For what it’s worth, the linked article is not the official AWS documentation, and the official AWS documentation has never been paywalled as far as I know. The linked article is from “AWS re:Post” which is the equivalent of a support forum

This isn’t really the official AWS “documentation”. AWS docs are located at a completely different website and are free to access. The linked article is from “AWS re:Post” which is the equivalent of a “support forum” where you can ask quest

My guess is that it probably has more to do with the fact that Dimon probably has an entire floor all to himself with all kinds of customized artwork, couches, lounge chairs etc, with personal assistants, likely a private elevator, maybe ev

AWS isn’t and has never been economical for side projects or hobby tinkering, unless you specifically want to tinker with AWS. I’m a big AWS fan. I’d recommend any company of decent size to use AWS. But seriously, if your project is just

None of those things are going to result in a monetary return of investment though, which is the problem. These big companies are betting a huge amount of their capital on the prospect of being able to make significant profit off of these i

Thinking of the $500B as only an aspirational number is wrong. It’s true that the specific Stargate investment isn’t fully invested yet, but that’s hardly the only money being spent on AI development. The existing hyperscalers have already

Yes, it not being a version number is the entire point of this thread.

Rockets aren’t birds either, and yet: Falcon 9 (the Falcon 9 also is the second iteration of the Falcon rockets, not the ninth, so…) Rockets also aren’t planets, and yet: Saturn V Rockets also aren’t mythological horse/man creatures, a

If a security mechanism doesn’t account for failure cases, it’s a failure of the security mechanism. It’s a hard problem to solve and I don’t have a solution, but it’s a core goal of every security tool to account for edge cases and failure

> Suppose DankStartup folds … Isn't that a failure on DankStartup's part, to not shut down their business accounts? Expecting an entity that has already failed* to not fail again isn’t an effective security control, unfortunate

This is the narrow perspective I was referring to. There are border crossings in the world where there is no reliable electricity, and laptops/smartphones are a rare luxury. Starlink is not a solution to these problems.

Yea, lots of comments in here advocating for full digital or “just use passport cards” are coming from a narrow perspective of only having to use passports in established travel routes like major international airports or developed countrie

Chips have been present in passports, even the all-paper ones, since the 1990s, with all the same information. They’re called “Biometric Passports”. The plastic card in newer passports is for durability and making them more difficult to for

Just because the end result is the same doesn’t make it an accurate comparison or an insightful comment, especially given your comment was about motivations, not results.

That’s not an apt comparison. X wanted to keep operating in Brazil without following the law, so Brazil suspended them. The parent commenter is talking about Cloudflare stopping operations in Italy of their own accord.

The most common way for an AWS account to be hacked, by far , is mishandling of AWS IAM user credentials. AWS has even gone so far as to provide multiple warnings in the AWS console that you should never create long-lived IAM user credenti

I think the reality is that a lot of people don’t use or care for the main Pi features like the GPIO pins or camera connectors, and aren’t using them in places where space or power is constrained. They’re purely looking for a cheap amount o

Google didn’t “give back” any of those things to humanity. Those are all products that Google is selling to you in exchange for your privacy so that they can make a profit. Don’t mistake Google for some benevolent entity that deserves speci

The regulators in question are pushing for divestiture of Chrome because they don’t believe that the current structure prevents using Chrome data, so it seems that Google did “make a mistake like that”.

Selling devices with a browser installed or available for installation is completely tangential to creating and/or controlling the development of said browser.

The parent commenter never used or even implied “stealing” nor “innovation” anywhere in their comment. I dunno where you got your strawman from.

Proxmox doesn’t preclude you from having k8s. You can create VM(s) in Proxmox and then install k8s on them, then run your app workloads in k8s. You do have to treat Proxmox VMs like “pets, not cattle” since they are more difficult to automa
