AWS promotional credits are non-transferrable. The only way for the OP to "donate" those credits is to create an AWS Organisation and allow the non-profit create a sub-account to use the $10k credits. But the OP has to be vigilant

Nice that you recommended HTTrack. That's a name I haven't heard in a long while: a blast from the past :).

That's interesting. Do you have a public source for this handy? I remember seeing an article [1] proclaiming that more than 50% of Azure's workloads are on Linux, so I'm guessing their hypervisors are running an optimised Li

I wouldn’t call it propaganda. Facebook’s reputation in this regard hasn’t exactly been stellar because they’ve been caught red-handed spying on users at scale [1] [2]. And Apple was swift to limit the damage of their spying by banning [1]

Yikes. Inspite of leadership changes by hiring from Oracle, it’s clear GCP will be stuck in 3rd place for a while. You can’t treat long standing customers (even with a modest spend) like dirt and hope to somehow edge out Azure or AWS. Submi
