What changed? Fifteen days ago I renewed the domain for 9 years. There was no notice that whois details need to be reverified. Logging into the console shows no screaming notification, or even a quiet one.
Toggling whoisguard off and updating contact info appears to have fixed it, but I'm extraordinarily hesitant to trust @namecheap with anything revenue generating going forth.
The verification email that they swore was sent (to another domain) never arrives, even in spam. Is g-suite / gmail eating namecheap verification emails?
Thankfully this is just, y'know. My personal email address.
I'll be transferring all remaining domains to Route 53 presently. Because YIKES.

And so I begin the Late Night AWS #requinnvent tweet thread: Corey Quinn's own version of AWS's own version of Cloud Next.
To make it more like the #reinvent I gave my kid $20, watered down my drink, and spent the last 3 hours standing in line outside my home office yelling.
(These will be aggregated among some other things at requinnvent.com.)
The #reinvent livestream is up, playing music reminiscent of that time I tried to give my dial-up modem a bath.
The first #reinvent launch is in a bit under 4 hours, and with it the start of #reQuinnvent.
Let's get in the mood by reading @Gartner_inc's MQ for Cloud Database Management Systems.
A thread!
If we look at the axis labels, @awscloud's ability to execute is unmatched but their vision trails that of some other companies like @GCPcloud, @OracleCloud, and @IBMcloud.
*spit-takes in Gartner*
Wait, what?!
Okay, @awscloud's strengths make sense to me--but I'll call them out if they start marketing on that "more reliable than other clouds" point too heavily.
You don't market on other people's downtime, for tomorrow it may be yours instead. Or perhaps last week's.
We start with @Puppetize shipping its sales culture. Why do companies need to know what state you're in? So the right sales rep gets your lead obviously.
The cover is evocative: a hipster dude who blue himself on top of a container, a Black woman with severe jaundice, and a woman who desperately needs to invest in a seating arrangement that's less likely to kill her.
Since @cleancredit700 are in fact the biggest pieces of shit in our solar system, a thread on how to actually repair your credit without giving money to these predatory fucks.
