Sure, that's true. The thing is: this was the same requested (and cancelled) range on the same file(s), over and over (it was a bug). Looking at this from the outside, even some internal S3 caching should have had many…
Sorry for not having this made clearer (we'll fix this part of the post): the gotcha is not that AWS does not honor range requests, it's that canceling those will still add the full range of bytes to your egress bill…
I can assure you this was not AI-generated, apart from the 'symbolic image' (which should be fairly obvious :). Maybe that's just our non-native English shining through. In any case, as a small European company in the…
You are right, this is about canceling range requests and still getting billed, not about requesting ranges and getting billed for the complete file egress. Sorry; we'll make the post clearer.
Sorry, I think that part of our write-up is misleading (I was involved in analyzing the issue described here). To our best understanding, what happens is the following: - A client sends range requests and cancels them…
You are right: the horizontal scroll only appears if you scroll down to the bottom of the page. But there is also a (more sensibly layouted) program shown on each streaming page (e.g.…
Totally agree. I think his paper "Can a Systems Biologist Fix a Tamagotchi?" is really nice, shows some of the fundamental conceptional issues and very fun reading nonetheless:…
Just as an anecdotal counterpoint to all the negative reviews here: I have a 2015 Tuxedo notebook that is still going strong, and never had any issue with it. There is quite a bit of fan noise, which I don't hear as I'm…
Ah cool, I didn't know about that. Thanks!
Instead of writing blog posts as a vital sign, maybe it would help to offer some regularly updated pre-defined "bundles" of ST together with package sets for a certain audience (JS/TS/Python developer, etc.). Many…
It's strange that their website is so bad (lots and lots of ads, basically unusable without an ad-blocker) while their apps (in particular, Espresso) are a joy to use.
I think one way to 'treat' this would be to acknowledge that certain things just cannot be optimized easily with outside incentives, and to simply accept that there will be some inevitable waste when you let 'good…
Redshift still works quite well. Maybe it should be pre-installed and better 'advertised'. Many people still don't know that this is a very nice feature to have.
- FLAVOR: Desktop - HEADLINE: improve VPN support - DESCRIPTION: the WLAN UI supports some OpenVPN options, but not all, and fails silently on importing non-compatible config files. This is very confusing for new…
I noticed an improvement over the last version, so I'd give it a spin.
