Passed AWS certified Cloud Practitioner exam with 881/1000 score. @awscloud @awsdevelopers @AWSCloudIndia huge credits go to AI for preparing my exam materials 🙌

@claudeai @AnthropicAI @SpaceX they will put grok into space ai dara crnters and then pull your plug 🥴🥴🥴💀💀💀

We’ve agreed to a partnership with @SpaceX that will substantially increase our compute capacity. This, along with our other recent compute deals, means that we’ve been able to increase our usage limits for Claude Code and the Claude API.

@Saboo_Shubham_ then? hoe the do sales?

@housecor i coded same app for aws 🥴

I used to Google for bash commands. Now I just tell AI to do it.

@AJamesMcCarthy @elonmusk that too with non nikon mirroless where autofocus is top notch 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Mark my words, I will take a photo like this in my lifetime. You might, too.

System Design Round at Anthropic: You are running an LLM in production that costs $0.40 per query. At 100,000 queries a day that is $40,000 a day. You check your logs and find 60,000 of those queries are users asking slight variations of the same 200 questions. Your model is generating a fresh answer every single time. How do you cut your inference cost by 60% without the user ever feeling like they got a cached or stale response?

@santtiagom_ loosely coupled architecture + cloud 🌧️ 🌧️ 🌧️

how to scale an app from zero to millions of users

@steipete @sama whats backend for this? expressjs streaming or python async io?

brb calling @sama

@romaindewolff many non tech vibe code builders will experience this in their lifetime but loss in millions not thousands.

I almost killed my company on Friday. $90,000. One Azure bill. Gone. Let me tell you what happened because I think founders need to hear this. We built an amazing document intelligence system at Whisperit. It analyzes our customers' files: PDFs, Word docs, scanned documents, using OCR. It works beautifully and user love it. But we had a bug. A small email with a zip file. Inside the zip, a PDF. Some weird edge case that created an infinite loop in our code. The virtual machine would crash, restart, and try to reprocess the same document. Again. And again. And again. We pay more than one cent per page processed. You can imagine what happened next. I saw the graph and my stomach dropped. An exponential spike. The kind of curve you want to see on your revenue chart (!!) not your cloud bill. The forecast for next month said $400,000+. I thought: this must be a mistake. Emergency 🚨. Check everything. It wasn't a mistake. The worst part? We had a warning. Back in November we had a $25K unusual spike. We fixed it. Added upload limits. I thought we were safe. But I never set a spending cap on Azure. Never set up alerts for unusual usage. I knew I should. I just didn't do it. I went through every stage: Denial → "this can't be right" Anger → screaming at myself Shame → feeling small, really small Tears → first time in a long time I cried that evening. Not because of the money, because I imagined having to close Whisperit. My team. Everything we built. Gone because of one missing setting and my stupidity. The week had been incredible. New version shipping. Lots of new users. Sales going well. Migration going well. Growing the team responsibly. And then Friday hit like a truck. Remember my last post about mistakes? Yeah. We're still making them. Bigger ones. $90,000 is the price of a NICE car. Paid for a bug and a missing checkbox. Here's what I'm doing RIGHT NOW so this never happens again: 1. Hard spending limits on every cloud service — no exceptions 2. Alerts at 50%, 80%, 100% of expected spend 3. Circuit breakers in our processing pipeline — if a document fails 3 times, it stops 4. Weekly cloud cost review — not monthly, weekly 5. Every API endpoint gets a budget ceiling If you're a founder reading this: Go set your spending limits. Today. Right now. Before your next meeting. Before your next coffee. It takes 10 minutes and it could save your company. We move fast. That's our superpower. But speed without guardrails is a bomb with a timer. I know what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I really hope this one doesn't kill me. Still standing. Barely. Building. 🚀

@sweatystartup to me it looks like ai models companies will now deliberately put guardrails not to perform better than coders to save software industry

All the AI hype I’ve yet to see a single person actually show me how they are replacing employees with AI. Show me!!!!!!

@davidgu use ipv6 cidr instead all these zole

Did you know AWS has a quota for quota increase requests???

@LuizaJarovsky thats why some people implemented heartbeats to awake it every few mins

Unpopular opinion: AI is NOT conscious.

@sama looks like you watched recent video of Mo Bitar on token budgets

we want to build tools to augment and elevate people, not entities to replace them.

@RVCJ_FB but he cant control politics on his platform like twitter 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫🥴😂😂😂

Parag Agrawal!!

@AishwaryaDevv 1 day of vibe building needs 6 months of seo and 1 year of sem

everyone flexing “I built this with AI in 24 hrs” cool now get 10 real users who actually pay that’s the hard part

@fromcodetocloud means 50+ cursors ide?

GitHub Actions wins for: - Teams < 10 people - Simple projects - Speed of getting started But once you have 50+ engineers + SOC2/HIPAA? Jenkins eats. Agree ?

@awsdevelopers suggestion — build a place in aws console where all active instances from all services including region listed with link to reach the instance

We want AWS to be for all builders 🧑‍💻👨‍💻👩‍💻 What pain points are you experiencing building with AWS today? We are listening

@_dshakti minoxidil at this stage absolutely works not later.

Stop believing in hair growth serum startups. If the son of the richest man in India is suffering from hair fall issue, then no serum can fix this.

@slimjimmy i was using this to build electron kinda html app in vb

kids these days don't know how good we had it

@lakshyalark edge server issue. must be cache 🥴😂😂

4 trillion dollar company btw

@hridoyreh you think he is 18 years moron so that he didn’t invested earnings to multiply or retire early 😂😂😂

This guy is a software engineer with 18 years of experience. Now, working at McDonald's. One day, his company decided 2 AI guys could do what his team of 12 used to do. As a result, got laid off. He sent 100+ applications, but didn't get any jobs. One HR rep literally told him, "CS degree is useless now". Now he's flipping burgers while grinding through rejections. He knows 200 developers in the same boat. And the executives who made this call? They are fine, they always are...
