Jacklyn Taylor (@Ronindrake2) reported@awscloud hey, got a simple question When your moderation refuses to post a review of a book, can you do everyone a favor and instead of saying "one of these things" Say "here is the specific part that violates our guidelines. Pls fix it" It would be, so much more helpful

Mario Giampieri (@mario_giampieri) reported@AWSSupport Another update- I received a canned response explaining to me what sign in credentials are and sending me a link to open a new account. Eleven months of this.

Carlos DP 🤖🇺🇸 (@carlosdponx) reported@MarwaEldiwiny They’re not hiding it’s a G1, it’s obviously a G1 and they don’t lie if asked. I don’t advertise explicitly my robots are built on G1 either, because it’s a distraction when marketing like this. The end user doesn’t care. It’s like if you sold a SaaS product and mentioned the servers run on Amazon AWS, it’s irrelevant to the user. Their tweets are marketing posts, not technical reports. Also idk what you mean by the G1 “having a lot of issues”. It’s the most reliable and mature humanoid platform you can actually buy today (and we have no data on reliability of closed platforms).

Amanda (@AMyrick1989) reported@krassenstein @Tesla Be careful. All these at the same time makes me think they are hacked, I’m fairly certain Amazon AWS was hacked that day when everything when down, given my Grok we hacked and no one ever gave explanation. I’m no expert but ya know, all these signs are pointing to this. Also, the Obamas helped produce a movie where someone hacked our satellites and alluded to it being the Middle East and all the teslas went haywire and self drive themselves to pile up on all the freeways. I wish I remembered the name however I made note of this terrifying movie given Obama clearly knows things we don’t. Just sayin, these incidents aren’t scattered. I would not be driving that ***** if I were you.

Keith Townsend (@CTOAdvisor) reportedI spent over $120 in @awscloud so far this month. Most of it has been on GPU instances and Xeon 6. This is the most I've spent since I've had a long-running VM as a web app server a few years ago.

Ritesh Roushan (@devXritesh) reportedA good architecture starts by separating document storage, signing, identity verification, and notifications into independent services. 1. API Gateway All requests (upload, sign, download, share) pass through the API Gateway. It handles authentication, rate limiting, request validation, and routing. 2. Document Service Contracts are uploaded directly to object storage (Amazon S3/GCS/Azure Blob). Metadata such as owner, participants, document status, and version history is stored in PostgreSQL. Large files never pass through application servers. 3. Identity Verification Service Before signing, users verify their identity using email OTP, SMS OTP, OAuth, or KYC providers depending on compliance requirements. A verified identity token is issued before allowing signatures. 4. Signing Service Each signature request creates an immutable signing event. Documents are locked while applying a signature to prevent conflicts when multiple users sign simultaneously. Optimistic locking or version numbers help resolve concurrent updates. 5. Audit Log Service Every action upload, view, download, sign, reject, revoke is published to Kafka. Events are stored in an append-only audit database with timestamps, signer identity, IP address, and device information, creating a tamper-resistant audit trail. 6. Notification Service Kafka events trigger email, SMS, and push notifications asynchronously so users are notified instantly without slowing down API responses. 7. Security • Encrypt files at rest (AES-256) • TLS for data in transit • Short-lived signed URLs for downloads • RBAC for document access • Hash every signed document (SHA-256) to detect tampering • Store digital certificates securely using a KMS/HSM 8. Scalability Deploy services independently behind load balancers. Use Redis for caching document metadata and sessions. Object storage handles millions of documents, while Kafka decouples services and absorbs traffic spikes. Read replicas improve download performance, and multi-region replication ensures disaster recovery. This architecture provides secure storage, concurrent signing, legal compliance, high availability, and scales to millions of contracts worldwide.

Christian Nonis (@christiannonis) reportedI am (unfortunately) dealing with @googlecloud and @awscloud and what I am noticing is that in months they are unable so solve any kind of problem, it’s like being bounced back by ai replies that are sold like assistance from humans, saying that they are “working on that” but nothing changes in months and also replies are all the same.. idk if they are experiencing a shortage in human labor or what’s going on but the experience has become worse than ever

Certified AI Dev (@MisterPrashant) reportedThis solution to this problem is AI traffic monetization. If you are an owner of a platform that provides some valuable data, you can put the data behind a paywall for the AI traffic by charging the bot fraction of a penny for using their content. x402 Payment Required protocol tells the bot that the content requires payment and the bot settles the transaction quickly on a stable coin at which point the content becomes accessible. This way,people running their search bots does not require subscription to 10 different services and can easily access data from anywhere at a very minimal cost and the owners of the sites also win as the traffic count to their paywalled site will generate income. This is not a concept. The framework to build this is already available in @awscloud today.

mark seery (@140ismymax) reportedPeter DeSantis talking at #agenticaisummit There will NOT be one AI chip type. If multiple AI chips take multiple years to bring to market, you have to be making assumptions about model requirements in that time frame. It's a systems problem, including the network. Constraint drives innovation. Future is bright and built together. Peter DeSantis SVP, Foundational AI Models, Custom Silicon, Quantum Computing, Amazon @awscloud @amazon @BerkeleyRDI #AI

GIrls In Technology! (@francescaViking) reported@awscloud @amazonmturk are shuttering services barely months after announcing maintenance mode, giving barely a month now and leaving requesters and workers in the lurch. Amazon demonstrates again why it's terrible for businesses and users.

WPBeginner (@wpbeginner) reportedYou built your WordPress site over months (or years). One bad plugin/theme update can wipe it all out overnight. 😱 Plugin conflicts. Malware. A botched migration. A hacked server. The disasters that take down WordPress sites usually happen without warning. And here's the mistake most site owners make: they think their hosting provider's backup is enough. It's NOT. If the server fails, you lose both your site and the backup. We share the complete step-by-step guide for backing up your WordPress site the right way. Here is what you will learn: ✅ Use a Backup Plugin (Best for Most People): @DuplicatorWP is what we use across our sites. Full-site backups, disaster recovery links, and restore without having the plugin pre-installed. Free version available, Pro has scheduled backups. ✅ Use Your Hosting Provider's Backup: SiteGround (where WPBeginner is hosted) includes manual and automated daily backups on all plans. Bluehost partners with CodeGuard and Jetpack for their built-in options. ✅ Manual Backup With cPanel or FTP: Use cPanel's Backup Wizard for a full backup, or connect via FileZilla FTP to download your wp-content, themes, plugins, and wp-config.php files directly. ✅ Send Backups to Cloud Storage: Duplicator and UpdraftPlus both connect natively to Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, and Amazon S3. Never store backups on the same server as your website. If your host fails, both are gone. ✅ Set Up Automatic Scheduled Backups: Configure hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly backups in Duplicator based on how often you publish. eCommerce stores and busy blogs need daily. Slower-moving sites can get away with weekly. Ready to protect years of hard work with a proper WordPress backup system? Read the full ultimate step-by-step guide 👇 (Link is in the thread below)

Swaroop Hegde (@SwaroopH) reportedTIL: @awscloud has been racking up ipv4 charges on an old test instance of mine even though it uses dynamic IP. Just checked that their launch wizard deployed new instances with the same issue without warning 🤷

Corey Quinn (@QuinnyPig) reportedKinda funny that nobody's even making observations like this about @awscloud, if you want to go a level deeper down the irrelevance well.

Ümit Kaan Usta (@umitkaanusta) reported@AWSSupport I keep getting errors across the AWS Console where components or resource lists fail to load, showing messages like “An error occurred calling the API: describeAddresses.” Reloading sometimes fixes it temporarily. can you help? It's mostly on EC2 related stuff. us-east-1
