It looks like I can search my AWS resources using the AWS Console Search feature.
I will use this a lot more than the ads from Marketplace in the search results.

This is a great learning experience.
The notebook was configured to authenticate to an AWS environment that I did not even have to provision.

Time to catch up on some AWS blog post I have not had time to read.
I really enjoy seeing other peoples architectures.
Using a file in an S3 bucket as a sentinel for manually failing a Route53 health check to force a region DNS failover is new to me.

Do you think the second line of code is too complex and should be refactored?
I don't think so.
There is some complexity there, we have method chaining with one of the arguments being the result of another method.
However these are all standard library objects and methods so it feels appropriate.

I just wasted 20 minutes evaluating the Microsoft Teams Webinar feature.
I don't know what I expected. Much like for chat, other platforms can be worth the money even if Teams is 'free'.

They look like SCPs, but for resources instead of principals.

I am liking the new timeline view in the AWS Cloudformation console.
I rarely deploy Cloudformation through he console so I do not think it will impact my normal workflow.
Perhaps stubborn deletes due to resource deletion order issues is where this will shine.

How expensive is too expensive for convenience?
It's not a simple answer but @justingarrison.com lays out some thresholds for when you should evaluate what you're getting
$50,000/mo - cheaper infra
$100,000/mo - cheaper labor
$250,000/mo - less complex

I spend so much time working with AWS resources in Terraform and CDK that I rarely poke around the AWS console.
I did not know the Lambda console had this header.

I tried the new AWS Console Lambda editor.(embedded VSCode).
I like it. To be clear, this is not for production. This is for learning and testing. Use source control and a pipeline for that.
I was surprised by the ability to create test events right in the editor.
Limited extension support.

I don't want to spend the time now...
but I also don't want to walk through a one way door and have to start over with my network later...
