amplified.dev is a single-page essay arguing developers are amplified, not automated. One HTML file, inline CSS, vanilla JS. No frameworks. We wrote 11 checks for it. Checks don't have to protect code — they can protect taste. Here's what ours look like.

Developers amplified, not automated

Every time a layer of the work became infrastructure, the role didn't shrink. AI is the next layer in it.

Berlin, it’s meetup time! Join us for the dltHub Community Meetup, an evening of real-world demos, lessons learned, and conversations with builders. 📍 Rosebud, Berlin 📆 Feb 17 | 18:00 – 21:00 Curious about what we’re building at dltHub? Come by 👋

TLDR; we launched on ProductHunt! After months packed with community-driven features our AI memory tool @cognee.bsky.social has evolved to new heights. Finally AI agents meet the memory they deserve - structured, accurate, and reliable - in 5 lines of code.

Meet our own #dlthub Violetta at the upcoming #IcebergSummit with #Python workshop in SF April 9th

Danica Fine@thedanicafine.bsky.social · 2y ago

🚨 New Video Alert! 🚨 Did you know we're having workshops at #icebergSummit? 😱 Hear from Kevin Liu about the workshop he's putting together with Violetta Mishechkina and Rushan Jiang on getting started with #apacheIceberg using #python.

🚀 In the last 6 months we have seen early adopters in the dlt community take advantage of AI code editors such as Cursor. Check our initial assistants and building blocks for custom workflows such as Anthropic MCP servers for dlt on the recently launched hub.continue.dev/dlthub from @continue.dev 🚀

dlthub (dltHub)

data load tool (dlt) is an open source Python library that makes data loading easy 🛠️

hub.continue.dev

dlt+ Cache is an example of offline processing that I think is going to become a data engineering + analytics standard. @mmullins.coginiti.co has shown similar ideas for Coginiti on processing Iceberg data and caching it locally.

Data teams don’t move fast. They wait. They wait for dbt runs. They wait for queries. They wait to see if something breaks. Stop testing in production. Start testing like an engineer. 🔗 dlthub.com/blog/staging #databs #dataengineering

Got a demo of this today, super cool stuff Reminded me of this www.datacouncil.ai/talks/proces...

We at dltHub are releasing the initial two features of dlt+, our framework for running dlt in production, in early access: 👉dlt+ Project: A declarative YAML collaboration point for teams 👉dlt+ Cache: A database-like compute layer for developing, testing & running transformations

Thanks for letting me hang in your NYC office @aaazzam.bsky.social

Going to NYC again this week ! Ping me if you want to grab coffee.

Our co-founder @datancoff.ee is wondering whether Python can compete with DuckDB and Spark as the "query engine" for Iceberg open lakehouses. Can it? tower.dev/blog/buildin...

Anyone else thinking that the emergence of the MCP server layer on top of Claude signals that LLMs are coming to data engineering for real? Who's interacting with a MCP server & agent framework already? Any hot takes? github.com/punkpeye/awe...

This is what I think could be possible with dlt and AI. I basically did this with the Bluesky API docs and the dlt docs and built a new connector.

I've had a crazy few days with my advent calendar of code, looking at Tobiko's SQLMesh with @duckdb.org. Yesterday, I mentioned in my post that I needed to bring in some data from @bsky.app's HTTP endpoints, and I was going to try using dltHub. davidsj.substack.com/p/dlt-windsu...

Great things happen when you strip away unnecessary complexity. analytics stacks are overbuilt—ETL, warehouses, and fragmented 🔹 Automating metadata management w/ code/AI 🔹 Connecting to databases and data lakes declaratively 🔹 Defining BI as code+Using dltHub/Evidence 🔗 shorturl.at/V8SZ1

kinda admire the boldness of a blog on 'robust generative AI agents' w/no actual solutions to make these robust Lots of monitoring & observability to quantify how flaky your system is, but still just a "prompt and pray" approach to having LLMs execute tasks aws.amazon.com/blogs/machin...

In this post, we dive into the architectural considerations and development lifecycle practices that can help you build robust, scalable, and secure intelligent agents.

Sneaked in watching a Broadway show - Hadestown - on the trip.

Was pretty exhausted emotionally by a great work week in SF. Looking for 2h at the creativity inside MoMa NYC today (including seeing studying this Rauschenberg in person after only seeing digital + print copies of it before) was all I needed to revitalise.

More on the ML data infra side - we at dltHub are doing an event with LanceDB, Dosu & Continue in SF today. Come by if you are around. Our own Akela will be talking about "Building smarter agents with AI-ready data" lu.ma/y3sh3tpj
