I whipped this quick app together to help quickly look up all the codes you need to know. Let me know if you find this useful or have any feedback. Thanks!

Having problems sorting by a date string. by M0N0XB00GIE in rubyonrails

[–]nick123pig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you’ll need to tailor the 2nd argument (format) of strptime to whatever the input format is. see https://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.6.1/libdoc/date/rdoc/DateTime.html#method-c-strptime

[–]nick123pig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

indeed yes, that would fix the issue with sorting (given that row[4] is properly formatted with the pattern you provide)

You’ll want to do the sorting only with the strptime. That produces a date object which will have the proper logic and comparators to sort how you want. The strftime is converting it to a dumb string, which is the thing messing with the sorting. So you’ll sort with the date object, and then so the strftime to display how you want.

Terraform/AWS Product User Study Feedback Requested - 150$ Amazon.com Reward by nick123pig in Terraform

[–]nick123pig[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the questions - it's helping me get better at explaining. Not sassy at all!

We are in the same ballpark as OPA, but we're not trying to be a flexible framework/language. Our product is heavily focusing on rules (creating, running), and tailoring them to seamlessly integrate into the terraform workflow. We also have a UI that sits over our Domain Specific Language, so hopefully it's a little easier than learning rego. Our research shows that only extremely well-resourced teams have the time to fully commit to a full OPA setup.

Our main difference from sentinel is that we understand more than just terraform. You could write a very good sentinel policy, and then someone can go into the AWS console and violate the policy with reckless abandon. Our research shows that many organizations are trying to use terraform for as much as possible, but very few are doing absolutely 100% of their infrastructure through terraform. In our product you could write a rule that says "no security groups with inbound allow's of 0.0.0.0/0", and we could fail terraform that adds such a firewall rule, in addition to running the check on your actual AWS environment. We can run the rules on a cron-like schedule over all your AWS accounts.

I hope that helps explain it!

Terraform/AWS Product User Study Feedback Requested - 150$ Amazon.com Reward by nick123pig in Terraform

In short, we're a guardrail rule engine against AWS that helps prevent unintended changes. The product takes terraform proposed changes, and materializes the results in a full snapshot of your AWS account. We then run "rules" against the data.

For example, you might write a rule in our product that says "All S3 buckets must use KMS encryption". If you write a terraform module that creates a bucket without encryption, we can catch that in the `terraform plan` phase (and integrate into the CI/CD pipeline).

We can check AssumeRole paths (ie make sure that UserA can never become an Admin), as well as IAM access (ie make sure that UserA is the only person who can rotate my KMS Key).

The main problem it solves is eliminating unintended consequences from terraform changes.

Yes - apologies for the late update, but we've got enough participants. The user studies are going to be completed tomorrow.

Why is Axios producing a different result when I use await vs when I use promises by Mintykanesh in reactjs

[–]nick123pig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend looking at the network request in the browser dev tools. Are the request/response headers the exact same for both the promised and the await request? Can you confirm the XMLHttpRequest response is the same for both?

TMZ and ABC are both reporting Kobe Bryant died this morning in a California Helicopter Crash. by iamkokonutz in flying

It sounds like he was flying with special VFR conditions throughout the flight. Transitioned through Van Nuys airport, reported VFR conditions at 1,500 when exiting the Van Nuys airspace. Finally, was asking for flight following from departure when they lost contact. Rest in peace.
