You already lose your data after instance restart so I think that full region outage is already out of question.

Idk how an AWS region would respond to a power outage, but i have tested this in AWS Outpost, and there, if you power down a rack, then power it back again, the baremetal instances will not be recreated. (I was surprised as I was expecting the EC2 health check to terminate them, but it does not work like that.) My understanding is that if you stop/start an instance, your local storage is gone (as the instance might even end up in a different host), but if you just reboot the instance, it should keep the local storage.

So are drug dealers

Props data passed to React itself isn't immutable which is probably one of the missing bricks.

React only checks references but since the objects aren't immutable they could have changed even without the reference changing.

Immutability also has a performance price which is not always great.


Yes, you can mutate props. But no, it's probably not going to do what you want if you did it intentionally. If react added Object.freeze() (or deepFreeze) to the component render invoker, everything would be the same, except props would be formally immutable, instead of being only expected to be immutable. But this seems like a distinction without much of a difference, because if you just try to use a pattern like that without having a pretty deep understanding of react internals, it's not going to do what you wanted anyway.

And the US with Oracle famously making it illegal to benchmark the performance of their database.

Didn't Atlassian have a clause in their TOS where you weren't allowed to discuss the performance of their cloud?

... you can say anything about an empty set so when there is no performance ...

Nobody obeys this, right ? There's gotta be people anonymously posting performance results.

Because never before have we seen inverse power laws applied to table queries we were told would be faster than Postgres. They lied.

I think that you can find something morally wrong with most companies or practices within these companies.

Oh if you are looking for dirt, you can find dirt allmost anywhere, but im gemeral I do see a difference in making a website for a kindergarten, vs applying the most efficient tech to track and target children with manipulative ads.

Sure, but maybe you'll have to ad dark patterns, track users or create ad campaigns yourself for this kindergarten website.

Maybe that kindergarten want to cut food and people costs to make more money. Which could lead to very real consequences for the kids as well.


Yes and if you have ethics then you can say no. Also I never saw a Kindergarten website that even remotely did this.

I think moral purity tests for work places is a delicate and tough question event for software development.

Which work places would you feel are acceptable?

What about a bank? They invest or loan money to weapons manufacturers.

What about a renewable energy company? What if that company accepted investment with funds from Saudi Arabia / UAE / Qatar?

Etc.


That's exactly the argument made by Putin to invade Ukraine. Congratulations.

I think that there is a difference between wishful thinking about how things should be versus preparing based on how things are.

Also diplomacy doesn't have a great track record for the past 100 years.


To me this reads the same way some religious people believe that it is not possible for atheists to have morals because morals come from the Bible.

If only the had written Firefox in Rust, they wouldn't have had these issues .
