Most coding agents miss bugs your IDE already knows about.

They write code, assume it works, and move on.

Kiro reads IDE diagnostics in real time.
Fixes issues before review.

Results:
• 29 percent fewer build and test runs
• Feedback in under 35ms

Hey AWS Folks!

It's about an hour before Session Reservations Open.

Deep Breath. We will get through this.

My advice:
Pick Workshops over Sessions. Sessions are recorded. You can watch them AFTERWARD at 2x Speed. 😃
Lightning Talks can be AMAZING. They are NOT recorded. Speaks tend to be less guarded.

Have a list of your MUST SEE sessions, go after those first. Have a second and third choice, in case #1 is already filled.

Leave time for walking the Expo, meeting new folks, visiting the certification lounge, eating and testing.

It's a marathon, not a sprint.

Lastly: Have Fun! https://t.co/nNfQndxdU0

What if you sometimes just need to expose some simple API endpoints on #AWS without authentication, routing or throttling? For this use-case AWS Lambda Function URL could be a feature worth exploring: https://t.co/6BaZmaHe6F

Nice feature, especially with EC2 Auto Scaling 👏 Amazon EC2 added new price protection for attribute based instance selection 👉 Define Spot instances price protection limit as a percentage of their On-Demand price https://t.co/BQZn6s3ifV #AWS #DevOps #FinOps

AWS #reinvent2023 is officially over! I had a blast, learned a lot and met a lot of great people. Key takeaway for me this year is to respond to Werner’s encouragement about architecting for cost and sustainability for the outset, by applying Well-Architected principles.

Amazon S3 Express One Zone sets a new bar for cloud object storage performance. By co-locating storage and compute, it removes network latency to achieve up to 10x faster data access compared to S3 Standard, at half the cost. #aws #reinvent2023 https://t.co/qFcfYTdb1i

The commandments for Friday deploys are really no different from any other day.

* NEVER ship and walk out the door. Only ship when you have enough time to stick around, watch your changes roll out, and verify they work in production....and if they don't, fix them.

[Charity Majors @mipsytipsy]

Earlier this week I was chatting with someone who says they don't want their people shipping code from 3-5 pm on Fridays, because they want them walking around and talking to each other, having informal conversations as a way to wind down from the week.

I fucking love that idea.
