We benchmarked Google Cloud's $512 VM – the speed wasn't the interesting part

  Thought this would be a speed story. Ended up being a predictability story. Three fresh deployments looked almost boring. Which is probably exactly what you want from a $512/month VM.

  AI slop article. It wasn't just X. It was Y. Also, $500/mo for 64GiB of RAM and 16 mystery meat CPUs. LOL! You guys are all being ripped off and you don't even know it.

      When first allocating that vm I was utterly shocked.

    Not people! Just enterprises that want scalability.
