I’m no hardware engineer but watching the really nerdy hardware talks at re:Invent are really fun.
I’ve been radio silent on attending re:Invent this year, I was scheming the surprise some friends from the hospital. Mission accomplished last night at the Wizard of Oz at the Sphere. (Amazing.) Best swag is the AWS BuilderCards deck to go with the @jeffbarr.bsky.social card he gave me last year. 😀
Friendsgiving with friends of over 30 years. One is a high school English teacher. Of course AI in homework writing came up. Her: “You can tell. You get to know their voice on low stakes writing. Then they suddenly know how to use a semicolon and the word “moreover”, no freaking way.” 🤣
This CVS can’t be stopped. Methinks the pharmacist is an OSU grad.
The whole Columbus X’s out any “M”’s before the Ohio St v Michigan game is serious business.
Don't call it a comeback! I honestly can't a remember a situation where they reversed something like this. aws.amazon.com/blogs/devops...

Stayed up to watch the Las Vegas Grand Prix. Sometimes with late races I’ll record them but have to avoid the internet to not see who won. Looks like that somehow worked in reverse this time. 😂 #F1
It’s 8:42pm on a Saturday night and I’m watching a documentary on YouTube about Python. Let it never be said that I don’t know how to party any more. youtu.be/GfH4QL4VqJ0

It is funny, I am sitting here building AWS Lambda functions in Rust using Claude Code and I feel like I am really programming again. I think after all these years I was getting bored with directly cutting code, since the vast majority of it were things I had written before.
So the Bengals challenged a non scoring play that resulted in a Bears TD. Like, they didn’t score, and OUR challenge got them a TD. This is the most Bengals thing I have ever seen. 40+ years of fandom and they continue to surprise.
This is the greatest baseball game I have ever seen. #WorldSeries
Press release is now out, the last thing I worked on at the hospital. 😀 www.nationwidechildrens.org/newsroom/new...

My lava lamp is giving off some real preserved Xenomorph energy here today.
My son could care less about baseball but he loves himself a map. I told him to look up the MLB blackout region map and he’s enthralled. “What did Iowa do to someone?”
The Siri ui with the glow around the edge of the phone is delightful. The service itself… notsomuch.
I am curious to see what memory bugs remain practical on iOS with MIE and typed allocators. The fact that memory tags are enforced even in kernel access to userspace memory is going to make use-after-free and buffer overflows extremely hard. security.apple.com/blog/memory-...

As a lifelong Bengals fan our best player continues to be the Cleveland Browns.
A dream would be take a single lap around Monza in a F1 car. I would be screaming the entire way around.
I finally took the mechanical keyboard plunge and I feel equal parts amazing and insufferable at the same time.
Huge game in Columbus today. The flyover F-16s just screamed over my house, two minutes later we see them on tv over the Shoe.
Was behind a 1990s Toyota Celica with historical plates on it at a light. If you need me I’ll be over there in the corner crying.
I swear I’ve been fighting the same OpenSSL version mismatch collision for the last 30 freaking years.
Is this like the audio book "reading" equivalent of programming? Kiro is humming along while I focus on the more important task right now: lunch.
Left Skyline coney with sword: New chicken chili. Right Skyline coney: Classic regular chili. Classic is still the best, but chicken was solid.
Man talk about a trip down memory lane here. It is crazy how those boot screens are still stored somewhere in the old gray matter, they were instantly recognizable.

I love the course they had for the Paris final of the Tour de France. Also love that Wout won the stage. #TourDeFrance
Dark room. Dark mode. Prince of Darkness playing. (RIP Ozzy) Fighting with Linux. If you transported me here from 30 years ago he would nod approvingly.
