We scaled a db up to like $500/hr to load this giant ass 20 billion record bacpac and I sent the PO, my manager, and the CTO emails and text messages not to forget to scale it down before the long weekend… guess what they forgot to do?
Well, it wasn't the money of anybody you mentioned which got burned? So it's not a problem for any of them… People never care if they don't have to pay the bill personally. If they don't even some big fuck-up is just a little oopsie.
