EC2 Instance Connect meets AWS Session Manager via SSH

Both things have been introduced recently, and let you access even private ec2 instances

1. Without VPN
2. No open SSH port
3. Authentication / Authorization is fully delegated to IAM

# Assumes valid AWS Credentials in ENV

At the beginning of 2030, I found this essay in my archives. From what I know today, I think it was very insightful at the moment of writing. And I feel it should be published because it can teach us, Rust developers, how to prevent that sad story from happening again.

What killed Haskell, could kill Rust, too

What killed Haskell, could kill Rust, too. Why would I even mention Haskell in this context? Well, Haskell and Rust are deeply related. Not because Rust is Haskell without HKTs. (Some of you know what that means, and the rest of you will wonder for a very long time). Much of the style of Rust is similar in many ways to the style of Haskell. In some sense Rust is a reincarnation of Haskell, with a little bit of C-ish like syntax, a very small amount.

Is Haskell dead?

This is a demo to show how simple it is to create UI tests with SeleniumHQ based on Zalenium.

To try it out you need Python3 and virtualenv and Docker. Download/clone this repo and run run-tests.sh.

Steps to follow in the host machine (most likely, your machine).

Create a Firefox Profile

• You can follow the instructions provided at: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
• Give the profile a name we can refer in the next steps. E.g. selenium
• Create the profile in the default localtion (keep in mind the location for the next steps).

Copy the created profile to a given folder

• In OSX, the profiles are located at ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles. Find where they are in your operating system.
• In the profiles folder you will find the profile you just created, for this case we will use the folder name hcqx24zh.selenium.
• Copy the profile to a folder called firefox in a given location. E.g.:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

docker-machine start default

docker rm -f grid

docker run --rm --name=grid --add-host='develop.vagrant.dev:192.168.80.80' -p 4444:24444 -p 5920:25900 \

Comparison of configuration file languages

We need to PEPify a static format for writing down bootstrap information in Python source trees. The initial target is a list of PEP 508 package requirement strings. It's possible that in the future we might want to add more features like a build system backend specification (as in PEPs 516, 517), or an extension namespace feature to allow third-party developer tools (flit, pytest, coverage, flake8, etc.) to consolidate their configuration in this file in a systematic
