I primarily wanted to note that I used 2^X notation in the math, in case it was confusing for folks. I used KB/MB/GB to be consistent with the language AWS uses on their S3 pricing page ( https://aws.amazon.com/s3&#

If you write a AWS-native service that uses S3 as a back end (a very reasonable thing to do), it may create many small files in S3. It would be unreasonable to incur the costs to retrieve them and tar them up, and it also does not make cen

How will you avoid being sued by artist's representation (i.e. record labels, RIAA, etc)? I would also be highly concerned about validating the recipient of the money, especially since they're unlikely to reach out directly. The b

I've been working on a Git migration inside a fortune 50 primarily windows shop for about 6 months. This line caught my eye: "Some of its benefits fit well with the trends we see in software development: loosely coupled systems, distribute

For the first time I've recently been seriously considering going paperless at home. However, every great solution involves uploading my scans to online services. This is something I'm not comfortable doing with my sensitive data (i.e. tax

Popularity begets popularity. I evaluated a ClearCase replacement in early 2012 for a large company, and Git is clearly the "nobody ever got fired for buying IBM" SCM. I looked at hg. It is easier, especially for the windows users. However,
