Made this new AWS Lambda + DynamoDB solution over top of my Pleroma instance in order to speed up the micro-blog page of my personal site. Surly a quick DynamoDB query will be faster then VPS + Docker + Big Elixir App + Postgres query? Somehow not!?!

10515.3ms response time then the following are quicker. Next step looking into how lambda warmup works, and if the lambda has enough RAM allocated.

Snowboarding at Ehrwald then cross country near Kaltenbrunn. We made challenging hilly route do to a Langlaufen competition in the valley. Acquired new bruises from trying to carve on cross country skis, 😅⛷. The fitness adventure in the mountains was worth it.

Ich habe in München ein altes Uhrenladen gefunden. Sie haben ein wunderschönes Milo Ocean Star.

The styloforest is under construction. Last night got a huge stylophora milka tree in but it broke so now I'm pivoting to using the frags. Plan is to create a dense forest out of the pieces.

Also got a cool deep purple acropora frag and traded for a piece of bubble gum montipora.

Just discovered I've been running ten Heroku applications since 2018. Oops.

Hmm that's a lot of wasted electricity 😞. Sorry world.

Wrote an awesome blog post on new corals in my reef tank but can't publish it 😞. My raku deploy script broke after upgrading to OSX Monterey.

Agreed it is beautiful. Makes me want to start bird watching. For me the gameplay is 7/10. Similar to Magic the Gathering my favorite part is building up cards.

Started selling my extra frags.

Bought a coral for my birthday!

Red Goniopora.

My first Goniopra. Reading care tips I’m a bit nervous with the stories of hobbyist struggles. Hopefully since this is coming from a farmer I trust and has be fragged successfully many times things should be good.

Ich habe es im Flugzeug nach Lanzrote geöffnet. Die Modellnummer ist AE-1200WHD-1AVEF. Es ist eine coole Uhr, aber das Armband ist wirklich schlecht. Ich habe ukrainische Lederarmbänder bestellt. Wir werden sehen.

Auf dem Screenshot kann man weitere Uhren sehen. Irgendwann werde ich über sie alle schreiben.
