🚨 Anthropic just showed a 27-minute workshop on how to actually do prompts for Claude.

Taught by the people who built it.

Free. No registration. No paywall.

I've seen $300 courses that don't cover what they teach in the first 8 minutes.

Watch it and bookmark it now.

Adoption is the floor. Intensity is the ceiling.

AWS just made multi-cloud networking way cleaner

Introducing AWS Interconnect — private, dedicated connections to other clouds (starting with Google Cloud, more coming soon). No VPN headaches. No public internet routing.

Finally a proper way to run multi-cloud at scale 💪

Attackers see your AWS environment as a map. Your CSPM sees a list.

That gap is how breaches happen.

The meetup was awesome! 🤩
We explored Agentic Development - and how to truly work with AI Agents (not just prompt them).
Here are a few key takeaways 🧠👇

🧩 A Few Things to Keep in Mind for Agentic Development

Working with AI Agents isn’t just about prompts - it’s about structure and intent.

1️⃣ Start with a clear user persona
- Define who the agent is serving.
- Understand their goals, context, and constraints.

2️⃣ Break the goal into a task list

- Agents perform best when they know the steps to get there.
- Define intermediate milestones or “plans of action.”

3️⃣ Set boundaries and tools
- Tell the agent what it can and can’t do.
- List APIs, files, or systems it can access - no guessing!

4️⃣ Add feedback loops
- Build checkpoints for validation before final output.
- Encourage reflection or self-verification.

5️⃣ Measure and iterate
- Observe how the agent behaves in real-world scenarios.
- Adjust prompts, memory, or tool access based on results.

⚙️ Agentic development = giving your AI structure, clarity, and purpose - just like onboarding a real teammate.

And it's apparently not just me there are so many of your customers facing the same problem https://t.co/EIA8Ma9PPL

[Srinivas Gowda @linuxsavvy]

@squarespace @SquarespaceHelp Your billing system is a nightmare.
I’m dealing with random rejections on valid cards and errors asking me to contact support.
With one domains expiring soon and no proper support response, this is unacceptable. Fix this now!
