LocalStack used to be the golden standard for local AWS testing. Their upcoming changes mean CI now requires credits, and enterprise usage needs a paid license. That's why I've built fauxqs - a TypeScript SQS/SNS/S3 emulator. (1/3)

If you think that AI is useless for software development, it says more about you than it does about AI. It is very possible to do things with AI that you cannot easily do without. Skill level for "I can tell this is the right solution" is lower than for "I can solve it myself quickly".

There is a popular idea online that "programming is just work, why expect people to be excited about it?". Imagine you are assembling a sports team. Would you get players that aren't really playing to win? If you aim to play in the top league, you can't avoid having standards.

In your experience, what is the best way to let the world know about the new approach/framework? I'm putting finishing touches on "opinionated-machine" this week, which brings DX of building fastify backend services to the next level, and probably other people could benefit from knowing about it.

If your lifestyle involves a lot of computer time, you need to be doing certain types of extra exercise or the muscles will weaken that shock-absorb your knees, cartilage will start breaking down, and you get permanent knee issues. If you ask your doctor they can give you stretches to ward this off.
