Especially if you know a woman of childbearing age in Texas or other states that have banned abortion. Article by ProPublica.texastribune.orgMore ectopic pregnancy deaths in abortion ban states like TexasAfter Texas banned nearly all abortions, patients have struggled to get ectopic care. More than 300 patients here experienced substantial blood loss in 2023 and 2024, compared to 2018 and 2019. 01910

Kevin Spring @kev507.bsky.social · 12/09/2026I think I misread "who is this for?" IMO Outposts is for organizations who need an AWS region placed where there isn't one today, like in a specific state for gambling regulations, next to a stock exchange, etc. But comes with a lot of downsides to accomplish that. 011
Kevin Spring @kev507.bsky.social · 12/09/2026This thing is mainly for large organizations who would benefit from being their own cloud provider. Not only egress, but paying millions of dollars less for VMs and storage. Simpler and more secure than traditional DIY private clouds because we provide the hw + sw. youtube.com/shorts/AeBqk...youtube.comWhat is Oxide?

Kevin Spring @kev507.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Liquid is the only option at the highest density but it requires plumbing to the rack(vast majority of data centers don’t have it) limiting where compute can be deployed. Also brings leak risks to the equipment. Liquid racks can push facilities towards evaporative cooling that consumes water. 120

Kevin Spring @kev507.bsky.social · 04/06/2026I was partial to the Gen10 design, given the range of HP options, definitely bummed out when I saw the updated Gen11/12 bezel. It also allowed for more personality like with the storage arrays getting green accents. 110

Kevin Spring @kev507.bsky.social · 11/05/2026This is basically the first thing I wanted when I joined Oxide over two years ago. Conventional wisdom says it would cost > $300k for an outside vendor to build plus > $80k/yr to maintain, and wouldn’t look that great.
