Perhaps your supposedly unique work is more repetitive than you thought: it just has a decision tree that's difficult to model with a regular algorithm, and annoyingly, it turns out you can just brute force that decision tree if you have enough electricity.

Unless your job is cutting-edge research where you are truly making new scientific discoveries and methods, you're just combining other peoples' ideas into a new unique package and selling it.

The truly valuable work is to notice that there is an underserved market and figure out how to meet their needs.

Which region? I've been using it consistently all day in Ireland and London. I just tried some USA endpoints and it seems to work fine also.

Baking something like that into hardware is probably not a good idea because then you can't update it when vulnerabilities are found.

I guess you could have the SNS topic invoke a lambda that shuts down the specific service if you wanted that but I agree a budgets feature would be nice, especially when provisioning test accounts for developers.
