Just under 8 hours to go! I'm away to bed for a good sleep before it begins.

See you tomorrow
Also, managed NATs are wild expensive so not to be thrown in willy nilly.

I haven't used EMR, but I have used Security Groups.

I'd be leaning towards option 1 of your two choices, which is to specify your own SG with the rules you need, essentially defining your firewall which seems to make sense in this instance. You'll have to do some experimenting to discover any cascading, or not, behaviour of multiple SGs. If you define your own you might not even get the default one which might only be applied in the absence of any user defined.

You might go through a few iterations of IP:Port requirements discovery, but that's the price of following the righteous path of least privilege.

Such pessimism Liu
That is the saying Piet, but this isn't that kind of party  

Anybody reading this topic is welcome to join our leaderboard, whether you're a long standing CodeRanch member or have arrived here for the first time today and everybody in-between. It's just a bit of fun, so give it a whirl!
I believe VS Code is a very different beast to the VS of old. VS Code is just a code editor and has none of the visual GUI creation stuff you're probably thinking of Campbell.

Although there are many plugins for VS Code so who knows, perhaps you can do GUI editing too. I don't know.

On the implementation of the FreezableMouseListener, you got some solid advice in your other topic a few days ago that should put you in the right direction with it.

Ah well in that case your intended design cannot be brought into reality. Instead you could implement a "freezable mouse listener" or something similar, where the listener code checks whether it's in a freeze or not and responds accordingly.

Declaring and assigning the final variable at the same time will resolve your problems related to variable assignment. E.g:

If you want to practice your programming skills in a zero risk, and hopefully fun, environment then why don't you join us CodeRanchers having a go at Advent of Code.

You can even put it on your CV, or at least bring it up in conversation at interview. I'm really serious, this kind of stuff is gold for something technical to talk about with future employers.

Hope over to the Advent of Code intro topic to get started. Hopefully you can join us.

If you want to practice your programming skills in a zero risk, and hopefully fun, environment then please do join us for our annual go at the Advent of Code. We have a CodeRanch leaderboard that you are welcome to join. Head over to the Intro to Advent of Code topic to get started.

Hopefully see you there.

If you need to reassign different objects to a variable then it cannot be final. By declaring your variable as final you are telling the compiler that once it has been assigned an object then you have no intention of ever changing your mind and you want the compiler to forbid it.

In your case here the final keyword behaviour is in opposition to your intended design so you'll want to remove it.

We have a few folks on the leaderboard now which is awesome!!

Any more?    Campbell? Carey? Junilu? Stephan?
We're gearing up to begin on Monday (or very late Sunday night if you're keen to catch the first at midnight)

Just a few days to go. Please do join the CodeRanch leaderboard, it's rather lonely in here just now and it'd be great to see a few folks having a go.

Don't be scared, we don't bite.
It's hard to give a useful minimum and maximum as it'll be different for different people, even different people implementing the same system.

A DTO represents the data content of some database operation, right? So if you are creating a new student you'll probably have an object that represents the student table, and you can reuse that object for reading a student. Some objects will map to a single table, but others may represent more than one table. It's up to you how you do it.

I don't get into JPA work too often these days so perhaps others can bring fresher guidance than I.
