To everyone who ever said I didn’t “look autistic”, know that I’m constantly running ActLikePeopleExpect.exe in my brain, am not always aware I’m doing it, and it’s eating up at least 50% of my RAM. It’s also the reason for a lot of CPU overheating.

This certainly happened, but I don’t think it was ever “the standard”. The fact that it worked, though, made me stoked 100% of the time. I’ll counter with the fact that when this happens, it almost always worked fine for the user.

Remember way back in the day when the standard for writing Chef recipes was basically "fuck the DSL, we'll write raw Ruby!" ? Before everyone realized maybe that wasn't the best idea? I just saw AWS CDK code for the first time, and boy, things sure do seem familiar

I've never been good at to-do lists - I never remember to actually look at the list, and if I set notifications I often miss or ignore them. Sometimes I just put events in my calendar when I need to do things. Anyone like me & got a better system that actually works for them?

confused about cloud jargon? don't be, it's simple: serverless: app has servers, they're just owned by amazon multi-cloud: app is split over two different amazon accounts microservices: instead of amazon owning one of your big things, they own 100 of your little things (easier!)
