I cancelled a streaming service, and set up a $10 monthly donation to Signal instead. Thanks for the reminder, @kelseyhightower.com

Just four Tool shows in a row. I would be a husk of a human being afterward.

Office Hours Bring your questions and horrifying AWS bills to this interactive session.

On the Duckbill Office Hours (duckbillgroup.com/officehours) and called the new Amazon Quick Suite thing "QuickSlap."

It's the new Infinidash.

The room was packed, but it was also made to seat 8, so let's not oversell it. 🀣

I think I'm going to record a couple YT videos of the AWS and networking lessons I shared, just for posterity.

AWS is really leaning into the ECS everywhere strategy. Now ECR runs in your on-prem bathrooms.

Stay warm, my friend. We have decided to cancel all plans today.

Discord is where you go to sell scammy courses.

There are legit discord communities, but Slack is probably more likely to be used by CTOs already.

This is how we hike when the temperature hurts our face. We found a (not so) secret path around Bunker Lake.

"I can do DevOps, but I shouldn't have to. It makes a more efficient team to have a dedicated DevOps engineer and not burden your feature engineers with that additional effort."

It really doesn't, y'know. They become a bottleneck and your important "feature work" ends up sitting in a queue.

I feel like I'm casting a water spell just to rinse the soap off my hands.

I think I saw that you have to report the post first, and then a block option is in there.

I will be returning worse, as punishment for forcing me to return to work.

Last day of vacation.
Did I do the things I set out to do? No.
Do I feel rested? Somehow also no.

I also intended to go to bed early, but then played Hollow Knight for 4 hours. Now I feel like I was out partying.

Sounds like time well spent. 😁

You know Bluesky has reached critical mass when you see the screenshots appear on other social apps.

We need new Christmas music. Retail has destroyed my ability to enjoy any of it.
