Smart mattress not so smart: Unusable without AWS

Bent and too hot: Exorbitantly priced mattresses have no offline mode. When Amazon Web Services go offline, mattress owners can no longer sleep.

@paulfoerster Smart mattresses are like smart watches, i.e. essential. They vibrate each time important information arrives, e.g.
- that the DJI has gone up or down by 2%
- that the latest Taylor Swift album has broken the 200,000 mark
- a famous sports star has just retired
- Elon Musk's fortune has just dropped by $100,000 following Tesla revelations
-Donald Trump has broken wind
and so forth.
These key updates need AWs if they are to be timely.
