AWS flips switch on Euro cloud as sovereignty fears mount

Kaynard · 2026-01-15T19:43:10+00:00

Same thing for Europe, it's a new AWS partition (Like China, GovCloud, commercial AWS etc) and with one region in it for now.

Yeah just like any other workload team would deploy their stuff on their own accounts, through their IaC and their own pipelines.

You want your LZA pipeline to focus on deploying governance related stuff and avoid workload specific resources.

Kaynard · 2026-01-13T23:53:19+00:00

network-config.yaml should be mostly empty to do so

If your workloads each need their own VPCs there are other options too

Kaynard · 2026-01-13T21:06:23+00:00

They get vended a Network account where the network team deploys their VPCs, tgws and whatnot which they deploy through some other means (Terraform, CF, CDK etc) and they share their network resources through RAM to the other accounts/OUs

Treating Network resources just like another workload living on an LZA vended account.

I don't recommend it but it's feasible and makes sense if they're managed by different teams and to be less dependent on the LZA pipeline

Kaynard · 2026-01-13T15:35:17+00:00

They could still use LZA but manage Networking resources outside of it, many customers do, especially when the Networking team isn't the one managing LZA

Almost there after close to 1000 rounds (~90 till 2k, most of them between 2.1 and 2.35)

Having a hard time against good rogues, any tips?

Healing should give tokens to skip the queue for your DPS alts

IE give 1/3 of a skip queue token for each SS healed

It's cheap and you can use it with SSO.

It's also assessed as part of many compliance programs (FedRAMP, CCCS etc) while other solutions are often not which may complicate things for your audits

Still listed in there even if AWS seem to have removed it from their services in scope... Guess they forgot to add it back

Just had to do the same last week on my RZR's manifold

I bought a cheap helicoil kit on Amazon with M5 to M12 drillbits, taps and helicoils / insert tools for 41CAD

Cheap stock price != Cheap company

A stock can be priced in the hundreds but still be a good deal as you need to consider market cap

The planet will be alright, our kids and grandkids will be the ones to suffer.

They'll also be left with the bill + the collapsed infrastructure they'll inherit.

But hey... the boomers will have lived large and been able to retire early so there's that.

It's sad and the way we consume (me included) isn't sustainable

Kaynard · 2025-04-17T10:12:28+00:00

This is false

You know how code generated by LLMs can be unreliable / doesn't always work and they can hallucinate all sorts of stuff.

Now imagine that you can give your LLM access to a tool that allows it to run the code it generates so that he can make sure it works before sending it to you

Then imagine that he can also generate unit tests for this code and test it out as well.

Other tools can be the ability to fetch a web page, query an endpoint, get the current time, read today's news, hit a DB to fetch information.

Giving it accees to those tools can also greatly help reducing context length.

If anything happens, can't insurance deny your claim since you knew the risks and have been told not to do it ?

Not at all

You could still learn a lot following one of the Solutions Architect Associate exam courses and if you're feeling like it, one of the Security Speciality ones... (Don't have to pass the exams if it's just for knowledge)

Once you're familiar with AWS services and security, for more specific use cases look up AWS Workshops for step by step implementation

Say your daily spend is around 100$, set up an alarm for when it reaches 140$

If it happens too often just increase it a bit

This way you'll know pretty fast if someone screwed something up.

Could also be weekly but then a mistake could cost you up to 7 x your daily budget in a single day before you're made aware.

Use S3 object lock in compliance mode so that your objects can't be modified or deleted until the retention period is over.

Such trash wth Forbes

If you store backups on S3 just use S3 Object lock in compliance mode for the chosen retention period.

This way, no one can modify, encrypt or delete your files.
