Coffee Shops
AWS has launched a coffee shop
instead of paying for the whole cup, you pay for each component
the beans are competitively priced for the industry, but they make it up on water and sugar
also if you leave the cafe with your coffee in hand they charge you $130,000
redis has launched a coffee shop
from inside AWS’s coffee shop
so you get the privilege of paying both AWS and redis for the same coffee
although the recipe is just available online for free
cloudflare has launched a coffee shop
you can drink as much coffee as you want for ten dollars a month, which seems like a good deal, but if you start to depend on it they will find you and muscle you into paying tens of thousands of dollars a month
for coffee

solarwinds bought one of my favorite coffee shops, which i hate, and now they’re constantly trying to sell me on more coffee from the other shops they bought
