"@bostonou tbh I've grown much more patient in some dimensions since I became a parent. but waiting for someone to make a decision that impacts me remains painful. (I suspect this is part of why people avoid entrepreneurship.)"

"@sudo_goreng yeah that. even without spot you can run on demand at very reasonable rates if youre willing to engineer accordingly"

"@onehappyfellow agreed. never seen a bridge fall a chemical processing plant leak or a nuclear reactor melt down before. only software has big mistakes"

"@PixelCanuck @onehappyfellow imo many website backends involve a ton of engineering. front end/view rendering tends to involve less engineering just due to the resource/risk profile. (this isnt a knock on difficulty. front end is hard. but the risk profile is much different.)"

"1) this is really an observation of societal norms. non-life-threatening outcomes dont get regulated the same way as life threatening outcomes. same holds for financial institutions insurance companies etc. youre mostly observing that downside risk of software failure tends to not be life threatening. 2) whether or not a field is real engineering is surely judged by the field itself and behavior of practitioners rather than societal norms. not all programmers are engineers but that doesnt mean there are NO software engineers"

"@Shreyassanthu77 @onehappyfellow I dunno about other langs but in clj you can write property based tests that catch exceptions and check that the exception message/params are correct. e.g. "as long as keywords are in an incorrect order you get an error message like $foo""

"@traits_reality yeah but if your goal is to exit AWS entirely"

"is that tdd tho yeah you happened to know the inputs/outputs ahead of time but did they significantly impact the design of the program I would have used this in the final deliverable for sure but in cases where the logic is complex I usually write tests to pin down behavior as I gonot to discover a design based on usage. so when I write the test varies based on when I find out about some new behavior"

"ok I've heard this before but I've never had a problem with it. walk me through it. I get the expense if you're running a lot of egress (e.g. to replicate cross region) but given a single AZ setup how does a NAT run up massive charges traffic coming from an LB doesn't count as NAT traffic does it your instances have to initiate everything running through the NAT yeah"

"@traits_reality or is the argument just: they charge you an arm and a leg for getting off AWS (which is true.)"
