SaaS status pages (e.g. Slack status page) should add a "<app> is down for me" button. When 1M people click on it, then maybe there's a problem.

Fun fact, if you know how to use boto3/botocore events, you know how to write AWS CLI customizations/extensions. They use the exact same event system. It's been a while, but IIRC the event system started in the AWS CLI. [1/5]
Hey @awscloud, I found out that boto3 has an entire event system that can be used to do cool things and I wrote about it: loige.co/how-to-send-gzipped…
Now I wonder if events are available for other SDKs, like #ruby or #javascript. Any relevant doc page?

Infrastructure is getting too complex. We need more ppl to say no and fight for simple. Simple is robust, understandable, and easy to troubleshoot.

I heard @awscloud employees got special “nitro” vaccines.
It’s apparently their own custom hyper-Pfizer.
