My body is a machine that turns AWS accounts into expensive AWS accounts.
My To-do list is being thwarted by my eye doctor. They sent me a text to remind me to make an appointment. Instead of just letting me reply to the text to get a few options, they make me call them.
The problem: They aren't answering the phone.
There is no other way to make an appointment.

So this is a collection of containers that are MCP servers that handle AWS-specific tasks like searching docs, running lambdas, or creating diagrams. I've barely played with it, and it's not 100% yet, but what a great resource.

Yo dawg, I heard you like to AI code while you AI code, so I made this MCP Server that lets you run OpenHands from your GenAI workflow.

(1/3) Just looked over AWS's new persistent Docker build servers. Looks like the main advantage is that you can cache all your layers without having to rebuild them all the time, saving a lot of build time.

Microsoft really proved that you can get away with having a C-tier product and still get market domination if you bundle it with something people actually need.
I'm talking about Teams, specifically, but this extends to SharePoint, IE, Skype, and a ton of other products lost to time.

OMG THERE ARE TARIFFS ON UNINHABITED ISLANDS!
LOL, no. There are tariffs designed for a goal that people aren't telling you about. Probably stock market manipulation on a huge scale.
Better administrations would have been thorough in the cover story, but this one doesn't care if it's obvious.

AWS Bedrock is not quite nailing it. Trying to slap all the different LLMs under one API and having them all require different implementation details has been wild. I'll probably make a post about it later, but here are some I found today:
