On the iPhone I get redirected to the Apple Store page for the Apple Watch. Nice humor.

Is this different, like is it the foundation for the OP project? - It looks way more complicated to set up, also there seems to be no easy to access GUI.

How could you possibly know how you really looked like walking in those said places? You haven’t seen yourself walking there. Also, you haven’t seen all of the possible angles that this cinematic camera would capture and replay.

This is an interesting concept about memories, part of them is just made up by our brains.

Edit: So the next time you have an argument about a thing that happened or how it happened, ask yourself, do you really remember or is your brain filling the gaps?

Ignoring the fact, that 15/1100 shares are ~1.36% so in your case they had to add roughly a 100x the current shares, not 10x like in your example. This already reads like the company was not doing well at that point.

Side note: If it wasn't a down round, measured from your entry event, your shares gross value still went up.

In general: If the company needs 100k in cash, and all shareholders add cash relative to their share in the company, there is no dilution, cash is added, all is good. If some or all of the current shareholders can't add cash relative to their shares, you need an external investor, that investor has to "get shares from somewhere". If the investor would buy them from the current shareholders directly, there would be no new money in the company, the money would go to the shareholders, that is not what we want here. So new shares are created and only shareholders that do not do a pro rata investment dilute their shares relative to their current share, and maybe a partial pro rata investment, to make up for these new shares, which is fair. Without a down round, valued individually for each entry event of the current shareholders, nobody loses any money here.

I do not understand why you are upset. Am I missing smth?

If not done correctly, that is the default result with Cloudfront + S3. You set the index and error page to your index.html. That way you get SPA routing but a 404 for all non root routes. The author needs to add a Lambda to rewrite the HTTP response depending on the route, some 404s should be rewritten to be 200s.

It would be a nice feature if StackOverflow would blank out (####) patterns that potentially match passwords or at least offer this if their system detects a potential password in your post.

AFAIK this is a reference to a movie and the scene in question is Hitler shouting "nein" multiple times.

I highly doubt this is the origin. I think its just the last three digit number.

Similar? That is excatly what 429 was made for, or not? This is weird or just lazy.

I was wondering as well. I am pretty sure it is a typo and `95.8` should be `94.8`, that would fit the 0.1ms to 0.2ms diff the `99.99999` and `max` seem to have in the article.
