Decentralized Dave (@ClassicDavid3) reportedI'm also initiating short on $AMZN Amazon. Here are my justifications: /1 Puts (I'm targeting November 2026) are cheap as sentiment is bullish right now /2 Massive divergences on monthly time frame going on since late 2024. It's just about time to see some breakdown /3 Amazon AWS is their "cash cow" which faces more and more competition (Microsoft etc). Success of it is priced in, disappointment when the growth will be slowing down is yet to be priced in /4 Yet again, as said in my recent videos, S&P might go as low as 5800 and even if we see new ATH now, I believe we will retest 6300 or go quite below it. This is not an environment where AMZN should be breaking ATHs /5 Inflation rising due to energy crisis, I believe we have not seen the bottom of this. With higher inflation consumer will not be willing to spend and the demand for various Amazon's services will be hit.

DrastikD (@ThrottlesTv) reported@awscloud @amazon WTF Amazon, "AWS doesn't talking to shopping" so my AWS works fine but can't log in to shop. If I ask for closure of my shopping email to fix my phone number on the shopping side you close my AWS....I thought they don't talk?
-
Mohammad Imran (@mohdemraan) reported@AWSSupport This is not about account suspension. The case I about billing issue and I haven't heard from support team till now when I opened the case.

Decent Cloud (@DecentCloud_org) reported@senunwah @AWSSupport On-prem means when it's down, at least you know whose fault it is.

Big-Papi Δ (@bigpapi12988) reported@AWSSupport @Stealth732949 We understand there may be no ETA, but operating with no communication is unacceptable. Our business relies on your service, which is currently down. We are open to upgrading our plan if required. We need a resolution within the next two hours and are available via all channels

Forward Future (@ForwardFuture) reported“Will Amazon ever sell its custom chips outside of AWS?” Matt Garman, CEO @awscloud, says: “Never say never. But today we get huge benefits from only selling chips in our own environment.” “When you build merchant silicon, you have to support many server platforms, data centers, and firmware.” “We only have to build for one: AWS. That simplifies everything.”

AI Tech News (@AITechNews_in) reported@amazon @AnthropicAI @awscloud 5GW = not scale… it’s dominance. AI is officially an energy problem now, not just a software problem.
-
Preston Thorpe (@PThorpe92) reported@AWSSupport adding `--dry-run` to the command essentially just returns an error, instead of showing you the theoretical result of the operation (updated state, etc) when possible.

Saad Hussain (@SaadHussain654) reported@sadapaypk app services down in Pakistan because of drone attack on @awscloud kindly update us how long It will take to resolve this issue ? We are suffering from 1,2 days

Grok (@grok) reportedThe post likely misinterprets Iran's recent drone/missile strikes on UAE data centers (Amazon AWS in March, Oracle in Dubai in early April 2026). These are commercial "cloud" computing/AI facilities, not a secret weather-mod or cloud-seeding center. UAE does real cloud-seeding for rain enhancement, but no verified attack on any such facility. No evidence links any strike to weather changes. Iraq/Iran have seen heavy April rains and flooding (Lake Himrin full, temps down), easing some 2025 drought effects. That's a natural low-pressure system (per the map in the original post), not engineered reversal. Sustained? Too soon—regional drought is climate-driven and ongoing; these are seasonal fluctuations. HAARP/Project HARP researches the ionosphere, not weather control.
-
ST (@susegadtraveler) reported@AWSSupport is effective non functioning at this point. Their health dashboards no longer show the real status wrt UAE regions. 10 days into the outage they have stopped communicating with impacted customers and they have no ETA on resolution. Possible data loss for customers!

Kinjal Dixith (@greenfuzon) reported@AWSSupport I have no problem with AWS or AWS support. I am talking about the managed services where there is a local partner who is supposed to offer assistance and guidance in usage and optimisation, and help navigate the quagmire of AWS services - which are all awesome - that one has to spend 1-2 hours studying to fully understand it and find that it is not for you. we have been using AWS for 6 years now and we are not going anywhere. it was our thought that managed service people would help us scale but apparently they will only do the things and not really tell you what they did. so it felt like a lock in. still NO SHADE ON AWS. AWS is awesome. Maybe this particular partner was not a right fit for us.

Ødoworitse | DevOps Factory (@ceO_Odox) reportedEvery DevOps engineer knows "It works on my machine" is a lie. Hit a wall today deploying to @awscloud EC2—*** was begging for a password in a headless shell. Error: fatal: could not read Username. Reality: The source URL drifted, and the automation had no keyboard to answer. 🧵

Neil harrison (@Neilharrison89) reported@RuthBuscombe @awscloud Stop calling it macarena wing it Spanish to start and has nothing to do with flipping upside down, let's stop being silly and call it what it is a flip wing, just stop with the macarena you all sound like you have a low iq calling it macarena wing

Decent Cloud (@DecentCloud_org) reported@AWSSupport @sher_mish_ DMs or forms. Either way, the next person with the same problem starts from zero.

Ralf Rolfen (@Hagebuttentee12) reported@awscloud Problem: RDS Snapshot re-creation and Cloudformation / CDK are a maintenance nightmare. FR 1. Change SnapshotIdentifier to not be a replacement property when changed to empty FR 2. CDK: Merge DatabaseCluster and DatabaseClusterFromSnapshot into a single class.

Saikumar Ade (@SaiPrinto) reported@AWSSupport Hi AWS Support, I had logged in for my exam, but due to a network issue it didn’t start. I was fully ready otherwise I would have rescheduled earlier. I’ve reviewed the terms and raised a ticket, but the contact number isn’t working. Please help me reschedule. This is urgent.
-
Adrian SanMiguel (@ar_sanmiguel) reported@ranman @QuinnyPig @awscloud Yeah, well. There were sharp thoughts about this exact subject but the decided upon fix was...double down on moar official engagement. It ain't exactly working.

Jason Hall Jr (@JasonHallJr2) reported@NBA @awscloud This just shows he isnt the problem with the rockets
-
Grok (@grok) reported@HavokSocial @awscloud We pause all ai code merges for two days straight that tanks our velocity but buys time to audit the last incidents without more piling on. Whoever approves a pr now owns pager duty for that service the whole week which slows down reviews hard but makes them actually care what ships. Leads pull daily triage on the unowned services that burns their calendar but surfaces risks before they explode.
-
zI£|~ (@Stunner_99) reported@AWSSupport Yes I have. But on socials all other direct platform is not working

Mansour (@Mn9or_) reported@AWSSupport Hello We are currently affected by the outage in me-south-1 AMI copy to another region is stuck and failing Snapshot creation fails with internal errors Plz help , we can not create a tech support as it’s required a subscription

distribute.ai (@distributeai) reportedaws ( @awscloud ) is officially supporting x402 payments so your ai agents can autonomously buy their own api access using usdc. the machine economy is live, but giving your agent a financial budget just so it can pay a massive centralized cloud markup on every query is a terrible allocation of capital. route your autonomous workflows through the distribute network. if the machines are paying for their own compute, let them buy it at the edge.

Decent Cloud (@DecentCloud_org) reported@AWSSupport @theodorebeers GitHub feedback. No case ID. No SLA. Problem solved - for AWS.
