Q: How do I pre-pay for my AWS Elastic Beanstalk's EC2 instances?

I understand that I can reduce my AWS hosting costs by using "reserved EC2 instances", and the process of acquiring reserved instances seems straightforward enough. However, it isn't clear to me how to use these reserved instances in my existing Elastic Beanstalk applications. Once I have reserv...

close?

I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it is not programming related, and rather best answered by some form of official AWS support. — Bart 14 secs ago

@Bart Thanks. Agree.

Why would Stack Exchange bot randomly create a room for a site that has existed for more than four years?

Bart

It got lonely and wanted to talk?

Jan Dvorak

Somebody tried to enter a non-existent room?

user259867

@JanDvorak What does this mean? Who would be that somebody?

user259867

Also, I only now noticed SE chat bot's userId is -2. It's older than Community.

Bart

@PatrickHofman do you get the OP's comments?

Jan Dvorak

I mean, if you click a "chat" link from a site that doesn't have a room, what should happen?

user259867

But Math had its room (no.36) for ages.

Jan Dvorak

Someone created a room, then got ťheir account deleted?

user259867

Interesting idea, but doesn't explain the boilerplate message. That message isn't there for user-created rooms.

user259867

But I should try creating a room and getting my account deleted, to be sure.

Bart

Don't just ask for it to be deleted though. Do something terrible.

Jan Dvorak

For a user with nontrivial rep, that results in long-term suspension, not deletion.

Bart

@Fundamental where is your "can do" attitude?

Patrick Hofman

@Bart No. Sorry.

Bart

@PatrickHofman meh, let's see when he asks his new question. Seems to be adamant that it's programming related.

Patrick Hofman

@Bart Indeed. Let's see.

Someone should warn him about the q-ban

Oh, I see. That room has host = chat.math.stackexchange.com instead of host = math.stackexchange.com. So it's the only room for that host, hence never freezes. Anyone wants to be the first to create a room with host chat.stackoverflow.com? None exist yet

@Fundamental !!!!!!
