Use the Strands SDK to build AI agents, easily integrating with existing MCP tools, selecting models from Bedrock, OpenAI, or Olama. It’s so easy, I felt so productive after just one hour :-) Follow this four-part series of tutorials by @dtraub.bsky.social community.aws/content/2xP1...

Stop treating MCP servers like browser extensions. Start treating them like you're downloading random executables from the internet. Because when you add an MCP server to Claude Desktop or Cursor IDE, that's exactly what you're doing!

When they sell you "lifetime" access, they mean _your_ lifetime, right? Haha, f*** no! Actually, they mean the lifetime of the plan, which they can retire whenever they want... 🤷‍♂️
Screenshot of the following text: "Our records show that you have a ACG course lifetime access account. As part of integrating A Cloud Guru into the Pluralsight platform, we are terminating your lifetime course access license to the software-as-a-service (SaaS) offering of A Cloud Guru on February 1, 2025 due to the plan being retired. This move is made in accordance with the termination for convenience clause as outlined in section 14.2 of our Individual Terms of Use."
