spent all week procrastinating on a work task because it involves an extremely complex system that i’ve somehow mostly avoided and when i finally forced myself to start it this afternoon, i was done 30 minutes later 🙃
there’s a bar near me that i love but they play loud music and have bad acoustics; i finally came with my airpods and put them in transparency mode and it’s a fucking game changer
there’s just nothing quite like the thrill of SSHing directly into prod so you can manually run a DELETE command
Automatically migrate your on-call setup to Signals
A couple of my teammates wrote a really great migration tool that’ll take your on-call setup in PagerDuty/OpsGenie/etc. and use it to generate Terraform configuration for the closest equivalent in our own alerting/on-call product, Signals. And it’s open source! 🤩

BREAKING NEWS: Congress amends stipulations of proposed TikTok ban. TikTok may remain in US app stores if they change their algorithms to make it so we don’t have to scroll past four to six ads, sponsored/commissioned posts, or live videos for every one normal post.

100% agree with this (although i do get around that last bit by just writing perfect code with zero bugs 😌)

i opened a GitHub issue on Brogue (a modern version of the game Rogue) and it’s the only good issue i’ve ever opened
![A GitHub issue titled "[Opinion] Eels shouldn't be able to open doors". The body reads "Eels don't have a form factor that supports opening doors when you really think about it. Unless the doors are opening on their own (magically…?) shouldn't eels get trapped behind doors?"
7 hours later, a repository collaborator named zenzombie leaves a comment: "Brogue doors are designed for inclusive monster accessibility, without regard to form factor."
Then, 13 hours after that, I leave a final comment before closing the issue: "Fair enough! Hard to be mad about the little eel holes at the bottom of all the doors when they're in the name of accessibility."](https://cdn.davidcel.is/blog/1786061925873910272.webp)

How an empty S3 bucket can make your AWS bill explode
Lesson 1: Anyone who knows the name of any of your S3 buckets can ramp up your AWS bill as they like.

I’m absolutely flabbergasted that this is okay. How is this okay???
