Effective August 1, 2025, AWS will standardize billing for the initialization (INIT) phase across all AWS Lambda function configurations. This change specifically affects on-demand invocations of Lambda functions packaged as ZIP files that use managed runtimes, for which the INIT phase duration was previously unbilled. This update standardizes billing of the INIT phase across all runtime types, deployment packages, and invocation modes. In this post, we discuss the Lambda Function Lifecycle a...| Amazon Web Services
Discussions around memory safety often focus on choice of language, and how the language can provide memory safety guarantees. Unfortunately, choosing a language is a decision made at the start of a project. Migrating an existing C or C++ project to a safer language is much harder than starting a new project in a safe language1. I’m not going to say this is impossible, or that you can’t or shouldn’t migrate existing programs to safer languages. And sometimes people just do things in ope...| David Adrian
