I’ve been in the tech/startup world since the early ‘00s and I can definitively say you best start believin’ in Silicon Valley episodes; you’re in one.
Yeah, first time I watched I was like holy shit, are they filming my life? So much they get right in that show, especially the egos and pettiness
I knew from the very first scene. Some company had just got bought so they had a big party and paid Kid Rock to play. But everybody was in polos and khakis and wanted to have quiet conversations and Kid gave up halfway through the first song.
I was at that party. It wasn’t Kid Rock, but I was at that party
all the devs at work would talk about how much they love the show.
they all thought they were Bachmans, but were in reality Jareds.
I couldn’t watch the show because it was too triggering to me. Imagine working on a team of Jareds…
Personally I always identified with Gilfoyle but knew deep down I was a Richard.
I’ve had a customer ask for me by saying “get us that guy who looks like Gilfoyle, he’s the only one who seems to know what’s going on.”
Though I am polyamorous, have been associated with the occult, have long hair and a beard, and wear rectangular glasses, so I can understand how they’d be mistaken.

These were minor outages. Not excusing AI. Just saying
Except that AWS is (for better or for worse) a tier 1 network solutions provider, in part because of advertised uptime. Due to that, it is possible for a minor AWS outage to result in lack of 911 service in an area, for example. Hopefully they have the common sense to try out these new things on less critical nodes though.
If they don’t spread their infra across multiple availability zones, they deserve to die
/s
they deserve to die
yeah but their customers sure fucking don’t deserve it.
Is joke
isn’t funny
across multiple availability zones
Better spread across different providers.
Remember that time a popular cloud hoster lost a customer’s data, including their in-service backups? Luckily, they had off-service backups.
I got a couple seasons into this and then for some reason the next season that came on was like 2 seasons ahead of where I was supposed to be. I got through like 3 or 4 episodes until I got really confused and looked at the seasons and realized that Hulu had the seasons mixed up. I got so frustrated I quit watching it :/
