Effectively building AI agents on AWS Serverless

AWS just dropped support for buildingserverless agentic AI systems. You’ll need the Strands Agents SDK, Bedrock AgentCore (preview), plus trusty tools like Lambda and ECS. What’s new? Agentic AI flips the script. Instead of dumb prompt-in, response-out bots, you getgoal-driven loopswith memory, too..

Are OpenAI and Anthropic Really Losing Money on Inference?

DeepSeek R1 running on H100s puts input-token costs near$0.003 per million—while output tokens still punch in north of$3. That’s a 1,000x spread. So if a job leans heavy on input—think code linting or parsing big docs—those margins stay fat, even with cautious compute. System shift:This lop-sided ..

Some thoughts on LLMs and Software Development

Most LLMs still play autocomplete sidekick. But seasoned devs? They get better results when the model reads and rewrites actual source files. That gap—between how LLMs are designed to work and how prosactuallyuse them—messes with survey data and muddies the picture on real gains in code quality and..

Combining GenAI & Agentic AI to build scalable, autonomous systems

Agentic AI doesn’t just crank out content—it takes the wheel. Where GenAI reacts, Agentic AI plans, perceives, and acts. Think less autocomplete, more autonomous ops. Hook them together, and you get a full-stack brain: content creation, real-time decisions, adaptive workflows, all learning as they ..

I set up an email triage system using Home Assistant and a local LLM, here's how you can too

A DIY email triage rig usingHome Assistant, IMAP, andOllamawires up local LLM smarts with YAML-fueled automation. At the core: an8B dolphin-llamamodel running on GPU, chewing through messy HTML emails, tagging them, and firing off priority-sorted summaries via notifications. Why it matters:A signal..

The Most Important Machine Learning Equations: A Comprehensive Guide

A new reference rounds up the core ML equations—Bayes’ Theorem, cross-entropy, eigen decomposition, attention—and shows how they plug into real Python code using NumPy, TensorFlow, and scikit-learn. It hits the big four: probability, linear algebra, optimization, and generative modeling. Stuff that..

ECScape: Understanding IAM Privilege Boundaries in Amazon ECS

A new ECS security mess—ECScape—lets low-privileged tasks on EC2 act like the ECS agent. That’s bad. Real bad. Why? Because it opens the door to stealing IAM credentials from other ECS tasks sharing the same host. Here’s the trick: The attacker hits the instance metadata service (IMDS) and fakes a ..

Availability Models: Because “Highly Available” Isn’t Saying Much

Antithesis and Jepsen want to kill hand-wavy "high availability" talk. Instead, they push for clearavailability models—majority,total,sticky, etc.—that spell out when an operationactuallyworks during failures. It's about precision, not platitudes. Why it matters:This reframes availability from a va..

Observability in Go: What Real Engineers Are Saying in 2025

Go observability still feels like pulling teeth. Manual instrumentation? Tedious. Span coverage? Spotty. Telemetry volume? Totally out of hand. Even with OpenTelemetry gaining traction, Go lags behind Java and Python when it comes to auto-instrumentation and clean context propagation. Devs are hunt..
