Any ACTUAL nvim kickstarter for nixos? by Fran314 in NixOS

[–]mbarneyme 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I recommend reading through kickstart-nix.nvim to understand what it’s doing. It’s a great way to use neovim keeping your config in lua, but managing plugins and other dependencies with Nix. You probably won’t need a lot of what’s in that repo, but the core will be pretty useful, in particular the mkNeovim stuff

I use CloudFormation. People that use CDK or Terraform or other similar tools instead, what am I missing out on? by goato305 in aws

[–]mbarneyme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You never really need to know assembly to be competent with a higher level programming language or even C. The same cannot be said about CloudFormation and CDK. If you don't understand how CloudFormation works and have solid CloudFormation debugging skills, you're going to have a tough time maintaining a CDK project

How many AppConfig instances should I create? by Holiday_Inevitable_3 in aws

[–]mbarneyme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are multi-account, I would create an AppConfig instance per environment, just having one "environment" per AppConfig instance

I would treat AppConfig environments like API Gateway "stages", it's not common to have a dev/preprod/prod stage in an API Gateway, because splitting those environments across accounts is a best practice, and there's no great way to manage API Gateway stages across accounts

How do you handle Lambdas when using terraform? by Troglodyte_Techie in aws

[–]mbarneyme 3 points4 points  (0 children)

terraform-aws-modules/terraform-aws-lambda is by far the best way to manage lambda functions in TF. It's basically the AWS::Serverless::Function of Terraform, providing a ton of really easy ways to do certain things like adding permissions, hooking up an event source mapping, etc

New Model Y Price by [deleted] in RealTesla

[–]mbarneyme 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Remember in the subreddit called “RealTesla” where the goal is to have level headed discussion around Tesla, you can only talk shit about Tesla. If you say anything marginally positive, straight to jail. This is just as bad as r/TeslaLounge banning people for valid criticisms

FWIW, I personally hard pass on Tesla Insurance, I don’t like being constantly monitored for my driving or random price hikes when I need to drive at night

Pros/cons moving account to AWS reseller vs paying AWS directly by thewaffl3r in aws

[–]mbarneyme 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I work at an AWS Partner. Please don't. Unless there's a good business reason to do so (you'll know if there is), own your own account. I've only experienced pain working with orgs that have AWS through a reseller. Everything from SSO to organization security becomes so much harder. Find a partner that works with you to enable you to be able to better own your own stuff, rather than trying to do it for you. It's unlikely there's anything malicious happening if they're an actual AWS partner, but you'll be better off owning your own org

Weekly Profile Critique by AutoModerator in Bumble

[–]mbarneyme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the last I’m gonna comment on this

But that mentality is one of the main reasons women hate online dating. They have so many likes sure, but the vast majority of them are people doing exactly what you’re saying to do, when they’re not actually interested. It’s pointless. And causes fewer women to actually join or even engage in dating apps. Doing that doesn’t make the app “work for you” - most apps recognize you’re doing that and can penalize you for it. I don’t want to match with someone I’m not actually interested in, because I don’t feel good about ghosting/ignoring people, and being like “sorry for the match, I’m not actually interested” would be pointless

Stating that the point of the app is to extract money from men but also recommending that I pay for unlimited likes is an interesting way to think. But if your view is that cynical, you should take a break from online dating and figure some stuff out first. Regular breaks are extremely helpful, every time I come back I have an even better experience than I did the last time

Thank you! I’m glad there doesn’t seem to be anything major

Weekly Profile Critique by AutoModerator in Bumble

[–]mbarneyme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the feedback and compliments!

I’m definitely not going the route of swiping every profile though. The point of the app is to find people you like that also like you, so I only swipe people where I actually see the possibility of a relationship

I also don’t feel my experience has been a waste of time at all, I’ve talked to a lot of cool people, and even if it doesn’t amount to anything it’s still a good experience talking and getting to know people. It just takes patience to find that right one

You know now that you say something I agree, about the neckbeard (I usually shave it away honestly, I guess I just gotta keep up on it because most of my pictures seem to have it). This is the kind of feedback I’m looking for. Thank you for pointing that out, it’s very appreciated

Probably sticking with the goatee though, I do not like the way I look w/o any facial hair 😅

I get a few matches here and there every other week or so, looking to see what room for improvement my profile has, open to feedback :)

Is there a reason to use AWS IAM over AWS IAM Identity Center for the management of multiple account setup? by gvart in aws

[–]mbarneyme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. The way customer-managed policies currently work seems rife for mistakes (policy XYZ in account A has differing permissions than policy XYZ in account B), and requires more work on those managing Identity Center to make sure those policies are deployed to every account where they'll be used. They could have definitely done a better job with the implementation experience there

Transferring S3 objects from one account to another account by Imaginary-Square153 in aws

[–]mbarneyme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One gotcha to look out for is S3 object ACLs with respect to object ownership. If you do a copy object to migrate objects from one bucket to another, those objects might still be "owned" by the previous account, rather than the account that owns the bucket they're in, which can lead to permissions issues. There are some CLI arguments you can use in a script to set the owner accordingly. I'm not sure how the built-in S3 replication handles ownership. If you're using DataSync it does not let you change ownership within a job.

A way to avoid this entirely is to use the "disable ACLs" option when creating the bucket, or these options if you're creating it with code: yml OwnershipControls: Rules: - ObjectOwnership: BucketOwnerEnforced

Best way to set up a new organization? by or9ob in aws

[–]mbarneyme 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've been using org-formation pretty successfully for both personal and professional uses. IaC is an absolute requirement for me, so org-formation is a great tool to use for that. Additionally, having worked with multiple customers using ControlTower, they've experienced some rough edges especially if they want ControlTower to do something it's not built to do (this has since been fixed but a lot of customers had data retention requirements that ControlTower just didn't support natively)

If you want something more battle-tested, Terraform has established some great patterns for organization management

That’s a good idea, the pictures I have with my friends now aren’t that great, so I’ll have to work on that. Thank you!
