To be fair, this is exactly how I use Netflix. I have a free app that I pay to use completely outside the app store. Not sure of the actual rules, but it's definitely possible.

I'm really interested in this market. Does anyone know where having easy-to-build floorplans are actually useful? Especially without expensive HW setups like this?

This would normally be the case, but for small projects with a small number of contributors, they are always free to dual-license their own code, even "retro-actively". Anything that was already released would still be available under GPL, but new edits could in theory be licensed under whatever terms they want, independent of how "derivative" it is. For large open source projects without a copyright assignment clause, this is essentially impossible, but for small projects it's relatively easy, assuming you can track down all the contributors. IANAL.

no. name picking is a rabbit hole, proving your product/service is far more important. pick something unique so that people can google it and come up with a meaningful result. If it becomes a problem, you can always change it AFTER you've proven your idea.

sorry man, it's just not that useful in it's current form. Ranking reviews by usefulness might help, but it's a babystep. I think what I would find more useful is being able to compare camera's and lenses side by side, although there are certainly sites that already do that. I think people care about 1) budget 2) lens ecosystem considerations 3) the "gotchas" (hard to quantify, but you see stuff like "this camera requires you to hunt through 7 menus just to change this one setting", or this would be a great camera except _____), which your site does very little to address.

Didn't get it. Found your ig profile. tried it. seems very un-intuitive. not sure people will understand it or go through all the trouble. [See Image -> goto profile -> click link in profile -> find image again -> click image -> go to website]

I feel like something that simply 302'd the user to the most recently posted URL would make more intuitive sense, but with obvious drawbacks.

To me the obvious use case is querying your log files as stored on s3. Query for a specific combination of features, or do some (simple) processing on them.

It's really only useful for a small list of file formats. Doesn't really do much for you if you primarily use s3 for binary data or static web hosting.

Lame. Love my pebble. Original Kickstarter backer. Currently rocking the pebble time steel.

Anybody know whether it is kosher to use Rekognition (or comparable Google/Azure/Clarify solutions) as a source of "supervised" data to bootstrap your own in-house ML models? I'm pretty sure the TOS would frown upon that, but it would beat manually tagging your own datasets, plus its hard/impossible for them to enforce.

EDIT: in retrospect, the pricing means its probably not economically viable.

Re: users auth. Isn't that what Cognito is supposed to be? I mean, I don't fully understand it, but I think so.

As for the cold boot issue, I thought the standing solution was to have a "fast-exit" ping-like code-path within the lambda. Query it on a regular basis (you can even do it with a lambda scheduled-event). That way your lambda should be kept warm.

Yeah. Same. Similar thing happened to me when lambda came out. I'm guessing they are still rolling it out to everyone.
