No love for AWS, but this isn't true, at least for larger deploys. If you're running enough with them that you have an account manager, they are very good indeed. You can have someone, someone good, on the phone within minutes and

Yeah, Malaysian is not a bad airline. Both of those losses were really bad luck that could have, and have, happened to any airline. Not just saying that, I've flown with them twice over the last year and another booked in a few months.

What I don't understand is why there isn't some kind of paid escalation option. I fully understand why they don't provide free human support for a billion unpaid users, but couldn't there be a $50 "OK, we will actua

Their product looks great but the price seems insane. $125/m per connection? That's very hard to swallow for a SAAS looking to charge maybe $10-30 per seat. I get it, "enterprise!", but that's a pretty high barrier

Don't think it's solely about the money. Reputation, history, everything else is in the mix. Of course Twitter would have an excellent argument that porn is only a tiny subset of its content and it has much larger, legitimate uses

There's no clearly defined line. This is by intent. The idea is to send a message - you can be a bit risque, but don't cause us problems or we'll suddenly decide whatever your percentage is is too much. So many rules, especia

Mind sharing what the client side languages were? Admittedly what I was using at the time was ruby, hardly a priority for the google team I imagine.

Awesome repos, starred. Do you have any preferences for next steps, such as deploy/management? And if you’ve seen it, what do you you think of https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk ?

Ha, fair response. But the truth is I haven't much cared, you're right. Twitter is a private company, they agreed to sell and Musk bought it, if he wants to screw up his asset and his reputation by doing ridiculous things, that&#x

This might be the last straw. I flat out refuse to use their horrible app with its nonsense algorithmic timeline. Give it a few hours to see if it's permanent but if it is, I expect a huge wave of new mastodon users..

Well, your first example is a good "what not to do". Doesn't sound like much of a "grey area" if they're living in fear of being found out. I don't understand this kind of setup - financial information is
