Show HN: Use DNS TXT to share information
It's always amusing to see DNS "hackery"[1] like this, and always makes me go back to DNS Toys (https://www.dns.toys/), which generated a huge discussion on HN a year ago [2]

[1] well, it's not really hackery if you're being pedantic, since it's doing what the spec allows it to do

Show HN: Query Your Sheets with SheetSQL
Readers may also enjoy Steampipe [1], an open source CLI to live query Google Sheets [2] and 140+ other services with SQL (e.g. AWS, GitHub, etc). It uses Postgres Foreign Data Wrappers under the hood and supports joins etc across the services. (Disclaimer - I'm a lead on the project.)

Osquery: An sqlite3 virtual table exposing operating system data to SQL
be mindful of its AGPLv3 https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/blob/v0.21.8/LICENSE (AFAIK v0.4.3 is the last MIT release https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/blob/v0.4.3/LICENSE ) and the actual providers are Apache 2 <https://github.com/turbot/steampipe-plugin-aws/blob/v0.131.0...> (but I don't know if provider drift makes them compatible with 0.4 or not)
iasql seems to be AWS only, but good for them for taking this on:

How to run an AWS CIS v3.0 assessment in CloudShell
In a prior post I showed how to install Steampipe in AWS CloudShell to instantly query over 460+ resource types from your AWS APIs using SQL, and another post on how to use the Steampipe AWS Compliance mod to assess over 25+ security benchmarks across your AWS accounts.

Cutting down AWS cost by $150k per year simply by shutting things off
Readers may find Steampipe's [1] AWS Thrifty Mod [2] useful. It will automatically scan multiple accounts and regions for 50 cost saving opportunities - many of which are looking for over-provisioned or unused resources. For example, it's crazy how much you can save by doing things like just converting your EBS volumes to the newer gp3 type. Combine with Flowpipe [3] to automate checks and actions. It's all open source and extensible.
