For the last 2 years I have been tracking a generational change in the nature of software development, and I think I've finally decided where all of this turmoil is going to end up. It's good news, but not for everybody. https://seldo.com/posts/we-are-all-product-engineers-now/
Journalism and teaching are some of the most valuable yet thankless jobs in our society. I want to thank everyone who wakes up in the morning excited to teach others or inform their fellow humans for terrible pay.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.
Excited to open source Strands Agents today! LLMs have gotten so good at reasoning and tool use that building model-driven agents with Strands is easy AND powerful
Models + Tools = 🧬

+1 on this: The US stands out relative to other country because of decades of big-time investment in scientific infrastructure. That is why the US won on science and attracting talent.
Trump is dismantling that infrastructure now, but it has never existed in other countries to the same degree.
Pet peeve: I hate how often ppl claim “all the researchers will just move to Europe/Canada!” You vastly under-estimate how little money there is there vs the USA- and unless that changes ASAP this loss is just going to decimate global science, full stop. 🧪🔭
AWS Amplify announced the new feature of Compute Role earlier this week, and I updated my website to leverage this new feature and got rid of some credentials store as plain text: glucn.com/posts/2025-0...#aws#security
Having just wrestled with this and learning how to use overrides on L1 constructs, this comes as a nice surprise! #AWSCDK L2 Construct for AWS AppSync Events API!! Whoop whoop! aws.amazon.com/about-aws/wh...
From a person w/ intimate knowledge of the FAA's technical systems. To say they're concerned is an understatement. These are systems you do not fuck around with. Even small, subtle changes, can ripple through systems which all feed into each other, and keep planes in the sky, freight being delivered
Here’s a great example of these idiots having no idea what they’re cutting. Why would the U.S. help Sri Lanka mitigate the effects of climate change? Because natural disasters are brutal and sea level rise will devastate the country. If we don’t help, China will.
Apple TV Plus is free to stream this weekend
"It’s a chance to binge Severance and other shows before renewing an Apple TV subscription to watch upcoming seasons." 📺 🔥
Astro website deployed with AWS Amplify using GitHub repo.
Now, every time I do a git push, the code gets automatically deployed.
Amplify is an interesting serverless solution to deploy React applications on the cloud. The best part is that it offers an integrated CDN globally.
I will be on stage at re:Invent this year, partnering up again with @focusotter.bsky.social to catch you up on all things AWS AppSync. From GraphQL, to real-time events, and generative AI, we’ll dive deep into this year’s releases and most exciting capabilities. You won’t want to miss it. Join us!
Slide creation/editing seems ripe for disruption. Why can't I say "Create a placeholder for five 1-inch by 1-inch icons and space them evenly across the slide horizontally"?
First post on BlueSky. Let's go! I'm really excited about our 2 latest feature releases for AppSync 🎉 First, AppSync now supports Amazon Bedrock runtime as a data source for GraphQL APIs. Second, AppSync now supports resource sharing of AppSync GraphQL APIs across accounts. Let's dig into it. 1/7
iOS feature request - A second unlock code just for my kids that will allow limited phone calls and texting against an allowlist but offer no other functionality.
One of the biggest missed opportunities of Twitter and thus its copycats like Bluesky & Mastodon is not doing more with the interest graph to build communities as a feature.
A concept similar to subreddits would have been a natural extension. #FinTwit and #BlackTwitter as actual destinations.
"A Florida woman, unable to get an abortion in her state, carried to term a baby who had no kidneys. Deborah Dorbert’s son Milo died in her arms on March 3, shortly after he was born, just as her doctors had predicted he would."
