AWS: Your honor, we do not believe we are bound by the SLA punitive clause in our contract with the plaintiff in this case.

Judge: Care to explain?

AWS: Certainly. The direct cause was tracked down to a bit of AI-generated code.

Judge: How does that…

AWS: It was an act of God, your honor.

If you're wondering what AWS is, it's kinda like the operating system of the corporate Internet.

I call it bezOS.

This would be a good time to ask Amazon how much of their stuff is vibe coded.

The day the world stood still.

Because the world keeps putting all service eggs into the same infrastructure provider basket. 🤡

I've recently (last few months) had several instances where #AWS says they are passing all health checks. But the serial console is not available, and the node is not responding to anything at all. All endpoints are down in the load balancers.

I've had to take manual intervention to terminate these instances so that the auto-scaler can bring up a new one and K8s can move the workload. Anyone else seeing this? This is us-west-2 #awscloud

Advanced Programming the UNIX Environment

Week 1: UNIX Basics

In this lecture, we provide a whirlwind tour of the Unix programming environment. In the process, we write a simple shell, a simple version of the ls(1) command, and two versions of the cat(1) command while learning about the Unix Philosophy.
