I lived in Jacksonville for most of my life, and near the end of my tenure I started noticing the Kroger trucks. They were coming all the way from Orlando? That's like a two hour drive for cold groceries, feels expensive. (i do recall

They used to (a year or two ago?) host them for free so you didn’t need a sub, is that no longer true? (Sucks about the pbs part though, didn’t realize they’d stopped that.)

My high school is still at www-bths.stjohns.k12.fl.us, and if it wasn’t embedded in my fingertips from working IT there I’d have no idea how anyone is supposed to remember it.

Did you try cleaning the lightning port out with a toothpick or something? Mine was full of lint and now it works like new.

It’s definitely fine for a while, it’s the closest thing they have to an internal chatbot product and they need that to sell enterprises on adopting AWS.

I think these days yt-dlp is possible because they're relying on the infra YouTube has for their TV apps, which are html5 (ish) browser apps. so they'd also have to dedicate time to building native apps for every TV in existence,

That's interesting. Except for $GIGANTIC_CO (like, BofA, or the government), i'd expect a SLA that describes service resiliency and not "well, our service will be up because we're on AWS". Why would you need to disc

Last week's Microsoft deal said Azure was still exclusive: https://openai.com/index/next-chapter-of-microsoft-openai-pa... But that feels weird combined with this. You can buy OpenAI API access which is served off

They used to do that (so that everyone picking 1a wouldn’t actually route traffic to the same az), but at some point they made it so all new accounts had the same AZ labels to stop confusing people. The services that fail on AWS’ side are u

They also say "Non-API products may be served on any cloud provider.". I wonder what products they are thinking about. If I sell you a EC2 image with GPT-5 on it, is that a API? My assumption is that they mean PaaS model hosting (

If their internal NLB monitoring can delete the A record for dynamodb that seems like a weird dependency (like, i can imagine the nlb going missing entirely can cause it to clean up via some weird orchestration, but this didn't sound l

weirdly, i've done the repair on one of the previous X1 generations. It was a pain to disassemble most of the machine (~2 hours?) but it was at least doable. i don't think you can do it on a Mac at all?

The support apis only exist in us-east-1, iirc. It’s a “global” service like IAM, but that usually means modifications to things have to go through us-east-1 even if they let you pull the data out elsewhere.

I would kill for this as a AWS service, but I admit all my use cases are around being too frugal to pay for the time it takes to initialize a EC2 instance from zero (like CI workers where I don’t want to pay when idle but also the task coul

Do they? If all this is in their DC then it’s going over their wires, unless their colo provider somehow had visibility into their traffic (which I’d guess they don’t).

You can turn off effects to restore amazing performance (I know on the Mac version it’s the “optimize for retina displays” option).
