The only way CC credits will expire is if I (the founder) die and my beneficiaries liquidate the business

That's not a like-for-like comparison. You need to compare CC to the c8a range of AWS, on-demand only. That's where the 1/3 comes from. For example: c8a.medium (1vCPU/2GiB RAM/no S…

This is aimed at CFOs, not hobbyists

It's the case because once you buy cloud credits you are in an entirely unregulated space. At Carolina Cloud, that means your cloud credits are nothing more than an audited and bac…

This is correct, if you put in $1000 you could basically run a small dedicated VM in perpetuity.

This is interest on credits, not on cash. Once you start paying interest on cash you need a banking license. I think you'd be fine even in Europe paying interest on credits.

Just curious whether anyone's seen this scam? 10-4 by WEX is a diesel rewards program for truckers in the USA which is likely usually considered a low-risk merchant. This was with …

After reading their SEC filing I would push back on that slightly. I think the main reason Ryanair is so cheap is that they get insanely good deals with the airports because they b…

About 1/3 of their revenue is ancillary (the dark patterns are there to cause ancillary revenue). I just flew from Bournemouth to Alicante on Ryanair for £50. A similar flight in t…

I have no idea how people are burning $2k. I pay $100/mo and it's built an absolute crap ton of stuff for me. And my co-founder uses it 24/7 as well. Maybe we spend too much time a…

I don't understand the pessimism here. You never know the use cases for quickly and automatically rotating domains. There have always been bots, spammers and scammers. I'm interest…

That's weird, I'm on the $100/mo and I use it for around 2-4hrs a day often with multiple terminal windows and I never even hit 20% of my quota.

This rules. Just closed on a bunch of data science I was doing on the Medicaid dataset thanks to this. Very timely, zero bugs. Well done Trevor and team!
