I disagree. Amazon seems to actually care about privacy and takes things like this pretty seriously. One could certainly criticize AMZN data collection, but I think Amazon has shown that it does care about privacy of this data. Mistakes do

I don't think anyone is arguing that you can. But most companies who want a ledger don't need a blockchain to accomplish it. In your case, you're talking about no trusted actors in a very decentralized system. We're talk

AWS-Exclusive from my understanding. Not in AWS but from reading other comments, it sounds like this has been widely used internally for some time.

Amazon could leak your secrets stored in Secrets Manager, or KMS. ACM could leak your private keys. EC2 hypervisor could have a 0day that allows China to steal all your data. CloudTrail could drop audit logs. At some point, you have to trus

This is exactly what re:Invent is. Most teams dream of launching a new AWS product at re:Invent (and not missing their date and launching at a later time)

Oh man, I forgot about TOTSE. I must have been in 6th grade when I used to browse that forum. Loved that one and rotteneggs.com

Prime now is great for stuff like this, although has to be available in your area. But yeah I agree, I'd never order an SD card off of Amazon.

This was going to be my point. AWS delivers a minimum viable product and heavily iterates on it. Usually features are prioritized over "upgrade the piece of shit angular app we use for the console." I might run through the console

Beer. Im part of a bunch of private beer raffle groups. It goes like this 1. Someone buys a rare and sought after beer (say, at a release they waited hours in line for) 2. They come up with a valuation 3. They post the beer for N spots in

Facebook is still big, but it is losing it's throne as king. Facebook is only used by older folks at this point.

Fun fact, you're ~25 times more likely to die on a motorcycle mile for mile than a car. Stay safe out there.

Comparing vlc to a home theater setup is laughable at best. Can vlc scrape Metadata and download art? Can I browse my catalog through vlc? Does it work with my remote? How hard is it to get to the next episode when watching a season? Vlc is

The dream is definitely not trusting certs which haven't been written to a log. I think that the path is actually in sight too. The CAB forum seems relatively on board.

I think tech workers at Amazon are closer to the Sears workers than fulfillment center folks are. My friends working at Amazon as tech workers are making money hand over fist right now. 100+ stocks each grant. On the flipside, Amazon has a

Long long term resident with a connection to local government They don't have a choice. Seattle IT is so underfunded that hands are tied because there isn't any resourcing. On one hand, you have to respond to all of these requests

This is a really bad example, specifically wrt Paul Allen. Many of those arguing against him dislike the idea of having two classes of folks, the elite that can own weapons, and plain folks. Japan is the definition of this system...

Good. It sickens me that there is so much wealth in both the Bay Area and Seattle, yet both cities are going through a homelessness crisis. I recognize I'm part of the problem and I'm working to help the problem, but I'm only
