To the surprise of nobody, it's mostly Mongodb and Elasticsearch. Those wildly popular services with dangerous defaults.

If I had to pay $10/month for good search results, I absolutely would. I think most people would. Get rid of the ads and spam, and you have a service worth a premium. The solution is to make it user-centric instead of advertiser(spamme

The fact that they're wrapped up in crypto tells you all you need to know. Use Firefox + uBlockOrigin.

Does that actually do anything? I was always under the impression the DNT header was just screaming into the void.

Reddit was always a feudal system, from the moment they introduced subreddits. Simply being the first to land-grab a name makes you the king. Your chosen loyalists become moderators, and the serfs farm content for you.

It's possible people are reporting the issue as CloudFlare because that's whose error page they see when a box on EC2 is unreachable.

Yep, it's broken again. I was trying to install some Thunderbird extensions, and stuff started breaking halfway through. Never thought of an AWS outage borking my mail client I guess...

I think what GP is mostly referring to is that since the shuttle retired, we have no way to return payloads to the ground without "lithobraking". Starship may potentially have enough return capacity to place the Hubble telescope i

Works for a lot of things, but not Route53... Which is great because that's the only thing I need to do in AWS today :)

Any pricing info? I imagine they 'save' quite a bit by not having to take one of their IPv4 addresses out of the pool...

I've had surprisingly good luck with strong-arming people into switching. The important part is having their trust, if they don't believe you they won't listen. The next part is to make simple, verifiable, and non-technical a

It's fair because London is a horrible city. (Rant alert) It's not just bike and transit unfriendly, it's bad for cars too. There's no easy way to get from one side to the other in less than an hour during the day, short

Yep, I absolutely feel that. I have a very nice and boring '06 Toyota in great shape, except for a big rust spot on top of the windshield, I give it only a winter or two before it starts leaking. At that point it's not worth fixin
