[03:15] <vibe_coder_99> yo! anyone good with terraform? i’m trying to launch my new crypto-based to-do list app and the tutorial is too slow.

[03:15] <sysadmin_dave> What tutorial? Also, crypto to-do list? Why?

[03:16] <vibe_coder_99> it’s strictly vibes based. i just need it to scale. like, infinite scale. i found this script on a forum that says it “maximizes throughput”.

[03:17] <cloud_guru> Paste the plan. Don’t just run random scripts.

[03:18] <vibe_coder_99> nah its fine, i just want to know what “p4d.24xlarge” means. sounds powerful. i changed the count to 50 just to be safe for launch day.

[03:18] <sysadmin_dave> STOP.

[03:18] <sysadmin_dave> DO NOT RUN THAT.

[03:19] <cloud_guru> That instance is $32 an hour. PER INSTANCE.

[03:19] <vibe_coder_99> wait really? lol whatever i have $100 in credits. running terraform apply --auto-approve now.

[03:19] * sysadmin_dave screams internally

[03:22] <vibe_coder_99> man aws is slow today. it’s been provisioning for like 2 minutes.

[03:22] <cloud_guru> You are requesting 50 top-tier GPU instances. You are trying to provision a supercomputer to host a to-do list.

[03:23] <vibe_coder_99> gotta go fast right? 🚀

[03:24] <vibe_coder_99> uh guys

[03:25] <vibe_coder_99> my bank called. fraud alert. something about “unusual spending pattern”.

[03:25] <sysadmin_dave> You just burned your credits in 4 minutes. You are now spending ~$1600/hour.

[03:26] <vibe_coder_99> how do i undo??? ctrl-z doesn’t work in terminal!!

[03:26] <sysadmin_dave> terraform destroy. PRAY that the API isn’t rate limiting you.

[03:27] <vibe_coder_99> it says “state lock”. i think i closed the window too fast.
