They started on GCP and have been migrating to their own "Metal" DC doing exactly what you're describing. But GCP is still their overflow given how rapidly they are growing and holds some amount of networking that routes to their DC.

Poisoning the data has been around for at least a decade now. I used to work for a very large pricing analytics company that would track product pricing for Fortune 500 manufacturers.

We found on several occasions that some shady retailers would find the CIDR of the manufacturers corp networks and comply with the MAP policies on pricing if traffic came from them. Then when our bot went through with obviously generic AWS / Proxy ips we would see a much lower price that broke their agreement. That one was a fun realization for the manufacturers as to the level of shadiness some retailers would go through.

Then change it through amendments.

However you likely wont be able to because not enough people agree with you to do so. Our constitution was made to be specifically hard to change unless a vast majority agreed. That's a feature, not a bug. If a change can't be agreed upon at the national level it should stay at the state / local level.

> It should, however, cause people who voted for this (hypothetically dead or disabled or otherwise incapacitated) politician to see themselves as the piles of shit they are.

Case in point, it protects us from reactionary changes based on vitriol like this instead of substance.

Does Walmart/CostCo/BestBuy/Kroger/etc not do this exact thing?

Laravel already has multiple ways to deploy (other than rolling your own):

Laravel Forge - Deploys a VPS on your own AWS/DigitalOcean/Hetzner/etc - https://forge.laravel.com/

Laravel Vapor - Deploys a serverless function on your AWS account to run your app/cron/queues https://vapor.laravel.com

Laravel Cloud - Differs because it doesn't run on your infrastructure, so less time to setup/configure.

Yeah this is generating CVE numbers for resume clout.

Not that I'm aware of and this is likely now just a cloudflare worker that returns the IP they already have. I would imagine maintenance is basically zero as its feature complete.

There is always going to be false positives. Even more so with a tech/privacy minded userbase which uses ad blockers, disables JS, etc.

Some like it colder when they sleep. For instance I tend to keep mine at 69-71F depending on the time of year at night on my upstairs climate zone.

> in their peak can't handle 26 Celsius

Why would any athlete or group want to risk the chance of not being able to sleep well if they are too hot.

> Pro-tip if you ever want cheaper Adobe subscriptions is to cancel your sub and they’ll send you repeat offers at lower prices up to 60% off

I have found the same to be true with SiriusXM radio as well. You can ask the chat bot to cancel your account when a promo runs out and it will take you back down from $19/mo to like $6/mo. I setup a calendar item so I know when the promo is going to expire and do this. It's a PITA but it only takes 5 minutes.

It's not discrimination to say "the message you just sent is green because it went over SMS (and now RCS) and we can't verify the E2E encryption, deliverability, etc like we can with iMessage".
