Northern Africa has a huge opportunity here - build infra that produces hydrogen gas year round, and then export it to Europe. The Sahara Desert is 8_600_000 km², which I imagine is _very sunny_ all year round.

Do you really think he stayed at the YMCA for any other reason than "he wanted to"?

He comes from money, and would have had no problem living anywhere he liked.

Just read his wikipedia page:

In 1995, Musk, his brother Kimbal, and Greg Kouri founded web software company Zip2 with funds borrowed from Musk's father.

If the YMCA story is supposed to signify "rags", then it's a carefully constructed image and nothing else.

Hi Seth - I am a LONG time lurker here on HN, but this news just forced me to create an account.

I am part of a small company which has separated our deployment into a number of sub projects, some of which are: dev, staging, production, ci, etc.

The difference for us will be several hundred dollars per month, and that will make an actual (negative) difference for us. We didn't need a "financially backed SLA" before and we don't need it now.

You asked for a question and here it is: Why isn't a financially backed SLA a part of a billing negotiation? I mean, there are some really cool features in "Anthos" but I am not picking up a phone to find out how much that is going to cost.

If a really useful feature like "Cloud Run for GKE" is awkwardly placed in the "Anthos" box, then why isn't the SLA part of "Anthos" too?

Free clusters was a huge part of why we selected GCP. If this SLA nonsense isn't made optional, our next project is not landing on GCP.
