Spent some time in Belgium and The Netherlands for a few weeks. Some people come back with clothes or designer bags, others come back with fancy chocolates. Not me though.

For me, it's all about the Paprika Pringles. We only have garbage flavors like Philly Cheesesteak.

Watching this video about “coffee badging” just to figure out what the hell it was.

I’m confused. When did news orgs just recording videos of people on laptop screens instead of just playing the video.

That said, it's funny that the "App Trends" say Professional Hacker since I work at @hacker0x01.bsky.social, and I'm nowhere near as smart as the researchers on that platform. 🫠

I _really_ like Raycast, but I don't need a #wrapped for everything.

Talk about high stress. Imagine being an engineer (distinguished or not) who is pulled onto the stage for one of the most anticipated #awsreinvent keynotes.

Even with him knowing about it ahead of time. 😱

Complexity is a given but not all is created equal.

Also one of my favorite new images to share to the team

How about the Thinkpad Twist? 🌪️

Don't tempt me with a good time vendor!

And Luma, a video generation model.

Nice to have options I guess

Talking a lot about AI models. AWS already have a lot of the main ones. But Swami is leading to announcing a new one...

And it's one called Poolside. I guess that's cool 🤷‍♂️

Swami doesn't realize all good developers work early mornings or late nights because our days are tied up in meetings

"You're our kind of people" Jennifer Tejada

I translated this to: "We like waking you up in the middle of the night with a loud, stressful sound"

I guess we're stuck on AI now. At least the first half was exciting.

#reinvent announcement: Aurora DSQL - looks interesting and expensive.

"This transaction has 10 statements, which is pretty typical..." Clearly Matt's has an idealized view of apps. I'm more used to 100+ statements in a transaction. 🫠

A lot of "Yes, and" vibes here from Matt at #reinvent

Right?😅

Spending a couple years in the military, all I can think about is some type of variety of this poster I saw at least a dozen times a day

Solid discount for a solid book. Passing this note around to my colleagues at the office too!

Thanks @alexdebrie.bsky.social!

Yes, let me send you a WhatsApp message to sell you an IPv4 block. Totally legit.

It's always weird to me that LinkedIn pretends that I'm not already a premium subscriber and recommends upgrading my plan to the one recruiters use.

I know you know what I use LinkedIn for Microsoft and it's not recruiting. Ever. Just stop.

Like many others, I use Cloudflare's free tier for personal domains. It's great. However, last night, I got 32(!) emails in two hours telling me about an SSL/TLS upgrade on a *single* host in my account.

The worst part is I can't even determine how to turn those notifications off! 🙅‍♂️
