Wholeheartedly agree. I really thought they'd have gotten there before the charge date hit. Pity; I expected better of them.

This is ridiculous. I love it.

It was my first feedback for you. I’m still incensed.

You might note who the customer quote is from.

"Splunk that runs locally with a worse UX, but on balance doesn't eat all the resources you throw at it and doesn't charge you a kidney."

So they spun up two Managed NAT Gateways?

Man, what a ChatGPT coded article start to finish.

Oh dear. Lightsail instances are burstable t family instances. Of course performance is going to be variable; they're generally oversubscribed and subject to noisy neighbor workloads. It's not directly correlated with region.

Was this the day that gp3 EBS volumes came out by any chance?

I like how you don’t disclose it uses affiliate links. Real ethical of you.

I was really hoping this wouldn’t be AI slop. Alas…

If that's the case, I'm fairly confident that AWS will forgive the bill (I... have some experience with this), and the kid learns not to be a jackhole on the internet.

They acquired this last year. It’s been shipping since before then.

Vercel seems to be pulling it off. So does PlanetScale, albeit for databases only. But everything’s a database.

No kidding; t3 instances definitionally have variable performance.

You could probably see more if they used their own product.

If you really want to know where the data centers are, the local Uber drivers and pizza delivery folks are a great source.

Ignoring the AI slop, no surprise; t3 performance is definitionally inconsistent.

This 404s and I'm annoyed because this is very much in my wheelhouse of interest.

Looks like the site 404s?

You'd be surprised by how many industries are vulnerable to military strikes.

And how many regions is Cost Explorer in?

I always enjoy the color you add to these conversations. Thanks!

I like this!

That’ll cover a NAT Gateway.

Man, your behavior when you realize you got something wrong is something the rest of us can aspire to. This is one of the things I like the best about you.

I would love this. How can I help?

I can’t recall encountering a system in the last 15 years that didn’t have vim (or at least vi for esoteric things) on it.

Here’s my rundown:

AWS because I know how it breaks, Google Cloud if you’re starting from scratch due to great DX, Oracle Cloud if you trust them to not go all Oracle with it someday since it’s solid tech, Azure if you spent Thanksgiving dinner eating crayons at the kids’ table, IBM “Cloud” if you hate your company and yourself.

As much fun as dunking on Amazon for these things is, refunds via the credit card networks are always along this timeframe.
