What a wild thing to post a few hours after a major AWS outage

If @kirodotdev officially allowed third party harnesses (@opencode etc) it would be one of the best deals in the AI coding subscription space. - Easy to switch between Claude, OpenAI, DeepSeek, and MiniMax models - Pricing seems to be heavily subsidized - AWS credits can be used

My super secret guide for working from home effectively with a five-year-old: 1. Shut my office door 2. Put on headphones 3. ??? 4. Profit

I've been gaming on different desktop PCs that I built myself for 20+ years. 100% of my playtime this year was on @OnDeck and I didn't use my gaming rig at all 🤯

Does the fancy new Aurora DSQL serverless Postgres database from @awscloud work with modern TypeScript tooling like @DrizzleORM? I tested it out: dev.to/stevendsanders/explor…

Trying my hand at writing for the first time in awhile: dev.to/stevendsanders/aws-is…

Cognito doesn't support login via magic links or passkeys out of the box... BUT there is a great project from AWS that allows you to add both of those features. It includes a CDK construct to create the AWS resources and pre-built React UI components. github.com/aws-samples/amazo…

I've been seeing ads on here for weeks trying to get me to vote for a particular candidate for president (take a guess who it is) ...in a state I don't live in. Speaks volumes about the enshittification of this platform.

Next time you're feeling discouraged because web dev has gotten too complicated, go ahead and see how quickly you can publish a desktop or mobile app and then push an update to real users. It's easy to take for granted how frictionless the open web platform can be!

I've been full-time remote for my son's entire life (3 years) and I still feel like I barely see him during the week. Working in an office full-time would subtract AT LEAST another 5 hours per week from time with my family. That is time you can never get back. Hard pass.

I've been all-in on using AWS for the last few years but they are really making it hard to stay enthusiastic. Dumping resources into AI hype while instituting mass layoffs and forced RTO (mass layoffs by another name) doesn't inspire a ton of confidence from customers long-term.

Fun comparison to the JS ecosystem - this is roughly TEN TIMES LESS money than what Vercel has raised. Vercel's recent price increases and the overall push to move more of React to the server (which makes more money for Vercel) starts making a lot of sense in this context...

OpenAI: We're going to run out of cash any day now Also OpenAI: Let's do a complete rewrite of our relatively new frontend in a new framework for seemingly no reason This is probably a drop in the bucket but a rewrite rarely makes sense from a business standpoint

Great representation of the AI hype cycle vs. reality at #madebygoogle2024 today: "You’ve heard all the empty promises of AI that doesn’t work? Today we give you something that actually works" ...live demo proceeds to spectacularly fail THREE TIMES IN A ROW

Excellent work from the Google Search AI as always
