I use them all the time. I think they're fantastic. They make me so relaxed I almost cannot move. I relax in a very different way compared to when I meditate (with these it's a much more physical deep relaxation, but when meditating I feel a bit more dissociated from my body).

Baking everything into AMIs is the "right" way to go, but if AWS had a supported, hosted git server inside their network to push into, I'd rather have the speed of deploying from git, and only bake AMIs when necessary for system upgrades.
