Annoying PayPal Dark Pattern

PayPal has been using this Dark Pattern for over 2 years. The idea of the pattern is to trick the user into applying for a PayPal loan. How does it work? When you initially login into PayPal, there is an interim page that is made exactly for this person to trick you into applying for a PayPal loan. The page loads a button [Proceed to Account Overview] aligned to the right at the middle of the screen.

Fix: AWS CloudFront CreateInvalidation returns the same result

Make sure that CallerReference is a random value. I recommend using a timestamp or UUIDv4. CloudFront uses the value to prevent you from accidentally resubmitting an identical request. Whenever you create a new invalidation request, you must specify a new value for CallerReference. If you make a second invalidation request with the same value for CallerReference, and if the rest of the request is the same, CloudFront doesn’t create a new invalidation request. Instead, CloudFront returns information about the invalidation request that you previously created with the same CallerReference.
