It's here!! This is the one I have been talking about! AWS Lambda Durable Functions are now officially out. If you want to see a deep dive of this, My buddy Michael Gasch (one of the PMs behind the magic) and I are presenting this on Wednesday. The catalog is getting updated, but watch for CNS380. aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/buil…

@pinskinator @astuyve I’m in my DM with you. How do I quickly see that you’ve replied to an earlier message of mine that is above the visible chat window area?

Using threaded replies in a slack DM is so cursed. Use the block quote and reply in the main feed

@pinskinator @astuyve Nikki you’re completely wrong here. The UX of having to find a threaded reply in a DM sucks (they just aren’t easily noticeable without moving to the Threads page). AJ wins this one.

@chrismunns Sorry to hear Chris - rest up and hope you feel better soon. And thanks for the nudge - so much we can solve with modern medicine, but requires diligence from all of us.

Gents: listen to your body and don’t try to “give it another day” when things aren’t right. I’ve had a minor umbilical hernia for a year. Something changed this week. Left it for two days. Did virtual-doc appt. “Get to ER now”. Admitted. Surgery 24 hours later. Recovering. No fun

Fantastic to see logging for Amazon EventBridge launched! It took a while, but this will make it significantly easier to debug what's happening in your event bus. Congrats to the team!
Dan Ronald@DRo_604

Game changing launch for Amazon EventBridge timed with the New York summit (where EventBridge was launched 6 years ago)! EventBridge now supports logging to CloudWatch, S3, and Firehose, giving you a new level of visibility across your applications. aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/moni…

@chrismunns You using Claude Code? Running it in VS Code in integration mode is killer.

✅Asked Claude to generate a doc that explains the full AWS Marketplace flow while pointing out which APIs/endpoints get used where. ✅Asked it write Lambda functions for handling those APIs, with place holders for custom business logic. ✅Asked for Terraform deploy script

I am super excited to be joining this incredible team🤩, let's build! 🚀 Who is Resend? We are changing the way you do email, built for developers, to reach humans instead of spam folders. We have both transactional and marketing packages.
Zeno Rocha@zenorocha

I'm so excited to welcome Rehan van der Merwe to the team. @der_rehan is one of the few AWS Heroes worldwide and knows a lot about cloud, serverless, and DevOps. Before @resend, he was part of the Infra team at MessageBird. He's also our first hire in South Africa 🌍

Upgrading from 18GB to 64GB MBP is such a massive quality of life improvement. I've gone from always feeling constrained around what I open or leave open, to instead feeling an unconstrained abundance. All the Firefox tabs. All the Docker containers. All the IDEs.

I told investors from the first day in 2017 that it was going to take a very long time, but once it started working, we would be impossible to catch. 4.5 years to launch our first APIs, +2.5 for the full platform, and +1 to now be one of the fastest-growing software vendors.

Pretty cool to see @stedi on this list after building for so many years.

Our research team @safetycli found a NPM package published by a large payment processor ($80B/year) that leaks credit card details to an ngrok endpoint. An unfortunate example of how a legitimate actor can compromise your software supply chain. getsafety.com/blog-posts/pay…

@jmwind We’re hiring dev interns @safetycli. If they’re interested, they can email my first name at safetycli.com and please have them mention Canada intern in the subject (we get so much hiring spam!).

Who's hiring software dev interns in Canada? My son said that most of his class doesn't have placements this summer. The best way to grow builders is to keep them here and get mentoring. They are practically free with the federal student wage subsidy.

I’ve had three separate sales calls this week from @SeamlessAI. This despite me having received confirmation of do-not-contact from them. Where are we at with the laws around repercussions for this? If I have documented evidence of them contacting me after opt-out, what can I do?
