I use Amplify for a mobile app that I created and maintain just because I'm not familiar with backend technologies and it seemed like the quickest and easiest option for me, a mobile developer. The app isn't super complex, but I wouldn't describe it as a "toy" application either. I haven't run into any major headaches with DynamoDB or GraphQL limitations... yet.
But this article has me thinking about exploring other options. To try to get ahead of the seemingly inevitable wave of tech debt. Does anyone have advice or can point to any resources for embarking on that particular journey? Are there similar technologies that do it better than Amplify? Anything in between Amplify and learning all the disparate AWS tools from scratch?
Why do you say that? In my comment I'm rooting for you. I did say that you should have mentioned this is a counter-suit to your own suit, and I stand by that. Why omit that information? Or is that a misunderstanding?
Thanks for sharing this. It looks like Impossible X (the defendant) was the first to sue to have Impossible Foods cease using their logo and trademark. And now Impossible Foods isn't budging and asserting their weight through counter-suit. It still feels very unfair even though the small guy started it; he's trying to protect his brand. He has supplied actual cases of confusion between the two companies according to this filing.
He should have definitely included that information in this blog post though. It's more than a little misleading.
How is this the top comment? It does nothing to move the discourse forward. You are trying to slam the brakes by homing in on some tricky terminology. I wish this kind of comment would get downvoted into oblivion anytime the topic of a wealth tax comes up, whether or not you agree with it.
The difficulty you are having in parsing out the comparison here is because the comparison is difficult to make (and possibly you are just trolling). How would you word this sentence to make it more clear? It is clear from the rest of the document that what is being compared is not the "wealth tax" on families, because as you said we don't have wealth taxes.
The comparison is what percentage of wealth do families already give to the government through taxes in general. Nowhere does it mention an existing "wealth tax". Most middle-class families build their wealth from a paycheck, while ultra-rich families can do so through other means that aren't taxed. Whether or not you agree that a wealth tax would be of benefit here, it's hard to argue against that point. And that is what your referenced quote is trying to elucidate.
