Just switched to AWS from DO after 5 years. DO was working great, but needed a more managed solution (am very familiar with the sysadmin, but just wanted to reduce workload) so went with AWS Fargate and happy with it so far.

I cycled from NY to SF 2015, with a detour to Chicago. I've done lots of bike touring in other parts of the world, but would say US is one of my top countries for bike touring!

Oh, their DDoS protection was one of the reasons we were thinking about moving away from DO. It is a public facing SaaS API which does not have much traffic in terms of requests, but would be catastrophic to be blackholed. So its that bad?

I tend to get jealous when I see people working with their hands, prefferably outside. Sometimes I even observe the guys cleaning the street and thinks, maybe its not that bad after all? The times I have done such work (like construction) r

Thanks, helps a lot. It is an unsolicited, however we pass all requirements. Is it generally okay asking the company if there is any vendor behind the RFQ (will they really reveal this?)

Fantastic. I also believe we are slaves to the cars, in such a way that we have become blind to the fact how they destroy our societies and people. Most people are so used to the cars that they find it hard we would be happier without them,
