Not enough humans to deal with physical machines and the compliance issues around them. I agree if we are operating a cat meme distribution business that AWS starts to look a bit overkill.

You can do this, but it sucks and it's your entire job + over…

At the extreme scales you don't want AWS. If you're running a cat meme distribution business, a single senior skilled techie will cheaply get you set up on a VPS (or a bunch of them) with the services you need. If you're a…
What doesn't get talked about in these articles is the increasing impact to small business in the US. I run a small business (scanii.com) and I've noticed over the past year an increasing number of customers leaving us to European competitors, customers that have been happy with us for years, using our European region, but now have concerns over US foreign policy and are giving preferred treatment to EU suppliers.

Sure. That’s why they call you to verify that you open a new account. That’s why they ask me for company information. Because they don’t care…
They verify a phone number, but you can use the same number on as many accounts as you want, and it's just a verification code.

The tech bros lining up at Donald’s inauguration to kiss his ring suggests otherwise.
They are business leaders who need to do what's best for the business. They have to work with whoever is in office once elected.
