   Correct me if I'm wrong, but you would still need to pay $3 USD/mo for Fastmail even if you use 1P. Whereas with Relay, it's 0.99 USD/mo, and no need to migrate my existing email to any other service.

   The problem is, I don't have access to the email used to create this account. I created this account long time back, when hotmail was a thing. I haven't logged into that email account since 2004. I tried getting access to it, but

   I'm also working on a Java + Dropwizard project. MongoDB is the option I went with as a DB, and SendGrid for transactional emails. Did you evaluate Digital Ocean as an option?

   I understand it. I've worked in AWS, and now in OCI, dealing with systems that affect hundreds-to-thousands of customers, which businesses are at stake. Mitigation is your top-priority. Bringing the system back to a good shape. If ther

   Thank you for taking the time to respond to my questions. I believe the high potential of causing a follow-up incident was left out of the post (or maybe I missed it?). I hope that lessons are learned from this operational event, and invest

    As a mexican living in the US couldn't agree more. Need an ultra sound? Wait for 3-4 weeks. Want an MRI? Wait for 2-3 months. Why can't I get immediate care when I need it without having to step on the emergency room and pay (prob

    I've thought about this problem, specially in LATAM countries were gov agencies are still ages behind in terms of security/compliance and sharing these type of documents. There is definitely a need for this.

    1. It depends on the company (Amazon vs AWS) and it varies from org to org, and team to team. Just like in every place there's going to be great and crapy people. In 3 years at Amazon I had the opportunity to work next to great people,

    I definitely agree with this, however, most people moved away from verbal communication because it's an async process, and it removes any awkwardness from the interaction. Video conferencing is used occasionally. I think text-based com
