I enabled Cloudtrail to log all DynamoDB read/write data events when trying to troubleshoot an issue. Even though I only left this enabled for a few days, the Cloudtrail line item was $5k more than it should have been. My back of the napkin math with assumptions came out to be 100 times less than that, so I had a really awkward support email asking them to reverse the charges, which they did fortunately.

Is this an issue when using the Heroic launcher as well? None of the links mention this being an issue with Heroic.

No u

Hah thanks for that, edited the spelling

Agreed with this, but I don’t think it was entirely the point of Destin’s video, as more of his focus was about keeping jobs local to the United States. Unfortunately his bit at the end about companies spending more money for local manufacturing is not how Wall Street works, and that’s all corporations care about. If from a national standpoint, retaining this knowledge is vital to the security of the country, the government should be investing in keeping that production in the countries via tax subsidies or other incentives. Corporations won’t do it on their own if it means less profit for them, and imposing tariffs will just be passed to the citizens with no industrial gain.

What’s the line of self sufficient? I remember a story about a guy who made a BLT sandwich from scratch, it took him 6 months and thousands of dollars. Sure he was self sufficient, but it’s not sustainable to produce 100% of everything yourself. In the Smarter Everyday video, almost everything was supplied from another vendor, and there was no mention on where the raw materials came from to make the parts made in the America. If anything, being able to supply the chain mail from China (via India) allowed the production to be resilient to change.

I also watched the whole thing, and have to imagine that a lot of xenophobic stuff was edited out when they found out their chainmail from India was actually from China. That section was so cringe, they had someone on earlier who spoke Chinese, why not ask him what it meant or research some more, than make assumptions and air that lightly filtered.

I get he’s making a point to invest in local manufacturing, but then knowingly having the excess supply of chainmail come from India defeats the point he’s trying to make. Considering the handle for the first 2000 are from costa rica and the excess chainmail after the 2000 units was at least thought to be from India, it seems rare anything being sold is 100% Made in America, yet has a price tag 4x as much.

You’re getting a lot of comments correctly pointing out that ARPANET was actually invented by the US in the 1970s and was the precursor to the Internet. I think it’s your question which is phrased incorrectly, and not the point you’re trying to make. Assuming this and rephrasing your question to mean the World Wide Web (not the Internet), you’re correct, that was created by Tim Berners-Lee while working at CERN in the 1990s, approximately 20 years after ARPANET. This brought along Hypertext websites, and basically was another step in the foundation of the internet as we know it today.

So rephrasing your question to “why do americans assume they invented the web (websites)?”, it’s mainly because the underlying infrastructure of the internet was originally developed by the US government, so even before websites existed, domain names were heavily American leaning, with .gov being US Government websites, and .edu being US Universities, etc. Other countries at the time had ccTLD for their country code, like .uk, .au, etc and when it came time to assign domain names, they chose to use .co.uk or .com.au for example, rather than .com.

I assume that americans rarely encounter a .com.au or other ccTLD domain names, and largely are going to .com websites. They probably assume that the .au TLD was tacked on to support Australia because they didn’t invent the internet.

Is there a really a quota on the CSAM detection, or do you mean catbox would only get a free 1GB of storage? No one’s saying that Cloudflare would give away 1 PB of traffic for free, obviously catbox would have to pay for it. Still though, Cloudflare or another CDN adds a lot of value which would be hard to replicate.

At that volume, you need to scale a lot, which is what CDNs are designed to do. Moving 1 PB a month in traffic would be like a sustained upload speed of 3 Gbps for an entire month, which is huge for any ISP, and cost a lot. You’d probably need to divide the traffic going out which means multiple ISP connections, and more machines for redundancy. Probably at that scale, connections are coming from all over the world, so to reduce latency, you’ll need locations in multiple continents to serve quicker. As you can probably tell, this becomes more than just one time purchases and electricity costs.

CDNs have dedicated fiber links between geographic locations and negotiated volume discount rates on bandwidth with other ISPs. From a cost and a reliability perspective, it means you can deliver content for less than hosting it all on your own.

I think the criteria is that both women talking need to be named. The point being that if the same rules were applied to men in film, it would be easy for everything to pass, but when applied to women, unfortunately it’s difficult for many films to pass the criteria, or require a lot of scrutiny.

How many sites are we talking about? I have like 600 passwords in my password manager, it would be insane to try to remember each of the rules for when I changed the password last.

♫ Way way back in the 1980’s

Secret government employees

Dug up famous guys and ladies

And made amuzing genetic copies

Now their clones are sexy teens

Now they’re going to make it if they tried

Loving, learning, sharing, judging

Time to laugh, and shiver and cry

They actually teach Electrical Engineers to yell IEEE when shocked by high voltage

This was a triumph

I’m making a note here

“Huge success”

It’s hard to overstate my satisfaction

Just remember if you need to do anything with subtitles in FFMpeg, you need to install libass

More than just upsetting to viewers, the messaging of Snuffleupagus was leading to kids thinking that adults wouldn’t believe them if they were being harmed:

The fear was that if we represented adults not believing what kids said, they might not be motivated to tell the truth. That caused us to rethink the storyline: Is something we’ve been doing for 14 years—that seemed innocent enough—now something that’s become harmful?

I’d like to see a remake of The United States of America where Donald Trump is never the president.
