Try Sublime Text, it has a VI mode that helps the move.


Fortunately the Opsworks service wasn't able to contact EC2 API so although it attempted to terminate the servers, the termination call failed so the instances are still alive and functioning but there is now a disconnect between Opsworks and EC2


We are getting errors across multiple AWS API's. It's nothing to do with Opsworks itself, rather it appears like there is an internal networking issue.

Both SQS and SNS were erroring and now SQS has gone down completly with all requests timing out.


Looks like there's critical infrastructure in us-east-1 that's broken and causing a ripple effect across all of AWS

Our platform is entirely hosted in ap-southeast-2 but we've had our EC2 instances deregistered and OpsWorks reporting them terminated where EC2 is showing them active and they're still reachable via SSH


Yeah, we don't use OpsWorks and had SQS/SNS/SES trouble as well -- thankfully those are not used to serve production traffic. From the set of services affected, it looks like Amazon's internal Kafka-like pub/sub system went down.


CAn confirm we are also experiencing massive issues, took AWS about an hour to update status page. Attempted to file support ticket and that timed out, when the request finished it had created 10 duplicated tickets and still waiting on the phone call from AWS RE ticket.


All of our opsworks instances are currently being shut down, we have already had 20 servers automatically terminated...

There goes the weekend!!

I wrote this little simulator to help a friend in college who was stuck with his thesis. It simulates the output of a mine based on the distances required for trucks to travel and each location and trucks capacity.


To mitigate this, simply bind to the "touchmove" and "touchstart" events as well.


Wouldn't that bind the functionality to user interaction beyond just scrolling?

Analytics shows us that this minor issue with iPads is of little concern. But at least I now have a suggestion for a solution if someone decides it's a big enough deal. Thanks for the tip.


Awesome, wish it was around a month or two ago when I was getting my bike! Never knew there were so many different bikes I could ride on my L plates...


I doubt they strictly enforce this. It's most likely there so they have the power to have links removed if they think it is hurting their rep.


Hey mate,

There is already a app level loyalty system which tracks coffees ordered and will automatically give the user a free item when they have purchased 10 items :).

I definitely want to take this national shortly.

The way it works is by recharging your account with credit so that the fees are only incurred once on a 10-20$ transaction.

Thanks for the support! Hopefully I can get it off the ground :P
