I'm going for a long weekend in Amsterdam soon. I was not planning on bringing my book with me so this ChatGPT-rendered image is a great substitute.

I once (by accident) wrote "Dead <name>," as the first line in an email. A week later the person I sent the email to passed away after a short period of illness. Needless to say I am still haunted by this til this day. Maybe having an AI write the boilerplate parts of an email is not so bad?

I've published a course for the #Terraform associate certification on #Leanpub! It's 90% done, and available at a reduced minimum price until I consider it to be 100% complete. A few illustrations, quizzes and general polishing left to complete! leanpub.com/c/terraform-...

Things that you commit to git tends to stay in the git history, even if you remove the file afterwards. Although it is possible to clean up your git history, it's a good idea is to keep unintended files out from git to begin with. Use .gitignore for this www.env0.com/blog/gitigno... #env0 #git

What is a good format for a printed technical book? I mean physical format, size-wise. I published my first book in A4 format to easily fit code samples and output and stuff. However, that is not the most common format for printed books. Is "US Trade 6x9 inch" the common format?

In #Terraform 1.10 the element function now accepts negative indices. Unappreciated update perhaps! What is the element function for, anyway? One use case is to spread a number of subnets across availability zones, or virtual machines across subnets. Let me know if you think of more use cases!

I had a 30-minute presentation on the #Terraform #Test Framework at a meetup today. Note to future self: 30 minutes is by far NOT enough time to cover background on IaC/Terraform + the test framework with live demos 😅 I had to cut the majority of the live demo, which was unfortunate.

Watching this reaction video by @marktinderholt.com I have VERY bad experiences from watching reaction videos in the past, they're generally aimed at a generation much younger than me - but the format of this one by Mark is very good and filled with great insights! www.youtube.com/watch?v=chwC...

I'm a big fan of #Terraform, but I'm also aware that some tools may be a better fit in certain contexts. It is not really possible to say that "Tool-X is best, end of story" Tool-X might be best in Context-A, but in Context-B something else might make more sense. Use the best tool for the job!
