A Time Traveler's Destiny takes you on a nail-biting journey to a string of past and present timelines, so deeply intertwined that makes one questions current reality. Be prepared for a whacky twists, that leaves you thinking about the timelines. Based on a candid recollection of an intense dream.https://tinyurl.com/y7ggmudl
This complete lockdown is unprecedented, and has resulted in some behavioral changes in me & my family. Wondering how this impacted you, and what social & behavioral changes have you encountered. Some of these are contrary to what the situation offers, so I find those interesting.- My productivity sunk 50%, in that I spend more than on an activity that I used to- My perception of...
Here is what I generally practice, perhaps not on all days. I work 3-4 days remote, and need these to maintain sanity.Curious to know how others practice? - Always find time/means to accommodate regular sanitizing tasks: exercise, meditation, reading, repeat - Lists tasks for the day first thing in the morning, set approximate time slots - Use "commute time" (e.g. 1.5 hrs) to learn...
Dev/Sec/Ops here. Small-sized MSP using GCP & AWS across multi-cloud regions, and using AWS CloudWatch & CloudTrail logs, Stackdriver for logging, alerting, errors, etc. We're finding limited usefulness of this logging infrastructure. Wondering if its just me!As DevOps, I really find StackDriver logging UI not much useful to scroll through. For one thing, it is really slow. Secondly, I...
Monitoring your public cloud network is an unsolved problem, such as on AWS. It is far from complete, with many loose and fragmented solutions at best. For instance, filtering workloads with high inbound traffic, with specific sessions across VPC, Classifying short-lived bursts, long-lived sessions, etc.
We have put together a short questionnaire looking for some feedback on possible offerings in this space.
Audience: 1) Anyone using public clouds such as AWS, GCP 2) SREs, IT solutions provider, security professionals welcome
If I may ask, initially did you have any means to implement a system from scratch (i.e. no passion, and no motivation) to consistently performing and developing that into a habit? That would be the heart of discussion here (to be aware of audience diversity here). It has to start from an emotional pain, or an emotional need to get to a specific short-term goal in the first place.
E.g. working out. One starts with a short-term goal of running on treadmill with the intention to lose a few lbs, or to develop some better sleep. And then, gives up after the goal is achieved; some give up unable to follow-through. Then, you get frustrated about not following through the following year, continuing to be mediocre. And then, you develop a better momentum, better sense of following-through, and better discipline, only to give up after a little bit longer (excuses can be formidable). And then...you develop enough persistence, enough discipline, enough grit, just to make it into a habit. Once you turn that into a habit, you just don't care for goals, excuses or motivations.
But I found that incredibly hard to achieve (over the years). At least, this was my path. When I was put in a stringent disciplined system in 20s, I resisted. I always wanted to break such patterns, routines & rules because I thought they hinder creativity. Now, I am at a full-circle back to implementing such a system of grit & discipline.
Given these, if I were to start something new today e.g. Taekwondo, I would implement grit, discipline and just following-through. But I won't have goals, or I don't care for passion either.

Note: Not intending to be boastful, but genuinely curious.I just love running outdoors. I don't run any marathons, nor I do I believe in charity runs. I don't run for health reasons, nor getting into shape, nor weight loss (am in a great shape, not much fat weighing about 140 lbs consistent). I don't run for sleep (I sleep 8-10 hrs/day even otherwise). I don't run for appetite (I am fairly...
