This would be more believable if Elon paid his cloud bills.
X is probably still up, so he must be paying *some* of them
u7in-32tb.224xlarge's get you every time
That's the name of one of his children, isn't it?
But my code runs 3% faster on that instance than a t3.small - it'd be inefficient to use anything else.
An entire 3%!!!? My bad, carry on then.
*bill of 40 billion dollars shows up*
"Oh shit, I'm going to have to work twice as hard for a couple of hours to make that back"
*Tweets twice as often*
I saw this on all, and I don't get the joke. Any programmers care to explain in lay terms?
Amazon charges per hour for renting a server. Some are very expensive. It’s a common mistake to forget to turn off a server after you’ve finished using it and end up paying more than you planned.
EC2 are cloud based virtual machines, very easy to spin one up exactly as you need it to run whatever.
But they're billed hourly and they get very expensive very very fast especially when you leave it on (the hourly billing is for a machine that's on and running) and have shit tons of resources on it. You can have multiple *terabyte* RAM machines at the click of a button
Thanka for the detailed explanation!
The other thing they forgot to mention is that getting Amazon to actually tell you what anything will cost, or a breakdown of what your bill is, is like pulling teeth.
Oh good to know, I'm more of a GCP guy myself and it's billing tool isn't too shabby IMO lolol
Amazon's billing tool is the most useless thing I've ever seen lol. it's like "$XYZ of your bill was server compute!"
like, there's 40 ec2s, elastic beanstalk instances, fargate, kubernetes, like what the fuck is 'server compute' and what's the breakdown of the actual individual parts?
It's not even unhelpful, it's literally worse than useless lmao
I presume Google and Microsoft are similarly bad.
Oh is that why RAM is expensive AF anymore? Post quantum serverless demand for TB of RAMDisk?
What do you mean? You can just download more RAM!

You can rent cloud machines from Amazon, they can get pretty expensive if you forget about them
Ahhh, thanks
In other news: Jeff Bezos is now the richest person in the world.
I don't believe your opinion
