In my experience, both Claude and codex are way too good these days that I don’t have to selectively create a prompt with just the right files. I just say something like “look at t…

I am curious, what kind of work do you use Claude for that sometimes requires hours of working. In my case, I have never seen it go off for more than 10 mins and even that is very …

I had the same thought. TBH there is nothing in those individual sentences that read like AI but when you read them all together I could see it too. I dunno what it is, only way I …

Absolutely. What I had hoped was a proper 75% layout with proper full sized up and down arrow keys.

My introduction to Feynman was more from other science communicators either quoting him or retelling some story about him and initially it formed a mental picture in my mind that h…

us-west-2 is indeed very large, but will still not be able to take a full failover from us-east-1

Hi there, I was looking to get a NAS that I can just install and not have to worry about maintenance too much and senility was at the top of the list. If not synology what would yo…

May be a “fast follow”? Right after launch of the “MVP”?

Do you use or have used MySQL in the past?

One benefit is that it makes these operations lazy. There are no intermediate lists created when you call a map on a stream. If map were a method in a list, it would need to return…

From what I recall, Reddit uses AWS extensively. Could they not have replaced RabbitMQ with SQS? You get the near unlimited horizontal scalability, extremely good uptime, guarantee…

The way you have expressed this, I am borrowing it for myself. Many times i run into these kind of situations and I fail to explain why doing something like this is frustrating and…

Interesting. I have used free marker. Pretty happy with it in general. But inability to mutate collections is an annoyance. I will checkout blueprint. A zero dependency library is …

A while ago, I had attempted to do it the Rust style with a Result type in Java (where it is called Data oriented programming) and the result is not great. I was fighting a losing …

They thought Alexa will enable users to buy more from Amazon just by voice. But most users turned out like me. I would not spend a single dollar on Amazon without actually seeing t…

Hmmm, thinking aloud, Oracle?

Whoa! Mind sharing the company?

I use the dedicated app but IntelliJ ultimate bundles datagrip into the ide too.

If you have the license for it, it is hard to beat Datagrip from Jetbrains. Support for just about any database and also integrated support for AI/Copilot making it much easier to …

Do you already have some common templates ready to be used somewhere?

I know this does not answer the question for non-Amazon folks but the internal Amazon metrics portal UI is so functional and dense that it was a joy to use. If someone from AWS Clo…

Interesting that you choose to do it manually. Do you do this as a transaction so that the indexes are always updated. If not, how do you handle partial failures?

Not really. I have done multiple AWS pricing and costing exercises while launching services and there was never a direction from the VP to sell it lower than what it costs to build…

Correct, you lose that ordering but then the only other option is to retry indefinitely. You have to think through what your error handling looks like as is the case with any appli…

I agree on the head of the line blocking problem and that not everyone needs the per partition ordering. For that I have started to use SQS FIFO with the message grouping key being…
