A technology leader told me today they are not getting as many people to try #ai as they would like because engineers don't blindly trust the LLM.

When you #selfhost, you will never have any problems with #aws being down.
All you have to do is:
- Ensure you have a decent power supply
- Have your own servers
- Be able to troubleshoot networking issues at 3AM because your electronic lock won't release and your child can't get in the house

I noticed a small bug in DynamoDB clustering implementation and I think I fixed it.
Shipped to prod already.
Going to make a coffee and will check back if everything is working.

I just saw someone wrote that developers might feel more productive with AI...
But everyone also insists that they are that one exception who is actually good at multitasking.
