I can't speak for amazon back in '10 as we've only recently adopted the system, but I assure you this isn't the case nowadays. Launching an instance takes < 30 seconds and is a matter of a few clicks, the author of this post chose to us

I don't see it stated anywhere that they kept the money. Based upon the fact that a paypal dispute was behind the entire situation, it is very likely the customer simply filed a paypal dispute because he didn't agree with something that hap

As the Co-founder of a statup that has dealt directly with situations like this in the past, I don't see much wrong with how the situation was handled. You wouldn't expect a restaurant owner to put up with a rude and insulting customer bein

I have to say, the most impressive part about this is the fact that my macbook doesn't even rev up like a jet engine like it would if I was..say...watching a flash video. Awesome.

Most people tend to discredit diet therapy because it's "not mainstream" or against the norm. Of course you don't see nearly as many "studies" on diet therapy as you do a typical medicine or pill, most scientists and doctors that practice a

What about the issue of car thieves in general? From the sound of it, you are required to keep your keys inside the vehicle. The founders basically said "the keys will be in the ignition". Is there no locking component of any sort inclu
