Sorry guys that was actually me I used too many slurp juices on a single ape

Extremely critical support to AWS replacing their coders with chatbots.
the capitalists will braid the rope they will use to hang themselves
Are those still a thing?
In the same way that Beanie Babies were still a thing after the market for them dried up as well, yes
Though one of those things is much more tangible than the other
my transactions… fungible…
who would have guessed that buying an extremely expensive hyperlink would mean that hyperlink could point to something else or cease to function entirely outside your control?
literally everyone who actually looked into what an nft is and how it worked
About the AWS thing. Am i the only one who thinks it was a cyber attack? The US had done a cyber attack on China awhile before, and this would be a perfect way for China to say, “Fuck off.” And it comes at a time where the Dutch are seizing a Chinese company, and the US is putting its tariffs back on. Among other things. I will be watching to see if theres another one in the coming months. We might be in a tit for tat cyber spiral between the US and China the way Israel and Iran did for awhile there.
Nah, it’s always DNS.
Well, they always SAY its DNS. That doesn’t mean that’s what it actually was.
Does it count as a self-inflicted cyberattack if you play layoff roulette with your senior staff and piss off anyone else remaining via RTO chumpfuckery to the point that you hemorrhage engineers left and right for multiple consecutive years, up until you get to the point where none of the new hires know how to fix your bread and butter when it inevitably goes tits up? Because maybe that framing would work.
But no, it was DNS. More specifically, a DynamoDB instance became unreachable by their control plane due to failed DNS resolution. Then, big bada boom. Recovery took significantly longer than usual on account of the aforementioned staffing issue.
How does this have anything to do with layoffs? They say this every AWS outage from years ago. It was a race condition on a DNS setting that wiped out a major one. Don’t artiunute to malice which is likely stupidity. DNS is incredibly easy to eff up and impossible to alert on
I’m not saying that a disgruntled ex-employee did something, I’m saying that due to brain drain – in part due to layoffs in the name of “cost cutting” – AWS had no experienced staff left who knew how to not fall into one of the incredibly easy DNS pitfall traps, and moreover, this had a direct impact on recovery time. It is 100% stupidity at an upper management level.
No chance it was a cyber attack. This is a very regular occurance, and it’s because AWS is a labyrinthian nightmare of independently developed services that all rely on one another in a terribly incestous way.
It’s an ongoing problem with AWS that has happened before and will happen again. The reason why it seems bigger is that more companies than ever have AWS services and social media blows everything up into grand historical events. It’s simply the result of an old system that has experienced a lot of growth and changes which are held together with duct tape, paperclips, and chewing gum. The obvious fixes are too expensive and slower than just putting up with waiting for the DNS caches to clear and resolve over the course of several days. Basically, the fault lies with privatization and all the “optimization” that comes with system design under capitalism.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I had a thought that it might be some sort of error that occurred from the merger of ring and flock, along with some sort of direct backdoor access given to the fash.
I have zero evidence for this, it’s just idle speculation.

no no no no no no no this cant be happening. my drake bell huffing helium from a balloon in his car with his son in the backseat jpeg is losing value every second!!! im ruined!!!
i was right in the middle of deploying my slurp juices when this happened.
my dad went kinetic on me at the dinner table for using his cresit card.
how come they don’t make super neat block on a chain containing images, that would make them wildly more expensive and rare, smdh.
This author doesn’t know how blockchain works. The blockchains didn’t go down, what is pointing to the blockchains like markets did.
Imagine having your million dollar “investment” atop a Jenga tower stacked to its absolute limit which, on its own, would collapse with a light breeze, with every block being controlled by separate individual actors, any one of whom could collapse the tower by fucking off and becoming a monk or something
Now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time
When the power goes out at a bank, do the vaults not simply unlock and open?
