Just wanted to give some kudos to the whole #Ford team, not only for this new EV platform, but for really upping your presentation game! This beautifully conveyed the important details and truly showed the heart of what you've all been working on! More presentations like this please!
Have you ever wondered what @quinnypig.com would say if AWS finally released Savings Plans for RDS? Well wonder no more, just listen to the the end of the latest LWIA episode for a hilarious 3 minute diatribe! www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0U4...
You made it to Tuesday? I was over it yesterday!
If you are at #reinvent2025, stop by and say hi! We are in booth #1217 right next to Splunk.
I sent a text asking if there was something wrong with the ventilation and they said they are checking with the operations team.
Anyone else noticed that the #Venetian smells of cigarette smoke way more than in the past? Already burning my throat just walking through the casino. #AWSreInvent
Headed to #AWSreInvent, and so far a smooth @Southwest.com flight. Can’t wait to have all of the moisture removed from my body as I learn about the latest ingestion priced service you are all going to wildly overspend on!
I'm thinking of launching a consultancy where I fly first class to various Fortune 500 companies and sit in conference rooms saying 'That's not how AI works'.
Shit, I think I'm already booked through 2026!

Holy cow it’s been 9 years since @awscloud.bsky.social us-east-2 came into existence. I still believe it should have been named us-central-1

While @quinnypig.com is out enjoying @monktoberfest.com in the wilds of Maine, I will be taking your Office Hours questions today. Come join me!
I loved our Expedition, but I love my Lightning even more! Would love if Ford could build an EV Expedition. I would be the first in line for it!
One of the few bands that would make me go to re:Play this year. I’d also go to Green Day, Alanis, or RHCP just to relive the 90’s.
Stop by and ask us some questions!
Come join me tomorrow as I try and do my best filling in for @quinnypig.com answering your questions. It may not be as snarky, but I will try and make it fun!
This is perfection. HBD to my favorite current boss @quinnypig.com
Ever since I started working at @duckbillgroup.com, I've had a new appreciation anytime I see a cute baby platypus.
Ruh-roh 😳
🚨 Amazon Q shipped with a self-destruct button, and we're not joking.
A hacker injected a prompt telling Q to wipe computers and delete AWS resources. Amazon shipped it to 950k users.

“$110M a year on AWS? I could do it for half!”
Bro, your last infra project was making a cron job email you weather updates.
Sit down.

Good deals right now for prime day I think. This is the one we got:

Just bought a Anker F3800 Plus to augment my home power backup needs. With the discount and tax rebate it’s under $2k now and can power most necessary things for at least 4-5hrs, longer if you conserve. Plus no noise or fumes of a gas generator!
If not, and it’s too difficult to run some Ethernet cables to those spots, check out powerline ethernet adapters. I’ve had good luck with them when running a line was impossible.
I was just working on my FSx analysis tool (mostly for ONTAP and Windows), so I’ll look into this a bit more. FSx certainly has some odd 1-way doors depending on engine type.
When I was an 80’s kid, we watched re-runs of 50’s shows like “Leave it to Beaver”, and today’s kids would mean watching reruns of Seinfeld and Friends. 👴🏻
Tutu finally got to get on Rocky’s body! 🥹 it won’t be long and they will be napping in the floor together. #bunny #labrador
Outback is good, but Texas Roadhouse rolls are S-tier bread.
So sorry Ada, take care of your self, and I hope you start to feel better soon!
Finally!
So weird that they didn’t acknowledge this in the blog posts announcing AWS Transform.
