Claude has been down this morning, so I've had to use my brain. "Hello, old friend, I forgot how much more rewarding working with you is".

The sycophancy response is high on this thread.
Folks, this doesn't read the way you think it does. It's just one long excuse, instead of identifying and addressing issues with a promise to do better.
If you want to toady up to bad CEOs that pass the buck, then LinkedIn is but a tap away.

📣THREAD: It’s surprising to me that so many people were surprised to learn that Signal runs partly on AWS (something we can do because we use encryption to make sure no one but you–not AWS, not Signal, not anyone–can access your comms).
It’s also concerning. 1/

PSA: we're aware that Signal is down for some people. This appears to be related to a major AWS outage. Stand by.

Goddammit! Bluesky's latest update has broken a part of the product I'm developing.
I'm just glad it's still in testing.

AWS down again? Perhaps now would be a good time to consider more stable alternatives? I have been moving a lot of my stuff over to European providers and I've never been happier with that decision than I am now! @scaleway.com 🇪🇺

I’d never realised there was an acoustic version of Take On Me until I heard it in The Last of Us Season 2 — and wow, that scene was beautiful.
Afterward, I found a-ha’s original acoustic performance and was blown away
Here’s my take on it

There always seems to be a group of Gen Z'ers in this Pret for lunch; and they always bring their mate, who clearly went to public school and thus cannot regulate the volume of his voice

That's an odd bug; the release version didn't want to return a duration for video files. Fixing it to use mime types felt like a change I should have made ages ago, anyway
