@iLvHndls is the switchboard exactly 30”? I’ve got a space that I’d love to put one up, but I’ve only got 29.5” between the door moldings. Any options for me?

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@ralphtice @jryans If you outgrow stacker, take your templates and orchestrate your stacks via your new favorite tool.

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@ralphtice @jryans The other win is sep of concerns. Troposphere for cfn tmpl gen + stacker for orchestration. Vs one tool fits all for terraform.

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@ralphtice @jryans We also had enough random issues that popped up, and we lost trust in it, at the time.

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@ralphtice @jryans It was pretty rough a year ago, but I think it's gotten a lot better. The multi-provider abstraction was an unnecessary one for us.

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@ralphtice yeah, nothing developed in that space yet, but troposphere is good enough, for now.

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@ralphtice dislike

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@ralphtice good luck. Lemme know if you have trouble getting started. I've used and updated it extensively, so I know most of the ins and outs by now.

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@ralphtice *something similar

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@ralphtice no one should ever interact with raw cfn templates. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@ralphtice yeah, I ripped out all of the terraform here as soon as I started. Whichever way you go, at least use troposphere or someone similar.

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@ralphtice you said it, not me 😂

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@ralphtice in the beginning, it solved the problem of allowing granular stacks and dependent stack via outputs->inputs, but cfn has export support now.

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@ralphtice it's good. We use it to manage all of our cfn stacks, and we always contribute back when it's not good 😀

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@pocketcasts ahh, so it does. I must've had an extra space when I pasted it in. Thanks!

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@pocketcasts did the refresh intent get dropped? I don't see it in the Android docs, but it was mentioned on an old reddit thread.

@AWSSupport @danieldietrich Forum update says it's fixed, but the error is still there. Can you re-engage that team?https://t.co/x4el9q5pjE

[Adam McElwee @adam_mc_]

@danieldietrich @awscloud freshly baked test case to build a fat jar w/ maven shade to exhibit the issue https://t.co/I84zprk9O0

[Daniel Dietrich  @danieldietrich]

.@awscloud Please fix that unicode bug! Our issue is open for 8 months(!) now! https://t.co/h8NLpyYx0N #AWS #amazon
