My old roommate just emailed me about this, he and his girlfriend are both working on the project. One thing they noted:

> The project is getting kicked out of our current building in November. We are looking for a new home for a few months. Somewhere in the south bay. Light industrial facility would be great but some office space with some large open areas (former cube farm) would work too. An aircraft hanger would be awesome....but we are not holding our breath....any decent space will do. Please get in touch if you have such a space / know someone / can pull some strings :).

They are also having a 'Friends don't let friends build alone' day in Mountain View in early october. Email me (profile) and I'll forward it along if you're interested!

I think you're absolutely correct about the writers having potentially equitable quality, but I would challenge the following statement:

> The publication is less relevant as an institution and a brand

Journalism, and journalists, need to be trusted to deliver researched and verifiable content. This seems to be enforced because of reputation – i.e, the reputation of a publication.

When an organization does what BuzzFeed does to earn eyeballs, dollars and readership, it makes you question what they would do in more serious, "important" topics, such as describing world events to future voters.

I have trouble trusting BuzzFeed as an organization, as with Vice, due to this "trashiness". I think we all should.

Terraform saves partial state as it creates resources for these exact scenarios.

In your example, Terraform would create and save the ID of the server to state before going along to create the DNS record. If the DNS record failed to create for some external reason, the next `terraform apply` you ran would simply refresh the server and go on to create the DNS record.
