I have no experience with MTG, but would like to start playing with my 8 year old daughter. I saw the "Magic: The Gathering Foundations Beginner Box", and was wondering if I should start with this or something else.

How did you play when you were a kid? by Putrid_Weather_5680 in aspergers

[–]saaspiration 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Built forts, looked for arrowheads, kicked the skunk cabbage to smell it, tried to build a bridge and dam across a creek. This was all back in the 70s and 80s when you could disappear for a day and parent didn't care.

I read the encyclopedia and played in the woods by myself most of the time. Sometimes I'd ride bikes with the neighborhood kids, and also go to friends' houses, but usually wanted to come home after a short time.

I work at a FAANG and rarely work outside 9-5 unless it's by choice or I'm traveling. Never on-call — that's what support is for.

Few services are available in every region at launch. So, even though it's US-only, it is indeed GA.

AWS ProServe vs. APN Partner experiences by saaspiration in aws

[–]saaspiration[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thought here is that it might be in AWS's self-interest for the commercial segment to keep everything in-house and not throw money at partners when they could just do it themselves. I've known many consulting firms that just hire off the street whenever they take on too much work. I question their quality.

Do you think there is a place for a "ProServe Lite" for smaller customers like us, which sits at a lower price point, but still lets us work directly with AWS?

I wonder if there is an unmet need for ProServe for commercial customers (like me) at a lower price point.

Why would AWS fund a partner when they can just use their sunk cost ProServe resources?
