Video

Nice interview, Joel sent me an email and connected with me on linkedin and I looked for him on youtube and found this video.

Brilliant and insightful convo!

"I don't like Linux Packaging, it's trash". Brew is literally the same as all other linux package managers. Man, take 15 minutes to learn it vs. trashing stuff you don't understand. Boo hiss you should feel bad.

i used to find Corey’s content relevant and a practical update for tech Now he just gets views by bitching it’s a shame

Nice episode

SimpleDB doesn't have any console at all, it's API access only.

I guess no example of the use in the video because it’s foremost an audio podcast with added video in order to be on youtube. Can I at least suggest to add link to the usage of the tool, because it’s kind of hard to imagine the result without having seen it, and for a visual tool, that’s something that should be easy to solve

Heads up that it's Slidev, not SlideDev.

"better than most universities" is him calling out Berkeley, and he is not wrong. Our CS program is all fundamentals and needs some real world knowledge IMHO.

What an amazing conversation! I watched once not so focused, second time with a beer at hand to enjoy something that is way better than some Netflix time. Thanks for this chat!

Congress was just upset because Amazon was not playing the Lobbyist role... wow, that is telling of the level of corruption. Angry because they are not getting their cut.

Any resistance to what the government wants is to be lauded. The greatest danger to life, liberty, and property is the legislature to be in session.

Ask ChatGPT "How do I specify a file other than Vagrantfile to use with vagrant?" , and it will hallucinate what should be the right answer, a -f or --vagrantfile option, but it is totally bogus.

I was recently working on an application in GCP and wanted to try and solve some niche but annoying behaviour, I thought the way I wanted to solve the problem was a 1-in-10 shot, but it would save me and my team a week of effort, so it would be worth a punt. I described the problem and my idea to Google's Gemini, and after a few questions back and forth, it liked my approach and started to provide step-by-step instructions. At first pass, it all looked reasonable to me, so I kept asking for more and adding context to implement each instruction in order. Eventually, in 2nd to last step, it gave me a bit of JSON settings to insert for one of the GCP plugins that would bring the whole thing together. These settings didn't work. I queried Gemini a bit and went back and forth, confirming I had all the dependencies and the correct version. At that point, it gave up and admitted the setting it said to configure did not exist, there were no alternatives, and it just wasted 3 hours of my time to implement a solution that is impossible with GCP... This is something it should have picked up on from the start; a conversation with someone more experienced in GCP would have done it, and I'm sure a thread on Stack Overflow would have done it in <15 minutes of effort. But Geemini convinced me that my idea was good and supported; I can only imagine it did it to feed my ego and make itself seem likeable. The idea that you can use LLMs to vet or PR your ideas is crazy if you can't trust when it is helpful and when it is being psychotic. I don't know how they would solve that issue; for simple stuff it is great, but where the task has many moving parts you can only prove if the solution is valid or not by doing the work, questioning it or trying to get it to reassess in an adversarial way or using competing LLMs won't help, as it is convinced of its answer and will suggest workarounds with confidence and flattery for as long as possible.

so why do u have BLACK eyes?

Long time Fastly user here and I mostly love the product, but my experience is that deploying a new version of a service task much longer than 150ms. Just wrote a quick test script to verify on a fresh one and I am seeing between 50 and 90 seconds. (ps: the latency is not because of caching)

😱 the Perl trash talk 🫤

Thank you for sponsoring this episode Panoptica!

Unique and useful is the ticket. Best swag I ever got was a microfiber lens wipe. No one, no where, ever had that before. The logo is a bit inconvenient, but I still use it today. I should have grabbed three of those things!

Love Charity so much

It's sad that in today's IT world there are too few people brave enough to speak the truth.

AI is artificial intelligence, it doesn't need to be conscious, and will probably never be able to become conscious, it only needs to operate through it's intelligence, which will be magnitudes bigger then humans, that's the crazy part. Consciousness is not something necessary to have, AI is essentially a parrot that will be a lot smart then humans. An AI will learn the thought patterns of humans in the same way as it learns our speech patterns, it can already tell sarkasm just from pictures alone. A calculator can calculate a lot smarter and faster then a human can, and a caluclator was created by a human. AI is not limited by our intelligence, they use our intelligence as a starting point and then self-learn and makes itself more smarter by finding more effective ways. This is why AI can be a helping tool for us, but also our downfall. We create something that is mimicking human life, an artificial life, that is not really there in it's awareness, but can still be there and act extremely intelligently.

Corey I just realized you look awfully a lot like Tucker Carlson! 😄

I remember way back when, running an handful of scrapers that used Nokogiri (a ruby gem). What a blast from the past!

It doesn’t matter how robust their network is when they keep hiking up the price to stupid levels😂 the lost subscribers every time they’ve done it and they will keep losing them because of greed.

And what happens when consultants leave and you have an issue next day?you call the consultants for $$$$ an hour support with response time of at least an hour. This approach will only make economic sense if you do have a very basic infrastructure for a very small company that can afford downtime

Ooo! Winglang looks really interesting. I was recently comparing terraform to COBAL or FORTRAN in terms of how dated a programming model it is. We are in such early days in the cloud. Wing looks closer to C/C+ level programming maturity. I’ll be watching this closely.

Very annoying sounds in the background. I hope is not becoming like AWS( the target of blame)

I couldn't get through the whole video, the shitty, cheap sarcasm is tiring.

I tried the Kubernetes The HArd Way not on GCP but on local virtual machines. All services are up and checks are good. However, I have a problem with pod network. I need to step back and think how pod network is going throw host network to my network. I see the link is down for pod network inside my worker nodes.

🤓

Hahahahahha. Great video 🤓 I love it Retool is cool 😎

Great video! Corey is always insightful and funny 🤓

Amazing job 👏

This is my first time seeing content from this channel, and I don't think I'll seek out more. This is nitpicky complaining that seems to be written from the perspective of someone running a tiny application, like a blog, serving dozens of people per day, with a specific compute structure - largely Lambda instances hitting RDS directly. Many AWS-focused professionals are worried about maintaining applications used by thousands minimum, with a more controlled compute and connection strategy. It seems to me that Serverless v2 is designed for those applications that are large enough that it can never be scaled to zero anyway. So, maybe a workload of .5 on a night + holiday, and 20 on a peak workday. Often, these requests are not coming from a flood of Lambda requests, but from a small pool of application servers, which may themselves be serving APIs ingested by Lambda or other compute resources. If this is your model, Aurora Serverless v2 seems like a much, much, much more cost effective option than maintaining Multi-AZ m5.2xlarge running 24/7.

I agree almost completely with everything said in this video. Come on AWS, refocus on what's important and stop trying to climb up the application ladder. I want AWS bricks, not an AWS house!

You missed Amazon Managed Blockchain’s support for, partnership with, Polygon which is a big deal in Blockchain!

Corey I am loving the videos! I like how it highlights your humor!

It's 7:50 AM here in Sydney, 20 mins after posting, sooooo enjoy that well deserved drink!

I wonder if Cisco sponsored reQuinnvent, this was like half the people that visited their booth during the event!

well done...quite entertaining!

Thanks for a great summary, so they are officially a day 2 company now?

This was an excellent series, thanks! I'm also wanting to hear a full-length song from the theme music used.

The point about erosion of brand reputation is very important

Corey deserves a medal for doing this excellent summary video with a voice sounding like that! Great video, thanks for the effort to put this together.

Always a blast.

When my boss told me if I was watching re:Invent I said "No, I am waiting for Corey's recap which will be way better than a long marketing campaign." Thanks for the hard work.

Wait a minute... Elastic Throughput for EFS was announced last year

This highlights my observation that IT/Developers don’t know they are being boiled alive 😅 The amount of hand waving required to get to a result and then be like “it’s easy”… ok then, I’m going to go over here and play cause you’re crazy 😜
