I own a Model 3 long range, and have put about 2500 miles on it so far. I've always gotten pretty close to the estimated range. Even on extreme hills like Shoreline Highway heading to Agate state park beach, I didn't notice anyt

What's the Grapevine? You're basically claiming your Tesla got half the rated mileage with no proof. I'm sure thousands of Tesla owners would dispute the accuracy of this claim.

Pretty much every EV uses the same port for level 1 and 2. Tesla has a DC fast charging port that comes with an adapter to fit the standard level 1 and 2. I don't see the problem. I own both a BMW i3 and a Tesla Model 3, and I can ch

I don't think you're being truthful here. EVs actually do better in stop and go traffic than driving flat out at 75 mph, because of the lack of wind resistance and the ability to do regenerative braking. The Model X 75D has 237 m

It also forces the poor domain owner who is being fronted, in this case SOUQ.COM, to absorb a huge Route 53 bill for all of the DNS queries that are originating from Signal users. Not fair at all.

Despite the use case for censorship circumvention, many malware command and control bots use domain fronting to bypass corporate web filters that otherwise might block their traffic. CloudFlare, being a security-focused CDN, most definitely

Yes, but I don't think you're considering the significant direct cost to the owner of SOUQ.COM for DNS queries. If all of a sudden I get millions of extra DNS queries for my domain because Signal is using it to front their traffi

A couple important things to note: - This most definitely is against the CloudFront terms of service. See the linked article if you disagree - the ToS is quoted there. - One direct impact to the owners of the SOUQ.COM domain is that their D

No, because what do you think those white people fleeing to the suburbs in the 80s and 90s did? They didn't sell homes to minority homeowners because the banks wouldn't give minorities loans. They either sold to other white land

I agree with most of what you said, however, Netflix most definitely does not operate at a scale well beyond what most AWS managed services can address. AWS managed services literally sit behind billions of devices, a scale that makes Netfl

Does that make it right for Facebook to gather this data? It seems entirely unnecessary.

It could just be using iMessage. When you send photo and video attachments using iMessage, they get stored on iCloud for some period of time so that other users can view or download them.

Yes, acloud.guru is a great resource. You can take courses there for a very low price. Highly recommended.

I do consider myself a specialist in cloud computing (of which storage is just a component). I think it's important to become really deep in one or two areas, even if you are a generalist. For example, cloud computing has too many se

Same idea for Sagemaker. Nice to see I get a bunch of instant downvotes - I sometimes wonder why even bother participating in this community.

This seems to be a reaction by Google to the Amazon SageMaker release in November: https://aws.amazon.com/sagemaker/ It's great to see that other cloud providers are acknowledging the talent and training data gaps

I hate to tell you this, but when a judge issues a warrant, denying (even through this method) is clearly obstruction of justice. That's right, if you work for Uber, and you help them do this, you can, and will go to jail - are you wi
