TIL some folks in AWS pronounce AMIs as “Aim-ees”

I dont think I like that.

Oh, we're talking about Bedrock now. How novel. I never heard of this service. 🙄

TRN3 UltraServers are now available for the 6 companies that don't just use Anthropic's Claude 🥳

Matt Garman: "We get a lot of grief on product naming at #AWS" as a joke.

No, no, no, Matt, it's not a joke. Your product naming is awful. Please fix it.

#reinvent

Matt Garman's #reinvent keynote starts and the #AWS announcements blog blows up.

Feels like they may have spoiled some of Matt's thunder

Matt Garman: "We're streaming this to Fortnight for the first time..."

Why though? What market are you going for with that?

#aws #re:invent

Of course I know it's to make me buy bad $9 chai but I refuse.

Las Vegas is somewhere I only goto for #AWS #re:invent and I'm always amazed about some things.

For example, my hotel room doesn't have a kettle or way to warm water but I have a scale. 🫠

This most certainly isn't a rectangular cookie #AWS #aws:reinvent

#aws pre:Invent took a while to get going. Looks like #re:Invent is coming out swinging with announcements like EKS Capabilities.

Talk about making life easier. I hate managing ArgoCD. This seems like it'll lessen the burden quite a bit!

Oh good. I was just worried that education was too accessible and didn’t cause enough decades of debt.

A website snapshot of Everything Bagel Pringles and Philly Cheesesteak Pringles.

A package of Paprika Pringles

Spent some time in Belgium and The Netherlands for a few weeks. Some people come back with clothes or designer bags, others come back with fancy chocolates. Not me though.

For me, it's all about the Paprika Pringles. We only have garbage flavors like Philly Cheesesteak.

Let's be honest folks, this should have been re:Invent's top announcement: aws.amazon.com/about-aws/wh...

Watching this video about “coffee badging” just to figure out what the hell it was.

I’m confused. When did news orgs just recording videos of people on laptop screens instead of just playing the video.

That said, it's funny that the "App Trends" say Professional Hacker since I work at @hacker0x01.bsky.social, and I'm nowhere near as smart as the researchers on that platform. 🫠

I _really_ like Raycast, but I don't need a #wrapped for everything.

That’s true! The flexibility and power of GitLab CI is superior in many ways.

The except, perhaps, is Gitaly which is great.

I like GitLab and all, don’t get me wrong. But also I would die on the hill that GitLab does everything “ok” at best.

Duo is OK at best but it’s miles behind all of the competition. It’s also not their claim to fame.

GitLab Names Bill Staples as New CEO All Remote—GitLab Inc., (NASDAQ: GTLB), the most comprehensive AI-powered DevSecOps platform, announced Bill Staples was named CEO and a member of the

New GitLab CEO.

“GitLab…the most comprehensive AI-powered DevSecOps platform…”

Surely we can’t say that GitLab is more known as being “AI-powered” than just being a normal DevSecOps platform.

Talk about high stress. Imagine being an engineer (distinguished or not) who is pulled onto the stage for one of the most anticipated #awsreinvent keynotes.

Even with him knowing about it ahead of time. 😱

"Codebase is so big that no one knows whats going on"

I've never seen that before 🙄
