I've put a focus on brand new policies shipped by AWS (VersionId = "v1").

Next move: Found a budget running watch. Any recommendations?

Keep moving, folks! 🏃

- Statistics for Strava, a self-hosted (On Synology) container with tons of stats, dashboards, everything well presented, and Private. (See screenshots)
- As a previous NRC (Nike Running Club) user, I wanted to import my history of runs since 2011, and found on Reddit the perfect tool: Claim-NRC.

We need an always-on wearable device for this "assistant" use case. It's most useful when your hands are occupied, like when driving or doing DIY tasks.

My most-used assistant: Perplexity voice mode. What's yours?

We all agree that Alexa, Siri, and Google aren't yet equipped to handle these cases, and, with the rise of LLM, these assistants seem even less intelligent.

All this hard work, simplicity, redundancy, and integrity come at a cost.

Focus your effort on the business value of your product/service, rather than on building everything yourself.

Which OSS surprises you most?

Glacier → Tape Libraries (LTO)
AWS Hyperplane → FreeBSD-based
Lambda/Fargate → Firecracker (fork of Google's crosvm)

Most used languages at AWS are (in this order): Java, C/C++, Rust, Go, then Python.

Friend: Sold. Where do I sign up?

Me: See the first comment.

Me: Two-click connect with a ReadOnly IAM role. After that, it watches 24/7, ships a daily or weekly digest.

Friend: Any proof it saves cash?

Me: Early adopters trim 25-40 % in week one, reduce attack surface, and the carbon footprint drops too.

Me: It shows numbers in different places and services, not answers. unusd auto-maps your whole account (all regions), then pings you: “This instance costs $1.2 K/yr and barely works → kill or resize?”

Friend: Sounds handy. What’s the setup pain?
July 23, 2025 at 2:57 PM
Me: Tons. 30-50 % of cloud spend is “zombie” gear: test EC2s left running, snapshots from 2019, beefy DBs loafing at 5 % CPU, NATGW with zero traffic.

Friend: Doesn’t AWS already show that?
