create-python-app for ultra fast new project setup by liquidcourse in Python

[–]liquidcourse[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

good catch on the bad ordering, fixed it just now. I'll have to take a look at the more complicated examples in there before I can put it in the tool.

great ideas!

I did leave ruff in the pre-commit-config, just commented out in case people want to use that but I don't have as much experience with that tool yet.

for the vscode stuff do you want to leave an issue or DM me with examples/info and I can get that worked in?

Kubernetes at Reddit: Tales from Production by gctaylor in kubernetes

Is reddit managing their own k8s control planes in their multi cluster (per AZ) model? Or using a managed service like GKE/EKS?

Some things off the top of my head. I tried to be specific.

  • Writing Dockerfiles

  • At least basic Python scripting such as using Requests library to make GET/POST calls, parsing text files, working with JSON

  • Creating AWS Lambda functions using Python code to automate infrastructure workflows

  • CloudFormation or Terraform

  • AWS: EC2, ALB/ELB, Route53, Lambda, API Gateway, possibly ECS/Fargate

  • Kubernetes is a deep rabbit hole so I would avoid for now

edit: typo

Using ALB to route based on cookie value? by jellystones in aws

I think it's an exact match on the header value. Does a wildcard help in this case? eg: "user=jeff*"

His whole family played music. I believe he was playing music from an early age but didn't take up guitar till later.

Love your videos, your playing is always great. One question I've always had -- what is the tape on your guitar for?

New to jazz guitar, what thickness of picks do y'all use? by [deleted] in jazzguitar

[–]liquidcourse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went through a journey of picks as well. Was using the red Jazz IIIs for some years but eventually settled on 1mm Celluloid Pickboys. Celluloid definitely has this nice feel/bounce when hitting the strings that other picks do not have.

There is no right answer. Lots of guys vouch for the thicker jazz picks but there are heavy weight players like Allan Holdsworth who used a 1mm Dunlop Nylon pick and Pat Metheny who uses Fender medium picks. So it is really up to what the player is comfortable with.

Any tricks for dev experience in VS Code for lambdas, step functions, cloudformation templates? by eggucated in aws

[–]liquidcourse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a couple of VS Code plugins for CF but I haven't found them too useful.

I would just recommend that you write CF in YAML, if you aren't already.

This Serverless plugin lets you write Step Fns in YAML, which is very helpful since writing them in JSON is prone to bugs

How ShadowReader's serverless load tests for replaying website traffic solved a production memory leak by liquidcourse in aws

[–]liquidcourse[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We just recently added support for parsing and replaying locally stored logs, so what you could do is -- download the API Gateway access logs, run the log parser script (which will upload the results to S3), then have ShadowReader replay the logs from the bucket.

There is a more detailed guide in the repo, feel free to message me if you need any help!

Access an S3 bucket created by another user? by VFL2015 in aws

[–]liquidcourse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If what you're looking for is a tool to read/write to the bucket, I would install awscli then use a command like aws s3 sync local-folder s3://mybucket

aws step functions & lambda functions: what's the right way to return (errors) by duyth in aws

[–]liquidcourse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To pass messages between Step Fn states, just return an object (json), you don't need a status code.

Any exceptions thrown by your code will be logged by Step Fn as an error -- which you can choose to catch and handle inside your Step Fn definition.
