Not sure if this will help you but I have to make crazy shit at least every 90 days, I mean something that is so fucked up cool people are like "how the fuck did you build that"

Think of something that is so far outside the normal "my day" now think of what you would really love to build? Go build it. At my latest job we got the boss to agree to let us spend at least 20% of our work schedule doing "fuckery".

Now fuckery is doing something anything I think is fun, cool and has almost no business application at first but usually we find new ways to get data, scrape shit or automate tasks. My boss, I automated his weekly reports with python, we automated work for the accounting team and building a tool for the analytics people.

fucking love this and going to steal it... also building in a regex auto-debugger script in python tonight so I don't get these.

@Voxera I followed word for word the instructions they gave from the advertisemet. No code needed, no devops engineer nothing.

As it turns out each instance I setup, crashed, three times, the fourth time I went thru it from scratch... stalled... so I slammed my forhead against the keyboard... and it works now. Using their mongo atlass or compass app to connect to a "free tier" instance.
