Huh, both the @nytimes.com and @washingtonpost.com make no mention of this on their front pages. I’m sure it’s simply a minor editorial oversight. www.bbc.com/news/article...

"I sure wish BlueSky had an analytics system so I could find the past week's banger skeets for the @lastweekinaws.com newsletter easter egg." Windsurf, 5 minutes later: "Thank you, come again." shitposting.pictures/EXGcj0FCmGZY

@egonschiele.bsky.social Just sent you a message on LinkedIn of all godforsaken things. You're doing amazing work.

Sorry AWS, this is no longer correct. (EFS Intelligent Tiering does it too; arguably better than S3 does)

Obviously Atlassian is investing heavily in making JIRA slower.

marketing site: We use the same ingredients and brewing process used at our first Frostop Stand back in 1926! ingredients: Carbonated water, High Fructose Corn Sweetener, Pure Cane Sugar, Caramel Color, Natural and artificial flavors, Phosphoric Acid, Sodium Benzoate to preserve freshness

Bought it yesterday. Highly recommend.

Do I know anyone who’s selling Girl Scout cookies?

99.9k BlueSky users can't be wrong.

ChatGPT is FIRST Gemini is FAST Claude is BEST Copilot is PERVASIVE Windsurf is TRANSFORMATIVE Amazon Q DeepSeek is INEXPENSIVE

Don't mind me any, just keeping those busybodies in the AWS & GitHub security teams from getting in my way as I bro down and crush code.

Not kidding: I am attempting to log into Chime. This is in no way scrollable. I give up and admit I cannot solve the puzzle.

Amazon killing Chime is just like when Google killed Reader—if every Reader user spent the product’s entire lifetime wanting to Sparta-kick it into hell.

I will be fixing the AWS service documentation as they increasingly do not show the services working as I imagine they do.

"Amazon Basics James Bond" spends 84 minutes of its 119 minute runtime focusing on Agent "Amazon" Q.

In which someone at an Amazon subsidiary finally gets around to reading their AWS bill.

The next Bond movie will be titled "Time to Die Mister Bond, Handcrafted Artisanal Film Movie for Men – Perfecf Christmas Gift and Funny Realistic Spy Gag, Harmless Entertainment Prank for Kids and Adults, Realistic Vanilla Scent 7.9 Ounce Motion Picture (Pack of 1)"

No, no, no the stupid bastard leopard wasn’t supposed to eat MY face—I gotta make a call…

Facial recognition company CEO loses face:

"100 network interfaces can share a /80" claims AWS's IP address management tool. I no longer wonder why the IPv6 rollout across AWS services has taken this long. 🤦‍♂️
