It is sad to see how clueless these guys are when it comes to how individuals and communities react to technology.
Noone is in need of such invasive, uncomfortable high-tech bullshit as the experience of Metaverse should have already pointed out.
Human beings react in the most unpredictable ways. We value privacy and intimacy more than efficiency.
These weirdos whom the zeitgeist catapulted into uncalled for importance have no idea.
They should hire a psychologist or an anthropologist to understand how humans behave on individual and communal level.
This they should do before pouring billions on stupid projects. (Unless, of course, they preach this without believing it, pushing an agenda to rip off the government or sth.)
BREAKING: Zuckerberg just described the near-future of computing, and it has nothing to do with screens.
His call: within 5 years, every person on Earth has a personal AI that knows their life, understands their goals, and does the work for them.
Not a chatbot. Not a search box.
An agent that is deeply, intimately embedded in how you live.
When the person building the social layer for 3 billion people says this is where we're going, it's not a prediction.
It's a roadmap.
Is the personal AI agent the most valuable product anyone can build right now?

Tomorrow Vercel is updating its terms to use your code and agent chats for AI training and third-party data sharing. So we just wanted to remind you that the CEO of this company openly aligns himself with Netanyahu.
If we had LLM powered coding agents 10 years ago, we would still be using Jenkins for all CI/CD automations

I think storing secrets in S3 is a good way; it is simple, durable, can be accessed with strict IAM policies. #aws
As long as we can eliminate race conditions during updates and have a proper way to manage the secrets. Race condition is negligible IMO, at least it wasn't an issue so far to my experience.
I was using s3-edit before but it requires knowing specific keys to use. That's why, together with Claude, I've quickly built a TUI application to navigate in a bucket and view/edit quickly:
github.com/mtyurt/s3n
I don't know if this is a trend, but lately most successful side projects that make some profit that I saw are doing the same thing: help other self-starters or first-timers to build their products, directories of said products, etc.

Replying to @MouinRabbani @ashatenbroeke
As the supporters left the stadium, their genocidal racism now intensified by the 5-0 drubbing administered to their club by Ajax, they essentially picked up where they had left off before entering the stadium earlier that evening. This time, their intended victims fought back.
