I would agree that the "ROI" of hosting your own blog is super high. Writing for other sites or working with a marketing agency that specializes in tech content like Fixate.io, is a great way to get your content on existing commercial and non-commercial blogs. And sometimes get paid. This often is even better for your resume because it is higher visibility.

Sure it's "FREE" - becasue every time you use it, you will be consuming compute from your AWS account. That is my thought. AWS would not do this if it did not make them money. It is not just to be cool.

Wow dude. Clearly you have not touched Docker. And if you have ever run a VM that is a container. Or I guess you are only using a mainframe? It's just a component like any component to any application. And there is plenty of tooling to help with updates and compliance, like CoreOS open source of Clair. Your point seems to come from another place because technically it's totally misguided.
