Welcome back everyone!
FinOps was a big topic last year, with 31% of organisations focusing on adoption—but is it really a priority for most? I’ve shared some thoughts on how FinOps priorities might evolve this year and what it takes to address challenges like waste reduction, spending optimisation, and forecasting.
Check it out here: https://aws.plainenglish.io/how-to-build-a-finops-culture-15943e18006e
Would love to hear your thoughts—how is your team approaching FinOps this year?

Apologies I don’t mean to dominate this channel but just released an article I think you’ll enjoy https://newsletter.betterstack.com/p/how-tinder-secures-its-500-microservices
500+ microservices?! Hurts my head just thinking about that.
Is anyone else using Skate by Charmbracelet? It’s a nice personal key-value storage to keep API keys off of the command line(https://github.com/charmbracelet/skate)
I saw it, but since every mainstream OS has a key store, was thinking instead to use this https://github.com/zalando/go-keyring
I like how that one interfaces with OSX keychain

Anyone know how to trigger a slack message if the due date on an Asana “subtask” changes?
It’s easy to do with parent tasks but subtask due dates are tricky and tho they probably have webhooks for the same, I’m not so much a developer to figure it out.
Has anyone done it or can help? Would greatly appreciate!
