Grokipedia is entirely dependent on the whims of Elon Musk. It completely deadnames and misgender Chelsea Manning despite not doing so for other prominent trans people. It has no article for Vivian Wilson despite her having a Wikipedia page.

When Alpha School opened a campus in Brownsville, Texas, some local families were captivated. In its software-driven classrooms, Alpha promised to create self-motivated learners who didn’t need instructors to “spoon feed” them knowledge.

What caused the AWS outage that felt like it took down half the internet on Monday?
It started with a race condition in DynamoDB's DNS propagation, which ended up setting the dynamod.us-east-1.amazonaws.com DNS to empty.
