It’s unbelievable how much of an impact LLMs have on my daily work. I‘m definitely 10x more productive and the quality of my work also improved as these tools help me to reduce my deficiencies. Nope, they don’t replace thinking (yet), but all the undifferentiated things which slow down productivity.

We may still get a generified version of errors.As in #golang's standard library! 🤞 github.com/golang/go/is...

Use TouchID for sudo on macOS: - cd /etc/pam.d && cp sudo_local.template sudo_local - uncomment the line in sudo_local

Nice, more management events. In EventBridge (receiving CloudTrail events), we call those non-mutating events which customers and partners use to subscribe, filter and quickly take action. Common use cases (obviously) threat detection (S3 bucket scans anyone?) and identifying noisy polling code.

I think *most* errors should default to returning a "safe" error message that doesn't include any raw input data or sensitive data about the host system, and then add an optional field/method that has more detailed info that might be sensitive (likely only used during debugging).

💯 Best conference 🎤🫳

Lots of cool innovation happening in the area of logs(tructured systems) #LazyLog #SpecLog #SD25

Fantastic insight by @hillelwayne.com #SD25

Only at #SD25 Just.BRILLIANT!

Every day, we wake up with horrible news what humans are capable of doing. So, it’s easy to miss the MIND BENDING research, understanding the fundamentals of our universe, and the innovation coming out of this for society. Thank you, Thea. MUST WATCH talk #SD25

Three talks in, and the key theme this year seems to be „Simplicity“ (reminds me of @werner.social‘s last re:Invent talk about #Simplexity) Couldn’t agree more 👍 #SD25

As always, highly inspirational and insightful talk by @dominiktornow.bsky.social And thx for including and calling out one of my favorite papers 🙏 His presentation skills are TED talk level 🤯

And a proof to myself that I made it here…finally, after 2y of struggle to attend…still feels surreal 🙏 #SystemsDistributed Finally meeting the legends @joran.tigerbeetle.com @dominiktornow.bsky.social and the amazing Tigerbeetle crew!

The attention to detail and love the crew puts into this conference is next level. Already my favorite conference! Let’s go #TigerStyle 🚀🚀🚀

En route to Amsterdam #SystemsDistributed25 Third attempt to attend, this time it will happen 😁 @joran.tigerbeetle.com

You know my answer 😁

I've set this up once with Terraform to get notifications about changes in my AWS organization's core structure, e.g. updating SCPs or adding/removing member accounts. Really helps me sleep a lot better 🥱

LOL, after the great success of Anna Concurrenina, the director of Jepsen is back with another hit for the whole family 😆 Should be fun (as always)

Two awesome new feature for AWS automation today! 1⃣ All AWS API definitions are now publicly available on GitHub (aws-news.com/article/2025...) and 2⃣ Invoice summaries can now be programmatically retrieved (aws-news.com/article/2025...).

Three Trail of Bits engineers audited core Go cryptography for a month and found only one low-sev security issue... in unsupported Go+BoringCrypto! 🍾 Years of efforts on testing, limiting complexity, safe APIs, and readability have paid off! ✨ Yes I am taking a victory lap. No I am not sorry. 🏆

Thanks to AWS's Sergey Melnik, as well as HN commenters matashii and Ants Aasma, we now know that Long Fork in PostgreSQL clusters is caused by a disagreement between primaries and secondaries on the order in which transactions become visible […]

Okay, this is big. AWS Lambda can now send logs directly to S3 or Kinesis Firehose. This makes logs SO MUCH more sensible and useful. Also, integrations with 3rd party vendors (Splunk, anyone?) become easier and cheaper. I see many, many use cases for this feature. buff.ly/F9RVX6g

That's a really great post on Flink's watermarking semantics, by @rmoff.net. Also touching on the notorious idle Kafka source partition issue, which is biting pretty much everyone when doing windowed aggregations from a Kafka topic for the first time.

👋 @jorandirkgreef.bsky.social All, Joran is founder and CEO of @tigerbeetle.com, one of my favorite open source projects. It’s an OLTP financial ledger DB written in Zig. They post some of the most interesting content, too. You should definitely follow both accounts!
