I just updated my DeepSeek-R1 on Bedrock example to separate the model's reasoning from the final response. The screenshot is a response to: "Explain 'rubber duck debugging' on a single paragraph" Here's the notebook so you can try it yourself: github.com/DennisTraub/...

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."

I'm notoriously bad at CSS 😅 I rarely work with it, so writing advanced selectors always leaves me scratching my head. But instead of googling for the 100th time, I tried Amazon Q's new Inline Chat today! Using AI without interrupting my coding flow really is a game changer! 🚀

Dennis Traub @dtraub.bsky.social · 14/03/2024

🏎 Arguably the fastest model in it's category! Here's how you can run Claude 3 Haiku on Amazon Bedrock, using #JavaScript 👇🏻 #generaitiveai #artificialintelligence #technology #programming

Dennis Traub @dtraub.bsky.social · 28/02/2024

That's really helpful! I took a Python dictionary and Amazon Q turned it into valid and formatted JSON, directly in the IDE 🙂

💡 Did you know that you can get the input and output token count for your inferences on Amazon Bedrock? Along with other metrics, they are part of the response metadata now 👇

Trying to translate some code into an obscure language (*coughPHP*) that I haven't been using since 1999 -- with Amazon Q it turns out to be surprisingly smooth and efficient 😃
