> As always, I asked the EC2 team for access to an instance in order to put it through its paces. The instances are available in Dedicated Host form, so I started by allocating a host.
Dedicated Hosts (https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/dedicated-hosts/) are more pricey than virtual instances (most EC2) and Dedicated Instances. Not sure if it's possible to containerize/sell as many virtual instances off a dedicated server without paying a separate high license fee to Apple.

Also maybe worth mentioning the PyPI team has 1-to-1 UX feedback/study for `pip` https://www.ei8fdb.org/thoughts/2020/03/pip-ux-study-recruit.... I'd be more interested opting in for open web survey (question and answer field) though. Nevertheless, great to see they're open to user feedback in forms other than Git issues.

Mostly things against Russia. Only one thing that was particularly interesting that, unlike US, EU never did an investigation on possible influence of Russia in their 2016 referendum/Brexit even though they were aware of it.
> We have not been provided with any post-referendum assessment of Russian attempts at interference, *.53 This situation is in stark contrast to the US handling of allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, where an intelligence community assessment54 was produced within two months of the vote, with an unclassified summary being made public. Whilst the issues at stake in the EU referendum campaign are less clear-cut, it is nonetheless the Committee’s view that the UK Intelligence Community should produce an analogous assessment of potential Russian interference in the EU referendum and that an unclassified summary of it be published

Watch the video at the bottom. It says:

> Other free ebooks don’t put much effort into professional-quality typography: they use "straight" quotes instead of “curly” quotes, they ignore details like em- and en-dashes, and they look more like early-90’s web pages instead of actual books.
True. I hope you guys get proper funding and keep this project on.
