no. the author mentions "64-of-96" things in the post as well. I don't think kmod means to do what you said.

AMD responds here https://www.amd.com/en/corporate/product-security > We are aware of a new white paper that claims potential security exploits in AMD CPUs, whereby a malicious actor could manipulate a cache-re

i can't remember the last time AWS raise the price of their services. in fact, i can only recall when they reduce price.

Discourse (forum) used to hijack Ctrl+F (Command+F) shortcut which makes it super irritating! Not sure if they have changed that.

very inspring story. thanks for sharing. i experience many things similar with yours. - progress plateau is scary. whenever i experience this, I try very hard to get out of it. > I needed practice too. The data team wanted to launch an i

surprised to see vala is first class now. it's right there in the code binding snippet example.

dont use this site. they do all kind of shady things to make Intel CPUs look better https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/chco8h/userbenchm...

i wonder why doesn't AMD sponsor these kind of projects to get maintainers to support their CPU. it helps both parties.

well authhor did list high cost as disadvantage.

i think it's ok. as long as you don't abuse it too much.

if workload is constant, nothing beats baremetal in term of cost.

our clients (airlines) would very much prefer we use AWS over the smaller, lesser known offering.

Thanks. this would be useful to spin up a k3s cluster for testing.

> save your costs instead of migration to bare metal, like i mentioned in other comments. due to our use cases, bare metal is out of question since the clients (airlines) would very much prefer we use AWS over the smaller, lesser known o

i'm not familiar with that part. also sale people can make all kind of promises to close the deal.

It's more complicated than that. Sometimes, the decision is not just in the engineers' hands. eg - our clients (airlines) would very much prefer we use AWS over the smaller, lesser known offering.

there was several reasons for our case. There might be more for other startups. Here are some: - our clients (airlines) would very much prefer we use AWS over the smaller, lesser known offering. - AWS offer free promotional credits for star

i believe he was talking how it cost more in engineering cost versus the saving we can get from infrastructure by migrating. eg: if the infra cost down by 10,000 USD per month, they may say it's not worth it because they are paying mor

i believe what he meant is by being shutdown more frequent, we will be forced to build a more resilent system. otherwise, we would be more complacent.

that's for you to decide how many percent of reserved instances out of total compute power you need. it's always a trade off. in that case, pct of cost saving is lower but availability is higher.

it's certified yes. but for me, community is a crucial point and i think it's not big enough yet. maybe that's just me.

i hear all these engineering hours cost but only because engineering cost in US is so high. we're in Southeast Asia where senior engineer only cost $1000 a month back then in 2016.

Hi, The whole idea was from spotinst blog. Thanks a lot! I just glue all the opensource projects together with some changes here and there. If the idea didn't work, I will def consider using Spotinst. However, every cost saving is impo

by tuananh 7y ago
true that. spot used to be that way and the price was very sensitive. but AWS tweaked it so that it's more stable. to the point, after a year or 2 of running spot instances, we don't feel the difference of spot and ondemand that m

this is why ability to fall back to on-demand instances is critical.

if i were you, i would watch k3s closely. it's super promising; i may not want to dpeloy anything production critical there.

You're right. spot instances are a lot more stable than preemptible. we've seen spot instances that last a year for us.
