnished.
