  • Why do companies keep making this mistake? My full-time job is completely reliant on AWS and Microsoft and we’ve suffered. On the other hand I run a side business which uses smaller services for things (or self-hosts); hell my personal email is a tiny company in Switzerland.

    I’m constantly having better uptime than competitors in the shipping business and I rarely have outages of my own infrastructure. It’s kind of fun laughing at AWS and Microsoft businesses when my tiny website stays online while everyone else is offline.

    Ugh, super frustrating to witness this stuff at work.
