One underrated AWS advantage: email can stay in your stack. SES is easy to turn on. The hard part is everything after that - domains, DNS, reputation, bounces, complaints, suppression lists, alerts. Email on AWS is simple. Operating it isn't.
A lot of teams don’t leave SES because AWS is bad at email. They leave because SES tooling is bad.
That creates a false choice:
1) migrate to SendGrid/Postmark/Resend/Mailgun
2) build your own control plane
There should be a third option. SendOps is ours.
Hot take: don't switch email providers just because the dashboard is prettier.
If you're already on AWS, SES is usually the right default. Keep delivery in your stack. Fix the operational gap separately. Infrastructure choice and dashboard quality are different problems.
In a world where code is written by agents, having WYSIWYG editors for email makes no sense. That's why we built https://t.co/BZT2cn754W templates: From Git to your own SES account (+ everything you need to send emails!)
I’ve got Markbase invites if you want one. I’ve been using it to share memory between Claude and Claude Code. It’s awesome. #claude

If you use multiple AI tools, we'd love to hear your feedback on Markbase.
Markbase lets agents move context and memory across providers and tools, transparently. #ai#claude#openai
HackerNews has changed so much. These days it feels like a grumpy and hostile place full of trigger happy people ready to jump on anything that doesn't fit their narrow field of interests.
It is sad to see it like this. @hackernews
I really want to pay @AnthropicAI to host my agents so I can build my SRE workflow there.
Unfortunately, hosted agents with 98% uptime are not good enough for a casual weekend project, let alone an SRE workflow.
We used to get 1 or 2 vulnerability reports every month. Most of those were not very relevant. Now we get 1 or 2 every week. These are AI-generated, look very legitimate, but rarely have very valid disclosures in them.
As a SOC2 Type 2 compliant company, we have to log every one of those reports, respond, investigate, and triage. The volume of work has just gone up.
That's why we built Fortworx: An intelligent, security-focused spam filter for your security inbox. It accepts emails, monitors them, logs them, creates an audit trail, and assesses their validity, and responds automatically to the reporters with you as a human in the loop.

If you can vibecode a tool in a weekend, so can other developers.
You can sell such a tool either to non-developers, or you better think about a different idea.
