提供幾個數字做為參考,首先是文章提到的:
Ultimately, Slack was ripe for the taking. Entering 2020 it had lost around 40% of its value since it went public. Consider that after its most recent earnings report, the company lost 16% of its value, and before the Salesforce deal leaked, the company was worth only a few dollars per share more than its direct listing reference price. Toss in net losses of $147.6 million during the two quarters ending July 31, 2020, Slack’s uninspiring public valuation and its winding path to profitability and it was a sitting target for a takeover like this one. The only surprise here is the price.
Slack’s current valuation, according to both Yahoo and Google Finance, is just over $25 billion, which, given its very modest price change after-hours means that the market priced the company somewhat effectively. Slack is up around 48% from its valuation that preceded the deal becoming known.
而 2016 年有新聞說微軟將 Slack 視為價值高達 80 億美元的潛在收購目標。1
AWS 的思維一值是 scalability > consistency。
先前是 us region 維持最初的 eventually consistent,其他新的 region 支援 read-after-write consistent。
這次 upgrade 應該是除了 read-after-write,其他操作, e.g., list, ACL 也變成 strong consistent
還沒細看條文,感覺應該還有但書,要不然 "Amazon S3 delivers strong read-after-write consistency" 中間就不會有 "read-after-write"
聽到這個嚇一跳,S3 不是一直都是 strong 嗎?
看回應是說 us region 的一直都是 eventually consistent,其他比較新的 region 很早就是 strong 了。
我都用新加坡或日本所以一直都無感…
kotlin 1.3.x ~ 1.4.10 IDE plugin 有很嚴重的效能問題,遇到的快升級吧!
公司開發用的 mac 很慢,會放大這個 bug,compile 一個大檔要卡 30 秒,超級崩潰。
還好 1.4.20RC 之後就修好了。
