I work for Vantage and I do think that startups are starting to care about cloud costs, but not necessarily for the cost itself. The thing to understand early these days is COGS and whether the business can scale its service with good margi

I can tell you that NASA is in the midst of a multi-year effort to move their computing to AWS and that yes.. downloading 324 terabytes of data is very expensive but very soon all this data will just remain in the cloud and be accessed virt

Great stuff! I know the ClickHouse team and they are world class. If you're more familiar with a relational database some things will feel weird. For example, you should not insert 1 row at a time, there's over 1,000 built-in func

Multiple AWS accounts is definitely a best practice in larger engineering orgs. We implemented a CloudFormation StackSet to ingest them into our billing tool and lay them out appropriately. This proved to be a very slick solution from AWS s

Yep they are extremely aggressive. The technology is also extremely hard though.

I believe this is the use case Cloudflare is really targeting with R2. They recently connected Cache Reserve to R2 to make this even easier. We wrote up a breakdown for S3 vs R2 and found that R2 would be significantly cheaper when the majo

Yeah absolutely. Another huge thing I got some window into at Qualcomm is technical validation. So Apple is going to be looking for proof that the chips deliver and TSMC is going to be pushing back against high expectations on that front.

Incorporating tags is really nice. I appreciate infra companies that help teams stay organized with their resources.

Echoing this. The SRE book is also highly revealing about how Google request prioritization works. https://sre.google/sre-book/load-balancing-datacenter/ My personal opinion is that Google's resources are mor

This finding could shed more light on the timing of the so-called 'bronze age collapse' which Jared Diamond and Eric Cline (author of 1177 BC) have popularized. Cline's conclusion is that the collapse began around 1230 and co

I have found this to be even more true in non-technical fields. 2 blog posts a week vs 1 blog post a week is the difference of tens of thousands of hits on Google in a year.

You could join a startup. It won't solve the always-on problem but it will certainly solve the bits with legacy code and not creating new things. You can also look for a place that is in-person which could give you some highs of workin

I participated in another Daniel Gross program, Pioneer, and it was _excellent_. I highly recommend it or this for folks that may be more 'outside the band' when it comes to raising money or getting a startup from 0 to 1. I would

Cool to see Vantage mentioned here! I work for them, mainly on the ec2instances.info site. https://docs.vantage.sh/autopilot/ has many details on how our RI management program works. We recently added Autopilot Control

Good observation. I wonder if this is a reason the TV adaptations have been tough. Plot seems best enjoyed in written form whereas world building shines on screen.

I have personally enjoyed the Yale Online courses tremendously: https://oyc.yale.edu/ My favorites are RLST 152 (Intro to the New Testament), ITAL 310 (Dante in Translation) and HIST 210 (The Early Middle Ages).

The R2 vs S3 story is pretty interesting. For archival use cases, S3 still wins by a mile, but for running apps, R2 often wins (minus lacking features). I wrote up my findings here: https://www.vantage.sh/blog/cloudflar
