AI;DR is apparently an unfamiliar term to Claude, which is ironic. Fortunately it is a clever cookie and figured that shit out. And shit it was, because if you can't be arsed to write it, i'm not gonna be arsed to read it.
FFS. Surely we can do better than this?

Still heading to San Francisco for Grace Hopper? 👀 If your travel plans are already locked in, head over to @github on LinkedIn. You might just be able to turn that trip into a free ticket to GitHub Universe. ❤️

tl;dr if you liked using RSS with Reddit, well fuck you.
There's a reason RSS *is* a "beloved part of the open web" and that's because it enables people to consume content where they want, not within some bullshit walled garden.

LinkedIn is becoming 90%+ AI posts: not just the comments but so many posts summarizing a well-written article using AI
In all fairness, LinkedIn brought much of this on themselves: 12 months ago they added a button to write with AI; inviting AI writing (to juice post numbers?)

Some great stuff this month, including:
- Good analyses of the DuckLabs acquisition by AWS.
- Lots of Kafka, as well as not-Kafka: technologies doing similar things but angling to replace it.
