> The table above does not reflect our renewed cloud hosting agreement with a third-party provider, entered into on May 31, 2025. Under the terms of the non-cancellable agreement, we committed to purchase a minimum of $545.0 million in cloud hosting services over the next five years. This renewed agreement replaces a previous agreement with the provider.
$300k/DAY AWS bill. I wonder what the "non-cancellable" savings is.
As I skim that it just feels like a pile of shit that does nothing but create a few jobs to make reports. It doesn't bind the management. They can literally go do the same thing tomorrow.
Oh wait... "Gravy Analytics is now part of Unacast!"
Why isn't Unacast a party? Where is the monetary fine?
> At trial, the Backpage defendants were barred from bringing up a 2013 memo by federal prosecutors who examined the site and said at the time that they hadn’t uncovered evidence of a pattern of recklessness toward minors or admissions from key participants that the site was being used for prostitution.
> A Government Accountability Office report released in June noted that the FBI’s ability to identify victims and sex traffickers had decreased significantly after Backpage was seized by the government because law enforcement was familiar with the site and Backpage was generally responsive to requests for information.
Reminds me of a case in Utah of a guy charged with defrauding a bank for doing exactly what the bank told him to do. Couldn't introduce the email of the bank telling him to do that during trial. I'm not sure how anyone is OK with stuff like this.
I was a fly on the wall for a conversation with someone who runs a 12k seat venue. They guaranteed Harry Styles $5 million for 2 nights and made it work because.... "secondary". Even the venues are in on the scalping.
I followed people who post yet when I open the app my first 2 posts (the only posts visible) are from accounts I'd never follow (right now Paris Hilton and ESPN) and could care less about. I don't want to scroll through their suggested bullshit trying to get to what I actually want to read. Maybe this works when you are following no one.
Eh. I was expecting something a bit more juicy like flat out transferring csvs loaded with detailed data or something.
"A proposed FTC settlement with BetterHelp includes $7.8 million for partial refunds for BetterHelp customers and conveys an unmistakable message about just how seriously the FTC takes this kind of betrayal of trust."
Um not really. If anything it conveys your remarketing might cost a bit more then you planned.
I've been on various projects in this building for 20+ years. We even had a small office at one point on one of the floors. Back then we were told the upper floors couldn't be converted to data center space. Fast forward to 2 years ago and everytime I went in there a semi truck full of cabinets was being sent up. I have no idea how much weight it can hold but my gut told me we are a moderate sized earthquake away from the place falling to the ground. Called my provider and said we are moving across the street. 2 months later with the help of some friends we did it in I think 13 minutes.
One cool thing was the filming of fast and furious Tokyo drift out front. They spent probably 2 months converting 2 blocks into Tokyo and at night would swap out street signs with Japanese ones. Turns out they actually do race the cars around the corners. Explosions and everything.
Edit: Also they have spread things out around DTLA and El Segundo and even just recently filled plans to build a second building next door. While it wouldn't be good I don't think if something happened it would melt down the Internet as perhaps it may have 15-20 years ago.
