Amazon Web Services experienced a 13-hour interruption to one system used by its customers in mid-December after engineers allowed its Kiro AI coding tool to make certain changes, according to four people familiar with the matter.
The people said the agentic tool, which can take autonomous actions on behalf of users, determined that the best course of action was to “delete and recreate the environment”.
Amazon posted an internal postmortem about the “outage” of the AWS system, which lets customers explore the costs of its services. — Amazon Web Services experienced a 13-hour interruption to one system used by its customers in mid-December after engineers allowed its Kiro AI coding tool to make certain changes, according to four people familiar with the matter.

Found on Linkedin: digital image presents a list titled "THE LIFE OF A PROGRAMMER" with a series of bullet points.

The title uses red uppercase letters for "THE LIFE OF A" and purple uppercase letters for "PROGRAMMER".

Each bullet point is marked with a purple clover icon and contains the following text verbatim: "No hugs & kisses, only bugs & fixes", "No dates, only updates", "No crush, only crash", "No 69, only fix the line", "No romance, only maintenance", "No hugging, only debugging", "No rest, only test", "No smile, only compile", "No one trustable, only variable".

The best way to become a senior is to just outlast everyone. You don't need to be smart. You just need to not quit. In 5 years everyone will leave, and you will become "the one who knows how everything works here".

— How's it going?
— Let's get straight to the task.
— No, I'm genuinely interested in how you are.
— You can't fool me, I know this manager's trick.
— Dude, you've completely lost your mind from work.
— ...Okay, sorry. I'm doing well, just finishing up a pet project.
— Awesome. So, look, there's this one urgent task...

Working in a large corporation is a place where you get paid for:

* waiting for access
* attending meetings
* learning tool Y that nobody else uses
* changing color of a button
* rearranging the JSON
* rolling back the color of a button
* putting the JSON back, there's a bug
* don't move, we have a release freeze
* waiting a little longer for access
* teaching an intern tool Y
* you forgot to read your email again
* it's time to change passwords
