Can someone ELI5 the difference between using AWS availability zone affinity and then simply dropping the downed AZ at the top most routing point?

Wouldn't that be the same thing, with the obvious caveat you are t using the routing technology Slack is using (We don't - We use vanilla AWS offerings)

We do a fairly simple technical interview using replit to complete some python tasks, most of which chat GPT can complete instantly.

The number of people who come from these large contracting type companies who can't complete the first set of questions is alarming.

chatGPT can do Leetcode hards, so not a very good litmus test fwiw

I find comments like this weird, I never think about purchases that small. I honestly have no idea how much I pay for tortillas normally but $7 would not even be a blip on my mental radar

This is because you probably make tech money (I do too).

My family was poor growing up and we shopped by cent per oz, and noticed any significant price changes and went for alternatives.

Planned dinner/produce/meat based off what was on sale, etc.

Many, many people notice when milk goes up 50 cents. I still do.

Gas stations and corner stores also tend to have the highest prices. Climate change policy advocates are doing a real disservice to their cause by not being honest with people about the sacrifices/hardships these polices will cause in the short term. Deception is not a viable long term political strategy.

If you take the corner store model as far as many European, NY, etc cities - You remove the $300-400+/mo cost of a car (ballparking here)

Otherwise if the local shops are more expensive (in any meaningful way), consumers would simply drive the additional N miles to the Walmart Supercenter as things kind of are as is
