  - Deploy containerized apps to your own AWS account with minimal config!
  - CLI tool with instant console sessions
  - Set up SQL/Redis instantly with Heroku-like add-ons.
  - For enterprise: Autoscaling, preview apps, audit trail, release approvals.

I worked in a DC that had multiple redundant chillers on the roof, and multiple redundant coolers on each floor, but the whole building's cooling failed at once when the water lines failed somehow.

They didn't say how, but apparently the pipes between each floor and the roof were not redundant. It took almost 24 hours to fix.

Or..? A golden era for people who want to think of new things and test out their ideas quickly by having AI code it up.

Deploy to your own AWS account with minimal config!

  - Any containerized app, uses Fargate (no Kubernetes)
  - Heroku-like CLI tool with instant console sessions
  - Set up SQL/Redis instantly with Heroku-like add-ons.
  - Autoscaling, preview apps, audit trail, release approvals.

Every piece of progress looks like this to begin with.

We did this at Chargify, but with MySQL. If Redis was unavailable, it would dump the job as a JSON blob to a mysql table. A cron job would periodically clean it out by re-enqueuing jobs, and it worked well.

This is made possible because Elastic gained a write-ahead log that actually syncs to disk after each write, like Postgres.

I came to a similar conclusion. What about measuring enjoyment? Turns out people enjoy meetings more than work!

I'm surprised that we're circling back to banning things being the answer, when we (the Internet) know that doesn't work long-term.

It seems nice at face value, so it appeases everyone, while being an overly blunt tool used as a political weapon, etc.
