What if AWS Lambda could remember?
The new Resonate TypeScript SDK runs stateful computations on stateless infrastructure (AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, GCP Functions)
Coming soon
If you’re building serverless apps, I’d love to get your thoughts before launch

Hot take: Your application doesn't crash enough
At Resonate, we’re taking Crash-Only Software to the extreme:
Every time a computation takes a step, we restart from scratch
Embrace the chaos of distributed systems
Simplify the recovery with Micro Restarts

If, like me, you've been itching to have a poke around in the API traffic from Claude Code to see how it works under the hood... Mario Zechner built a delightful tool for doing exactly that simonwillison.net/2025/Jun/2/c...

I've been thinking for a while it would be interesting to run some kind of HTTP proxy against the Claude Code CLI app and take a peek at how it …

As someone trained as a trade economist, it is my duty to share the 1929-1933 Kindleberger Spiral, showing the month-month decline in global trade due to the combined factors of the (global) Great Depression and retaliatory tariffs. Smooth Hawley is implemented mid-June 1930.

Intermittent computing, that is, computing in low energy environments, shares many concerns and objectives with cloud computing
Both recognize that interruptions (crash-stop failures) are inevitable and both aim for forward progress

I can now run a GPT-4 class model on my laptop

The new Llama 3.3 70B is a striking example of the huge efficiency gains we've seen in the last two years

the blog post writeup of this is so good eieio.games/blog/writing...
how do you all remember every UUID? I find it really hard. so I wrote them all down on every uuid dot com
the list has fast search across all 2^122 values (so you can find your favorites) - hoping to add some social features like "trending UUIDs" soon!
