From the makers of DynamoDB and Firecracker comes "access logs to one of our foundational services".
S3 server access logs aren't always delivered, but when they are it's by freight.

Roborace is the world first driver-less/autonomous motorsports category. This is one of their first live-broadcasted events. This was the second run. It drove straight into a wall.

Self proclaimed "greatest democracy on earth" accelerating towards one party system whatever the election outcome. Much inspiring, so wow.

Polling in Texas shows Biden and Trump neck-and-neck. That’s 38 electoral votes, a Senate seat, and a handful of congressional seats up for grabs. Winning Texas would not only guarantee victory in 2020, it would remake the electoral map for generations. It’s a top priority.
Upon cursory analysis, we found no vendor implements all of our poorly vetted requirements, forcing us to implement our own solution to this deceptively mundane problem.

This article should have cited usenix.org/conference/nsdi18… or fastly.com/blog/building-and…. I get why it doesn't, but not citing work due to affiliation harms authors, not competitors. My green card application was rejected due to lack of industry impact. Guess how USCIS determines that?

Cloudflare marks themselves as green and safe on their site. But yet I can still access their website on cloudflare from an RPKI invalid IP address block. Or should I say: My CDN (@Cloudflare) does not implement BGP safely. Check out [...] blah blah blah

"Toilet rolls became a constant presence in the iconography of late capitalism, mirroring the role of armillary spheres in renaissance portraiture. When held, the roll signifies the power of its bearer."

How much toilet roll has this guy stocked at home that he doesn't mind talking to Sky news and show the rolls on his windowsill? Hahaha

So some Benfica fans are traveling to the wrong City of Frankfurt. They went to Frankfurt (Oder) in Eastern Germany instead of Frankfurt (Main). Oh boy. #SGEBenfica

Burn out assembling your own funeral pyre while bystanders happily cheer you on because you're "getting things done".
Dan Na@dxna7 Mar 2019
An opinion I find myself repeating in a lot of 1:1s: The key to getting things done in a mid-sized (100-1200) company, especially one that's grown a lot recently, is your willingness to see things through to the end and internal refusal to be blocked.
