"Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future" - lots of lessons and an inspiring read.

This is actually pretty kewl. You could potentially branch the current CLI from the GitHub repo and add that functionality in. Ideally the flow would work something like the following:

  1. Start a multipart object upload
  2. Issue "Upload Part - Copy" requests for each part of an object ( http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/mpUploadUploadPartCopy.html )
  3. Complete the multipart object upload

Alternative flow:

  1. Enable bucket versioning
  2. Download the parsed S3 objects
  3. Start a multipart object upload to S3 with the specified target object as the object name
  4. Reupload the parsed S3 objects as parts of a single multipart object upload
  5. Delete the previous parsed objects once the multipart object upload is complete (a delete marker should be added to the top of the version stack, but the previously stored version should still be available if you specify its handle/version id).

Edit: changed formatting

It should be mentioned that this service is not a stand alone service but is rather used in conjunction with the CloudFront service - once a WAF ACL has been configured it can be attached to a CloudFront distribution.

Edit: spelling correction

I'm surprised that Jordan Belfort hasn't appeared here already. You might know him more appropriately as The Wolf of Wall Street, and its doesn't matter what your opinion of the guy is - he has a natural talent for sales.

As you will note from his material, that there are 3 types of people, those that don't want the product, those that are unsure if they want it, and those that want the product. Sales is about converting those "unsures'" to sure wants.

I would recommend giving the book "The Wolf of Wall Street" a read. His course "Straight Line System" is pretty pricey, but if you have the money or the means, I would recommend this course over any other: http://jordanbelfort.com/sales-order/

No one has an obligation to help any one else. You come into this world alone, and you will leave this world alone.

Harvard CS50 online course ( http://cs50.tv/2014/fall/lectures/0/w/ ) has a really nice interface for viewing lecturer and the related slides - the way they have done it seems better than most other solutions I have seen to this day.

That is true, and would this knowledge come from specializing in a certain domain or just intuition?

Or could there be guidelines for determining if some technology will live a short life, for example: tablets or even the Apple watch?
