How the fuck did people tolerate this service when getting charged for fucking 403 errors?

@errer @pro_grammer

I believe that the trick is not to show the developers the bill.

Let the developers all tell each other "it's cheap because you don't have to buy the servers; you only pay for what you use!"

Only managers see the real price.

I haven't had access to the AWS bill in 4 of 5 companies that I've worked at. Why? Fuck if I knew, but I got vague answers like security and compliance when I asked.

I wonder how many thousands could have been saved if all devs could see what they're actually paying for but not using.

They will don't care, not their money, not their job. Can't blame them
