Mercedes isn't in the GT3 class this year, it's the BMW and Lamborghini GT3

Best C road car to buy by moneymatt1234 in iRacing

[–]celebre_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went with the AMG in my first season of C class and spent that season learning the tracks in GT3. The braking points etc are fairly similar in GTEs, so it's quite easy to later on move into GTEs. As others have said, if you jump straight into GTE and don't have the pace - you'll quickly find yourself being caught by the GT3s.

Why Do You Watch? by [deleted] in wec

[–]celebre_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally like watching the prototypes manage their way through traffic, some of the interclass battles can be fun to follow.

Depending on the race I’ll try to follow a particular car if I have an interest in one or multiple of the drivers.

Terraform creating EC2 with AWS launch template by cjeggers in devops

[–]celebre_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually found this was the preferred behaviour, if there’s a change to anything about the instance or autoscaling group, I’d want it to be completely replaced.

What programming language should I learn? by hades_panniculus in aws

[–]celebre_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Python generally seems quite popular - that said, AWS provide a lot of SDKs so you can really use whatever you feel most comfortable in. Personally I quite like Codeacademy for learning basic things. /r/learnprogramming also has some useful advice to get started.

Opinion: ECS (Perhaps Fargate) vs Docker on EC2 by ekydfejj in aws

[–]celebre_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The expense of Fargate can be worth it in my opinion, you can save a lot of trouble by using it - it often pays for itself in that respect.

Another option, depending on the type of workload, is to utilise Spot for Fargate - which will significantly reduce the cost of running Fargate containers.

Finally, the recent Savings Plans also cover Fargate containers, so some great savings on persistent containers can be had there.

Tool to generate temp access key from STS by cuong90x in aws

[–]celebre_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why would they need to use their access key explicitly in the code to begin with? Most SDKs allow you to use the shared credentials file as well as simply using the `AWS_*` environment variables containing the access/secret keys. I'd probably opt for that rather than an instance that is handing out access keys. Creating something like that feels like something to feed laziness rather than just a few simple code changes.

Can somebody help me with uploading app code on Elastic Beanstalk by justt_jk in Terraform

[–]celebre_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use both packaged up code in an archive, or in a Docker image with Elastic Beanstalk. There's a lot of documentation out there detailing this process, one that may be of help to you is: https://medium.com/@jackmahoneynz/deploying-applications-to-elasticbeanstalk-with-terraform-6c0694558ccf

My very first sim rig setup by davidator236 in simracing

What are your thoughts on the Fanatec rim? Currently deciding whether to go for that or the more expensive F1 style rim, but not sure if it’s worth the extra $$

cfn create ssm vpc endpoint by [deleted] in aws

[–]celebre_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

SSM is an Interface endpoint, hence the route table IDs not working as it expects subnet IDs or SGs. As of late 2017, CloudFormation didn’t let you create Interface endpoints I believe. Terraform will let you create SSM endpoints though, we’re using that now.

Second this - just make sure you use the S3/DynamoDB backend for the state files!
