Maybe they're only rolling it out for some users. I got it too and it was updated through some kind of internal update manager, not through the app store. Deleted my browsing history as well.
Sorry if this is somewhat unrelated to the main thread, but considering that someone working on Fly.io is here, I wanted to ask some questions that I couldn't find the answers to in your documentation.
1. What's the average cold start time when spinning up a new instance? For comparison, AWS Fargate often has cold starts of around 1 minute.
2. Is there a limit on the container size created by the Dockerfile?
3. Is there a limit on the number of concurrent instances a single user can run?
Does anybody know whether this will remove the current maximum runtime limitation? As far as I can tell, workers have a maximum duration of 10ms on the free plan and 50ms on the paid one.
I would assume that it does, considering that it's being compared to AWS Lambda, which has a timeout of 15 minutes.
I can't really help you, but I just wanted to say that I've also felt the same way for a few months now. I'm not really in the same situation, but just seeing people make these outrageous amounts of money has been pretty depressing.
What really gets me, apart from people like Bezos (like you've mentioned), is that there are literally children making multiples of a doctor's salary by peddling products to even younger children on social media. I guess it's always been similar, considering that child stars have existed for a long time, but there's just something so disheartening thinking about those people making these sums, while others work jobs that are central to our communities and earn a fraction of that.
At this point, I'm at the stage where I'm just trying to start as many projects as possible in my free time and just see what sticks, because frankly, I now believe that people's success is entirely driven by being in the right market at the right time, so you might as well maximize your chances.
