This is how you rule from a position of deep unpopularity


I like using Vespucci to edit OSM, easy and fun


How is the most dystopian nanny state news always coming out from Australia first, and then the rest of the world rushes to copy them?


The government knows it’s unpopular, to the point where they feel the need to shove their policy through by force and crush dissent


Depends on the country, of course there were politicians that disagreed on principle, but the voting on the issue wasn’t done by MEPs , if it’s MEPs you messaged


The rejection of the bill wasn’t on principle, but technicalities, if you look at most countries that opposed, the bill will be back with edits, Denmark is already aiming for December

I think most companies don’t have a three nines SLA with their customers, yet were sold the idea that cloud (… and then serverless) should be the right decision for them.

Don’t get me wrong, I agree with what you’re saying, my point is more towards the tribal consensus that was built in the tech community around 2016-2018 that the cloud is the future, for everyone, and that managing your own infrastructure is being a brute


I was going to reference this Medium article on how paying extra for “uptime” and reliability isn’t just a 50-100% premium, but many times a 7-8 figure premium. These figures are make or break a business model type figures.
The irony is that Medium, a site hosting mostly static content, is still down due to the AWS outage.


pay a premium for the same amount of CPU & RAM you could’ve gotten from your classic VPS provider fire your sysadmins and hire DevOps Engineers at 2x the salary raise a ticket with AWS and wait every time you need more than 5 instances of the same compute type oops, our biggest DC got knocked offline, here’s some compute time credits
the cloud has been the biggest scam in tech history
Brother, you have the full internet at your fingertips, I gave you an example with plenty of keywords you can search yourself.
