Many corporates move very slowly and adopt 1 provider and stay put for a couple year.

I mean the whole ebs complaint is invalid you are complaining about a san disk vs local disk. If you want high speed local storage use a d instance with nvme storage.

Its called economies of scale. When they server 200000 ai subscriptions they dont expect everyone to use the max. They expect some will use more and some will use less and at the end of the day it will even out. Thats how every service works that is for the masses. As soon as you want a guaranteed 1000 tokens you should pay for that.

There is nothing stopping you from using google models just get the correct product, you can pay for tokens then they do not care what you use it for.

I don't understand why any solo dev would use aws. Its awfully priced and 99% of people can just use a vps and that should be enough. By the time you blow up and need cloud scale you can afford it.

I used to work one of the top 1000 visited websites, and we have massive bot issues where 60% of our traffic was bots and had to implement solutions similar to cloudflare to reduce the bots. Also, with the raise of ai, it's become even more important since a lot of ai data scraping companies do not respect robots.

Do you really want to implement http, ssl and tls; all by your self, what about security hash algorithms? Re inventing the wheel means you also get to go through all the bugs and s purity issue that these open source libraries went through. This is a type of opinion I would expect some one with no understanding about security saying.

You do know a router requires a public IP to even work you cannot not have a public IP. Either the people who rite those rules have no idea about computers or you miss read something.

Lol my company is paying a fortune to get off oracle. Anyone that does not need the million features that come with a oracle will eventually move off it. It's way too expensive to use in smaller environments or non mainframe environment's. Oracle has some of the worst pricing and sales techniques.
