I am drafting a blog post about how to connect the dots around concepts such as agent orchestration, specs, tasks lists, planning mode, autonomous agents, todo lists, sub-agents, and more. I am kidding.

It looks like "files" are the "new database" in generative AI (coding tools) land. I am not sure how this is going to scale but it seems to be working for now. Maybe there will be an NFS renaissance in the coming months. Who knows. 💁♂️

The state of social media (from my perspective): [ X ] : a s*it show [ BlueSky ] : the place where you talk about what a s*it show X is [ LinkedIn ] : "I just want to be Facebook for pros" I miss good ol' Twitter. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

Very interesting (and on point) article on the state of coding agents with respect to their prices and costs. I love that more people are starting to speak the truth about the current situation. ethanding.substack.com/p/ai-subscri... TL/DR (from the article itself):
On one hand I feel the world move too fast. And then I see these things were people still think “the cloud is just someone else’s computer”. And it suddenly feels 2015 all over again.
Post on HN about Serverless WebRTC... First comment: "This isn't serverless. It's just using someone else's servers" ... ummm ... well duh 🤦🏻♂️

The electronics version of “it works on my machine”. We need a Docker for cords.
I have had this happen to me many times and every time it’s the fucking worst. “What do you mean this doesn’t work when use that cord but works when I use this one??” Often hours or days into debugging a problem.
Blown away by your response to Kiro. 100k+ joined our preview in week one, more than we expected. We've added a waitlist. To those waiting – thank you for your patience. Using Kiro? Your feedback means everything. Read the full update on our blog: bit.ly/4o31OHE

Remote. Debugging. For. Lambda. This is the biggest change in Lambda since microsecond billing. You can set a breakpoint in VSCode on your machine, execute the function in the cloud, inspect its state, and step through the remote process. This is yuuuge! aws-news.com/article/2025...

I will take "not terrible" from @quinnypig.com ... How do they say? "It means a lot coming from you" ?

Time to do more to promote Amazon Q’s CLI tool than AWS Marketing has all year: Add this cursed function to your shell profile: fukken() { qchat chat "$*"; } Then skip the dumb keywords and just ask the damn question: fukken tell me how many S3 buckets I have Yes, it works. Yes, it’s glorious.
