this may be one of my favorite pieces of 2020, judging by the shit-eating grin on my face as I read it: a thoroughgoing doomsday investigation into recreating your entire infra from scratch using Terraform and AWS, by @vonfreud of SignalAI. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ€" title="Sign of the horns" aria-label="Emoji: Sign of the horns">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ„" title="Collision symbol" aria-label="Emoji: Collision symbol"> https://fmarques.org/disaster-recovery-with-terraform-aws-and-a-few-lessons-learned/">https://fmarques.org/disaster-...

a rad slide deck from @kathleencodes on how to keep your technical skills sharp as a manager (without annoying your team), and why you should invest in yourself and your future. i found this one via @shaunabram& #39;s piece, i think. https://www.slideshare.net/kvignos/how-to-keep-up-your-technical-skills-without-annoying-your-teams/">https://www.slideshare.net/kvignos/h...
and @lunivore on running pre-mortems, or "futurespectives". this is one of my favorite interview questions for seniorfolk.
