All right, let's give you a spin, App Runner. Somewhere an @awscloud service team's collective sphincters tighten.
Before I start, a hat-tip of admiration to @AWSIdentity; awscli v2 + SSO make this a streamlined experience in my shitposting account.
I don't know what a container registry is so we'll go with a source code repository. It doesn't even pretend that I"m using CodeCommit, which is nice.
Good names are descriptive and memorable.
This would benefit from an info box telling me that "Automatic" costs a dollar a month. Note that GitHub webhooks to CodeBuild cost $0 a month. It's not the money, it's the principle!
Okay, this app has a Docker file already so I'm backing up and learning what a container repository is after all. Drat, I'd made it so far without this.
Okay, built and pushed an image.

"Do I wish to configure my own IAM role?" I absolutely do not.
Defaulting to port 1 is a bold and incorrect choice.
"That IAM role you wanted me to build? Yeah, about that..."
"You're holding it wrong."
♪ ♫ ♬ Circles....

You're spinning me around in circles, again. ♪ ♫ ♬
A reload of the page loses all the form data but fixes the problem. Huzzah.
And we're apparently working. Try to knock it over, internet: mcdg9advpm.us-east-2.awsapprunner.com
The site is working, but CloudWatch is convinced it's taking a nap.
I further like how the application logs see everything coming from the link-local address ranges.
There we go. This important service is now up and running.

Overall, not at all bad. The stumblings were mostly mine; I don't think this is aimed at multi-container applications defined in a docker-compose file.
Thus concludes this experiment. I've taken the site down because you people aren't worth the 6¢ an hour it costs me to entertain you.

Oh I just found tonight’s Twitter thread topic. Let’s do it!
Back up any personal (NOTE: NOT CORPORATE IP!) data on my work laptop whenever I get a context-less "let's talk" message.
Putting all of my corporate expenses on my personal card, then expensing them instead of the other way around to avoid giving them the "well technically this might be embezzlement" stick if they disagree with a decision.

This looks *WAY* easier than the alternate "commit newsworthy atrocities" approach to getting @verified...
I think the "Sports" category best fits me, because when it comes to dunking on AWS I'm basically the Michael Jordan of the space.
“What makes you notable?”
“Pass me @Twitter’s AWS bill for a minute and I’ll show you.”

Ooh, the @awscloud Application Cost Profiler has come out, and I'm going to test it.

aws.amazon.com/about-aws/what…
It wants an S3 bucket. Cool. The service has one bucket for ingest, and one for output generally. Which does this form want?

ALWAYS WITH THE QUESTIONS, YOU PEOPLE!
"Encryption of S3 buckets is basically a box check for compliance groups. That said, we at @awscloud are going to mandate it for this service with your own KMS key because the KMS team bribed us for that sweet $1 a month revenue juicer."

Requiem for an IRC network.

So back in 2008-ish, I volunteered as freenode network staff, which I was for the next seven years. This still occasionally surprises people. My nick was, unsurprisingly, "Corey."

That's how I met @mike_julian and @JesseTrucks.
I'd been on the network learning for a while, primarily in the postfix and centos channels. (That's how I met @BitIntegrity, whom I later married. To someone else.)

It was nice to have a chance to give back.
There was a lot of fun, a lot of drama... @bequinning and I flew out for annual holiday gatherings in the UK for a number of years.

Eventually I stopped having time to spend on IRC, and focused on other things. Like shitposting here!

And now a jackass gives a #DOES21 keynote.
Huh. I may be overloaded.
An empathetic talk title.

In this "welcome back to @awscloud" thread, I'll take new AWS CEO @aselipsky through a whirlwind tour of what AWS has been up to during his time away.
I know his first day was Monday, but the CloudFormation thing that was going to tell me when he got to the lobby was wedged in ROLLBACK_FAILED, so hopefully he was able to at least find the bathroom okay...
As I'm sure @aselipsky remembers, @awscloud prides itself on being misunderstood for long periods of time. It'll sometimes be first to market with something they refine, or late to market with something polished. Their Kubernetes option went for novelty: both late and underdone.
