I keep throwing large sums of money at AWS because they insist on making their products useable. AWS wants to me adopt their products, they want to remove barriers, they want to help me make money. I have no problem continuing to invest in their services.
AWS crushes it with customer service. Google is a PITA.
- We no longer want code running on developer machines. We're actively working to embrace remote execution for everything. - Repository boundaries exist for a reason. Why are you modifying two repositories at the same time? - We think collaboration is a good thing. Live coding allows for pairing and troubleshooting. It's great for knowledge sharing and for getting new developers up to speed.
I recommend Dell to my friends because the warranty coverage is so exceptional.
Too many companies have to hope of hiring the level of competence required to not suck. It's painful but true. AWS is cheap and serverless is popular when setting up a linux image security and correctly can take weeks or months.
If you are hoping to own a piece of the internet you can thrown Ghost on a cheap VPS for $5/month or you can pay someone else to host it for you for $30/month.
You can also take a 'free' option that makes money off your data and audience.
Cloudflare has made it really easy to give them my money.
