Awhile back I was researching cloud instances for performance, And I noticed that AWS didn't have the latest generations of AMD/Intel. Which are far superior to Graviton 4.
It seems obvious to me that AWS using their market dominance to shift workloads to Graviton.
I think Graviton would still be much more energy efficient though? (I'm not sure)
I believe the main motivator for AWS is efficiency, not performance. $ of income per watt spend is much better for them on Graviton.

Have we forgotten they promised free forever then flipped? I’ll pass on this, thanks.

I think a bigger problem is the HN reader mind reading what the rest of the world wants. At least when an HN reader telling us what they want it's a primary source, but reading a comment about an HN reader postulating what the rest of the world wants is simply more noisy than an unrepresentative sample of what the world may want.
Point taken. However, would you say HN readers are an accurate average cross-section of broader society? Including interests and biases?

It is truly stupid that they are trying to make it more human-like. They should have added a radio button to turn off these sort of customizations because it doesn't help some of us. Just pisses me off. It is supposed to be an answering machine, not some emotional support system.
Classic case of thinking that the use-case HN readers want is what the rest of the world wants.

this is the latest mantra from people who have missed the boat. i'm like lol do you think that industry didn't learn anything (about financing structures) from the last one?
I guess by this logic we should never have a depression/recession/bubble burst ever again? We always learn from our mistakes!
We’re only ~1/7 of the way through this administration. There is so much more time left on the clock for shenanigans.
It’s hard to imagine three summers from now being anything other than a hellscape. I hope to God I’m wrong.
This was the same doomsday message in the last Trump term. Nothing happened.
Did you even read the comment thread before responding to GP? You're just spreading misinformation.
I read about this incident in detail even before it was posted on HN.
