To acquire store commodity data to integrate into BargoDrip CLI I need to either scrape it or use an API. opt. 1: scrape from multiple online stores opt. 2: take time to build a custom API that retrieves the data I need Leaning more towards option 2🤔 #PortfolioProjects

Created a AWS account to practice using EC2, S3, IAM for DevOps. Took me longer than a minute to do so, wasn't too sure how free the "free tier" was so made sure to set reminders when a service is about to reach its limit. Maybe set a calendar reminder for the 12mnth mark too? 🤭

Deployed a Node.js app to AWS for first time today using Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). Benefits of using cloud: - increase cost efficiency (when handled well) - ability to scale apps - reduce maintenance overhead #AWS #EC2 #CloudComputing

TIL: serverless is a method for deploying your app via **functions** instead of monolithic apps and endpoints. Each major could provider has it's own service for it i.e Amazon has Lambda. I wonder if there are other developer centric definitions for the term 🤔 #CloudComputing

"Travel the World while Working the Digital Nomad Way" What I learned from this great convo: - If you see a company you want to work for go find their FOSS project and see how you can get involved. - Everyone is a mentee & everyone is a mentor Thanks Eddie Jaoude | Open Source | GitHub Star Kunal Kushwaha
