Small follow-up: the italo-western style got renamed „spaghetti western“ (at least in GER). Associating the lonely cowboy with the lonely hacker we just end up nicely with a lot of spaghetti code & a product with as dubios as those westerns were. It’s fun when you watch first but it doesn’t age well

Trumps political agenda will hopefully learn why it’s called “Don’t mess with Zohran”.
I really hope New York is going to showcase to the world what is possible when you address the insecurities and make life a more enjoyable journey.

The question isn’t "why does Signal use AWS?" It’s to look at the infrastructural requirements of any global, real-time, mass comms platform and ask how it is that we got to a place where there’s no realistic alternative to AWS and the other hyperscalers. 3/
