Was already working through porting my startup’s web app from docker to lambda via layers and such, but it was a hassle. Then I read today about the 1ms billing and got motivated. THEN I see this about running containers, my life just got much easier. What a time to be alive!

Awhile back I started using a video's 'like' button simply as a mechanism by which I could tell if I had watched something before since I did get repeat recommendations. Then, if I clicked a recommended video again later, I'd know I had already seen it. Over time, as far as I could tell, YT stopped recommending videos I'd seen before as there were fewer and fewer videos I would check out that I had already seen.

May also be attributed to something else, or I'm getting old, but it seems to have been a fortunate outcome.

/me wonders if they used the bots themselves to judge the competition.

I haven't been able to run down the parameters of the test in this case. I imagine there are some humans mixed in to obfuscate the machines? (Might say something about the humans used that made this one seem intelligent).
