✅ Formally verified with Lean theorem prover
✅ Differential testing in Rust
Perfect for modern cloud-native environments where fine-grained authorization matters.

Launch #2 I'm excited about today: STRANDS TYPESCRIPT SDK
These days, coding agents generate most of my code, even AI agent code. Typescript outperforms Python for agentic coding: early compiler errors speed up iteration. Bring on the Typescript agents!

Really excited about this new Agent SOPs open source project!
github.com/strands-agents/ag…
We use this structured agent prompt format a LOT at Amazon with coding assistants to automate daily work - there are 1000s of agent SOPs internally

🎙️ New episode with @charliermarsh!
Charlie built Ruff (an extremely fast Python linter written in Rust) and uv (an extremely fast Python package manager written in Rust) because he believes great tools can have an outsized impact.
He believes it so much, in fact, that he started an entire company (@astral_sh) that builds next-gen Python tooling. 👇

Friendly reminder: #dotnet 6 hits end of life next week (Nov-12). That means it's no longer supported, no more patches *or SECURITY fixes*. You should be moving to .NET 8 or .NET 9

Working on a talk for re:Invent and exploring how I can use gen Ai to interact with my architecture - from CloudFormation templates and text descriptions to diagrams and back, evaluating against best practices, getting suggestions for improvements, and help making decisions.

@valkey_io forked from Redis just six short months ago, but it has already made substantial changes to the io threading infrastructure to achieve up to 230% improved multi-threaded performance, over 1 million RPS on the latest graviton arm hardware we tested on. This required offloading work and better utilizing the underlying hardware. You can learn about it in buff.ly/4dZznoL and buff.ly/3Tv5e8q. #Valkey

The "IpAddress" IAM condition is one of my favorites. Can screenshare the output w/o someone sniping my creds.
