2016 Macbook Pro - was a total lemon with 3 keyboards, 2 screens and a logic board needing replacement. All handled under Apple Care but I was without the machine for a total of about 2 months across all those repairs. Even after repair, the keyboard was an abomination to type on.
I had a 2017 Macbook Pro and had to change display twice, motherboard, battery twice, and SSD. It still continued to give problems, after having basically changed every piece. Turns out the problems where coming from the power brick/charger.
Why not both? Tell me what's comforting and I'll tell you why you shouldn't be comforted; tell me why you're disconcerted and I'll tell you maybe something else. All we can do is be straight about things.
I'm an HN person before I'm a Fly.io person, and as an HN person I find the points you're trying to make --- anybody can see them throughout the thread simply by searching your name --- tedious.
As a businessperson, I don't think I have much to gain by genuflecting to the importance of reliability; everybody I care about on this site shares an understanding with us that reliability is important, though apparently not with you that all these systems are fallible. So I'm making the decision not to genuflect, and instead call you out --- you in particular, anonymous, venomous, green-named commenter --- as a a writer of boring and facile attempted dunks.
Are we not allowed to expect reliable uptimes from a cloud provider? What part of "fly.io has a documented history of prolonged downtimes and data redundancy issues" do you disagree with? Are you calling everybody liars who have had bad experience with fly.io, frankly, business and reputation loss that came as a result of trusting fly.io ?
That's not how flags work on HN: I can't flag your responses to me. For a variety of reasons, and for better or worse, I'm very comfortable with how I come across on HN.
To twist the knife just a little bit, I'll refer you though to the guidelines:
Please don't comment about the voting on comments. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading.
Just my take: Some parents are having growing concerns about the quality of basic education (reading, math, history) that their kids are receiving. Apparently questioning the effectiveness of how their tax dollars are spent makes them a homophobe and a racist. Oh, and probably "weird" too.
This is one of those posts that just tries to throw in as many rage baiting concepts at once in to maximize angry engagement.
Bait aside, nobody calls you homophobic for asking good faith questions about how the schools budget is spent. But it would be absurd to imply the 12 hours a year kids are taught about sexuality is somehow derailing the entire curriculum. When talking about revamping education, only people that have fully drank Kool aid would think "it's because all of that money is used to turn my kids gay".
I've had issues with both my personal and business accounts at Chase. Mostly due to the inept local branch manager. I've also had deposits flagged and delayed from clients that have been paying me for years with never an issue previously.
I'd love to switch to a new bank. Any recommendations?
