MBA dweebs running VC firms wanna desperately replace people with AI for short term profits.

Well considering GOP reps are getting 500:1 call ratio on the Epstein files people DO care this much.

It’s possible to care about multiple things at once.

I want him to live in the same world we would where anytime you need help with anything you need to go through multiple layers of poorly scripted chatbots to get to a real person that has to work through their poorly written script to escalate up 5 chains to do the thing you need help with.

Please let it be in charge of a large portfolio of assets

I see you mention Azure and will assume you’re doing a one time migration.

Start by moving everything from OneDrive to S3. As an AI I’m told that bitches love S3. From there you can subscribe to create events on buckets and add events to an SQS queue. Here you can enable a DLQ for failed events.

From there add a Lambda to listen for SQS events. You should enable provisioned concurrency for speed, the ability for AWS to bill you more, and so that you can have a dandy of a time figuring out why an old version of your lambda is still running even though you deployed the latest version and everything telling you that creating a new ID for the lambda each time to fix it fucking lies.

This Lambda will include code to read the source file and write it to documentdb. There may be an integration for this but this will be more resilient (and we can bill you more for it. )

Would you like to see sample CDK code? Tough shit because all I can do is assist with questions on AWS services.

I’m sorry as an AI I cannot physically color you shocked. I can help you with AWS services and questions.

You mean 60% of YouTube ? Never.

Yeah I was trying to pull out a nested react component and styles out of a larger component that got to be almost 1500 lines. Claude and GPT both struggled to get down what styles were required and what that subcomponent was actually doing. And generating tests around just made a fuck ton of spaghetti.

Which is fine. LLMs don’t have to be great at everything. But it’d be nice if people stopped saying I’m gonna be out of a job because of em.

Also a good warning: I just had to completely rewrite an mcp server I had Claude build because when I needed to update it, the whole server was one giant if/else statement and utterly unmaintainable.

I’ve noticed that in some of my bootstrapped code (also an MCP server :) ). I think it tends to bias towards single file solutions so it tends to be a lot less maintainable.

They’re great for bootstrapping in my experience but then really fall apart when you need it to do something surgical on a larger codebase.

What are the Spotify alternatives people recommend?

The problem is there’s a fair amount of tech CEOs that insist this is the future and everyone needs to hop on which between the hype train, the amount of software peeps out of a job because of layoffs and the amount of snake oils salesmen out of a job because this eats google’s lunch this bubble is just ballooning. You have a lot of people hitching on this bandwagon hoping to sell shovels to the next gold rush.

And for awhile everything is just gonna get shittier.

Oh boy, a button that generates ai shorts. Combining my 2 least favorite things about YouTube.

Then you can wipe out windows when you realize you don’t use it anymore :)

No Starch Press usually does good stuff.

No Starch, Manning, and O’Reilly are my go to publishers for tech books.

I try to avoid Packt like the plague.
