What is vital and necessary? Is toilet paper vital and necessary? One person may say no and other may say yes! What about cheese? What about mop? There are literally millions of items, each of which would need to be cleared with a lawyer no

I had QC15 for over 7 years and QC35m2 now over 3. Both used and abused because I don’t really care about the case. Never broke anything in them. Eventually lost the QC15 and upgraded to QC35 - a decision I never regretted even though I fl

Hope you feel better, but you definitely don’t have covid19! A. Covid takes at least a week or two before being symptomatic. 2 hrs is way too fast. B. 2L of Tonic water has just 150mg (max) of Quinine. That’s not a therapeutic dose in any s

I did. Saying “everyone” when it’s just probably one person is not usually ok. It’s fine to say if you interpreted the comment in a certain way, and ok to be the outlier. But assuming your interpretation applies to others more broadly than

How do you know? Have you seen the future? As much as I am for interoperability, a legislation directing a specific technology is one way how we end up with ridiculous standards. Remember, we still have laws on where we can or cannot tie a

Sigh It’s sad that there are people who think calling garbage code garbage is inappropriate. What goes in their mind? Don’t they smell or call a smell a smell?

40K is just a soft limit. You can contact support to increase the limit to any number you like. In OnDemand mode tables have practically no limits on throughput or storage (just like provisioned mode). Disclaimer: I work for DynamoDB but co
