Use the Strands SDK to build AI agents, easily integrating with existing MCP tools, selecting models from Bedrock, OpenAI, or Olama.
It’s so easy, I felt so productive after just one hour :-)

Stop treating MCP servers like browser extensions.
Start treating them like you're downloading random executables from the internet.
Because when you add an MCP server to Claude Desktop or Cursor IDE, that's exactly what you're doing!

If there only was a vaccine against... Oh, wait!
ah yeah so if this is true, these figures are comparable to where we were with COVID-19 on about March 9, 2020.
The US has 800 confirmed cases of measles, a 12% increase from the week prior in an outbreak that has reached nearly half the country.
