At the low end it’s worth considering Fargate distinct from EKS. You don’t need to provision a whole cluster (generally 3 machines minimum) and can just run as little as a single Pod.

My joke is that the unrealistic thing about Star Trek is not the faster than light travel or the matter transmitters it’s that their videoconferencing always works.

Before we sold, we had WeWork offices in Denver and NY and used a similar competitor in Austin. They worked great and we were happy with them. But they were also a commodity and we chose based on price and lack of lock-in.

I'm fascinated by how this ended up with the same name as the fictional stealthy propulsion technology from the Hunt For Red October. They're both called "magneto hydrodynamic" propulsion. The book was published in 1984.

Give me a break. The same three letter agency that convinced Intel to do this will convince Apple to do the same. I'm guessing you're basing your faith in Apple based on their refusal to cooperate in the San Bernadino case[1] and

The system works best over the long term if IPO shares are a little bit underpriced. Bankers have no trouble moving them and earning their fees, buyers are happy to take them because they get some pop and the company feels like they capture

$1300 is really an unusually high strike price. While in theory there is no difference between 200 options at $1300 per share and 20k options at $13 per share, the former is very unusual and I'd at least want to know the story. If the

I don't think this is quite an accurate analogy. A shredder removes the ability of anyone (including the owner) to read what was on the documents before shredding. A locked phone retains the ability for the owner to unlock it so it&#x2
