#92This is some great content marketing by Taloflow. Having not paid attention to this story I didn’t realize they chose R because it was one letter behind S in the alphabet. If Cloudflare was a smaller company they’d probably get sued pretty fast. That has happened for much sillier and vain reasons. But I doubt there’s much to gain via the courts in the current state of things. This seems to be standard price competiti…

#93I was really hoping it'd go into unicode characters.

The whole thing is like german agglutinative nouns. Bits of product keep piling up, but each one has the most generic possible name. But the least forgivable one has to be the XBox One X. I hadn't even realised there was an XBox One X Series X.

AWS has 24/7 phone/email/chat support on the business and enterprise support plans (with severity-based SLAs) with not only a ticketing system but a case management API, and business hours support on their developer support plan. Your sales rep sounds like they just want to maintain control of the relationship.
On Azure you can file a ticket and an engineer will be blowing up your phone in short order. That's on the developer plan. The expensive enterprise planes are the exact same support only faster with a guaranteed SLA. Azure smokes AWS on docs, community, and support. Just my experience...over and over again. I'm at a huge high profile company where we have dedicated AWS staff. We have a dedicated email address at AWS…
Not my experience. We're waiting for them to sort out a broken Azure AD B2C instance for over a year.

If consumers are so likely to confuse "S3" and "R2" that a court would grant trademark enforcement to S3 over this, then Mazda could have successfully sued BMW over the confusion between MX-2 and M3, not to mention the total havoc such a court judgment would wreak upon the SMT labeling industry: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28777350 If Cloudflare had an entire AWS-simulation business and was making a clear ef…
The MX-3 started production in 1991, the M3 started production in 1986, so if anything BMW would have been suing Mazda in this situation ;-)

Me neither. I thought it was Xbox Series X, not to be confused with the Xbox Series S.

#100Wouldn't T4 have been a better name? sure it does create the risk of a U5, but prequels are not usually better. (Unless you love endless discussion about intergalactic politics).
That's what my NAS is called
