organic_popcornon Study: Effectiveness of Apple's app tracking transparency

I thought Facebook was having people leave their platforms over the last year.

organic_popcornon Goddamn AWS seems to be down again 4th time this month alone

I have been wondering if Charlie Bell leaving AWS has anything to do with these recent outages. His ops meetings were fucking brutal. I’m curious how they are since he left.

organic_popcornon AWS down again?

> The experience hasn't been great. It may simply be sour 'grapes' because, after all the expertise a whole generation has built up learning UNIX, and all the internet protocols (DNS, ARP, Email, reading RFCs, networking, routing) we get told that all that old stuff is just 'legacy,' and that we should retool around amazon's proprietary services instead.

organic_popcornon FDA Approves First Covid-19 Vaccine

I think this is for the most part what the person above you is suggesting. B2E and B2C relationships being severed over not getting vaccinated.

In addition like previous precedents, public schools would not allow the unvaccinated in the future. These things all combined would mean individuals would be having to change their lifestyle since they’re choosing not to participate in a way that’s safe for others.
