My internal monologue when it starts tweeting:
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST GOOGLE CLOUD CONSOLE IS THE WORST FUCKING THING I'VE EVER HAD TO DEAL WITH WHY CANT I JUST SET UP A FUCKING BILLING ACCOUNT JESUS FUCK YOU @GOOGLE FUCK YOU
Cursed but I love it. The same energy as "we noticed Go devs started relying on machine-dependent map iteration order so we just randomized it always."
This is your friendly reminder that the internet is unusable today. SO gives you this unreadable visual mess by default right now. 🤬

I think there's no need for AWS IAM users today. So I made a PoC to "prove" it. First here are the general use-cases for creds
* AWS SSO works great for humans 👍
* Roles work fine inside AWS 👍
* Federation works fine from other clouds 👍
* Raspberry Pi in your closet ❓

THIS IS SO EXCITING. I asked for a capability like this back in Jan 2020 (times were simpler back then) and it's almost kind of shipped!
Undocumented right now, but it works. 🎉 Now if only AWS sts:AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity could map arbitrary claims to session tags.

Hi Eric! While I can't turn back the clock on any trouble caused, I wanted to let you know that we heard your feedback and have good news to share. 🆕 All new and existing accounts created using Organizations are no longer automatically subscribed to marketing emails. 😀 ^KB
Hat tip to @honeycombio for persisting aggregate query results ~forever. I was curious about general traffic levels on some services I tore down entirely in the fall, and here I am looking at graphs in HC from query links I posted to Slack 9 months ago. ✨

In 1959, a Swedish engineer at Volvo patented what would become one of the greatest inventions of all time
Volvo stood to make billions
But after a meeting with Volvo's President, he decided to give it away for free - and it changed the world
Here’s how that meeting went 🧶👇
Importantly: "With this addition, you can now self-register multiple MFA authenticators." 🙌
#ICYMI: You can add WebAuthn as a new multi-factor authentication (MFA) to AWS Single Sign-On, in addition to currently supported one-time password (OTP) and Radius authenticators. go.aws/3oeLhBh
These little guys will never learn that they don’t have to fight over a sugar supply I keep refreshing. – at San Francisco, CA
👇 This would be very useful for me! #awswishlist
So much this. 👇 AWS encourages multi-account for isolation but $100 minimum per-account for biz kills having an account per-env / per-engineer / etc. It's not like there's any cost diff to AWS if you're filling the same number of tickets across 1 account or 100. #AWSWishlist
