Re:Today is when the Amazon brain drain sent AWS down the spout

I didn't say they fixed everything within those 14 updates. I'm pointing out it's disingenuous to say they didn't start working on the issue until start of business when there are 14 updates of what they have found and done during that time.

Sure, that timeline looks bad when you leave out the 14 updates between 12:11am PDT and 8:04am PDT.
The initial cause appears to be a a bad DNS entry that they rolled back at 2:22am PDT. They started seeing recovery with services but as reports of EC2 failures kept rolling in they found a network issue with a load balancer that was causing the issue at 8:43am.
Verizon thinks $0.002 is 0.002 cents [video]
Re:Verizon thinks $0.002 is 0.002 cents [video]

George Vaccaro was a Verizon customer who, in early December 2006, had a customer service phone call where Verizon had a legendary "math fail" as it would have been dubbed at that time. This is a viral tale from the early/modern internet age of the oughts. In the calls, the Verizon employees repeatedly fail to acknowledge the distinction between 0.002 dollars and 0.002 cents because they think "0.002 cents" is $0.002; in other words they think $0.002 is 0.002 cents simply because the 002 comes after the decimal point.

"The parable of the earring was not about the dangers of using technology that wasn't Truly Part Of You, which would indeed have been the kind of dystopianism I dislike. It was about the dangers of becoming too powerful yourself."

Re:How good are American roads?
on Wednesday November 20, 2024 @12:27PM (#42196214)
You have a good point. I live in Michigan and recently traveled down to Austin, Texas. The roads didn't seem all that much better but all of the road markings really stuck out to me. Reflectors in all the lines separating lanes, soft bollards surrounding cross walks and parking areas, extra curbs built in for bike lanes.
It makes things look a lot nicer but my first thought was, "could you imagine trying to plow around those bollards, or those reflectors would get ripped up on the first pass."
