Not sure if you'r being scarcastic, but... https://api.left-pad.io/?str=be%20careful%20what%20you%20wis...
That's great! I'd like to use this but sending my enterprise data to a third party is not very secure. Do they provide a docker image or ami?
Pretty cool. I did look at my calendar quickly to see that it's not April 1. The "How we made this" part makes for a great parody of cloud computing.
I don't get it.
Listening to the essentially random sequence of notes, fancy recognizing Feynman's point
What was Feynman's point? I've got Pi/Listen going in the background, and it's quite pleasant, so I'm doubly interested.

It kind of reminds me when all bitcoin private keys were leaked: http://directory.io/
Edit: It's impressive, but still funny.

Most folks on HN are part of the startup crowd, and what that crowd misses is that while GCP is technically superior in every way, they have no idea how to sell to an enterprise. Google's sales method is, "There's the docs, good luck". Enterprises don't like that. They like to be hand held, they like lots of humans taking them out for lunches and dinners. So far Google has not shown any inclination that they know how…
Did you even watch GCPNext? The entire event was enterprise-focused. They brought a half-dozen companies on stage to basically say the same thing over and over again: "We moved to Google cloud, its so much better, Google helped us every step of the way." Its possible these companies were lying, but I think that conference should be evidence enough for any prospective customers that Google is ready.
Some very old-school enterprises are working with Google to onboard GCP in their organisations. A few of them even spoke at the event. I'm assuming they've done due diligence to ensure that Google will devote time and attention span to GCP and not treat it like a "side project".
Also, looking at this logically, whether Google offers GCP or not, you can't deny that that they'll continue to refine their internal infrastructure. Their internal platform is one of their crown jewels. It just makes sense to offer that to businesses willing to pay for it.

I've always wondered if you take the digits from Pi, do they represent a pseudo random sequence or not?

Have you even used the service?
Currently a customer. But thank you for asking.
What did you mean by no functioning customer support?

All that stack and overhead to serve what is basically static data? Come on, if this was released ~2 weeks from now it would be funny... It kind of reminds me when all bitcoin private keys were leaked: http://directory.io/ Edit: It's impressive, but still funny.
