If you pass this, a team of medical professionals will be sent to your home to peacefully euthanize you, as it is the only ethical choice to end your suffering.

I sense a business opportunity: Euthanasia as a Service. EaaS. With an API.
Can't wait until Corey Quinn finds a way run a container on this one
The real question is: can I configure it with a CloudFormation stack?
No but a beta Terraform provider is available. Just don’t forget to import the existing resource lest strange things happen.

Ahem, did you mean OpenTF?
Terraform doesn't make me want to use EaaS though.
No, we provide a CDK L3 construct that ensures your best practice.
now that's hot
Kind of. It's only supported via an embedded Lambda code block written in a version of NodeJS that will expire in about two months.
Also, please exercise caution with your targets file. We have had a few customers complain that it's easy to mix up your targets list with a customer database dump in S3, in which case it will alphabetically and systematically begin killing them off. This is particularly bad as there's a delay before each transaction hits the AWS billing API, which may result in unusually high costs for the month and/or delays until your bill warning alerts fire.
What should the icon look like?

I've got this great idea involving three small floating boxes.
Great minds! I was thinking a nice orange or blue?
I’ve heard google has an alpha version of this for internal use only.
From time to time they let it run loose to clean up their products.
We were going to adopt it but after internal discussions, we’re worried they’ll euthanize it after 22 months. We’re pivoting.
No trials, credit card required.
But is the icon going to be a syringe, a pill or a tombstone?

Three cuboids (with a slightly larger cuboid off to the side).
Is this service only available to those who pass the test?

Spoken like a true software/devops engineer…
In a war between Man and Machine, this could be a CAPTCHA against humans. The kind that only robots can get right.
After working solely with AWS for 11+ years I managed to answer 3/20 correctly…What a relief.

Glad I’m not alone. Been using AWS since like 2009 and I got basically everything wrong.
