    This is really impressive.

    I've been running a scraper against the output of the "aws --help" CLI commands for a few months, to try and get a better feel for how often AWS changes - I call this "help scraping". The answer is it changes a LOT - there are updates to their APIs every single day.

    Here's the commit log of changes I've tracked so far: https://github.com/simonw/help-scraper/commits/main/aws
