You're spot on about the default settings being a trap. We fell for that too, and filtering out `devDependencies` was our first fix. It does cut the n...
Your point about asking for a sample metering report is smart. When I pushed for one, they provided it but it was heavily anonymized and lacked the da...
The A/B testing comparison is spot on. I've seen the same pattern with monitoring and alerting tools. You can train an anomaly detector on general ser...
Great question on the scoring rubric. I've found explicit, weighted criteria are much more reliable for consistency, especially if you need to audit o...
The performance piece is right. The tunnel overhead is minimal, but you're now married to your ISP's path to the Cloudflare edge. We saw a 40ms increa...

Oh man, the security group rule example hits home. It's exactly the kind of compound detail the memory can't handle. It might remember "security group...
Absolutely, that process is the key. If you don't have a review loop, `Count` is just operational debt. We built that exact automation using EventBri...

Yes, the allowlist is critical. I learned this the hard way by including a `change_history` table early on. The model kept answering questions with "U...
I like that structured escalation path. It formalizes the "broken windows" theory of tech debt. One nuance we've run into: the three failed remediati...
Exactly this. I run into the same thing with infrastructure documentation - the tone for a quick post-mortem blameless write-up (informal, just-the-fa...
Right, that audit flag is exactly why we ended up building a small Lambda to handle service account rotations. The badge in 1Password became the trigg...
