#AWS Largely Sold Out Of Capacity Into 2028, Jassy Says
“‘26 is obviously at this point sold out. [2027] is largely sold out. We always leave a certain amount for #ondemand and our inference service Bedrock or #EC2 but largely sold out all the big chunks. A good chunk of ‘28 is sold out,” Jassy said. EC2 is Amazon’s service for running applications, while Bedrock helps companies run #AI models.

It turns out that #MRI scans are more stressful than anticipated if you are a) very mildly claustrophobic, and b) have an inner ear / brain issue being diagnosed that means you can't keep your head still with your eyes closed.
I definitely do not feel 100%.

Hands down my favorite part of the #DIY #NAS: Texas Linux Fest 2026 is the motherboard. But a close second is the 12+ 3D-printed 3.5" hard drives that I printed to fill up the case.
They don't hold any data, but their price-per-terabyte might actually be superior to actual HDDs!

This is so neat. Just registered. Found it through @jack's blog though, not through this post.

🧾 The organizations we work for often pay a heavy but invisible tax: the complexity tax. It shows up in slow decision-making, unnecessary overhead, and warring metrics.
We've all seen the symptoms: approval by committee, constant need for permission, information silos. Complexity didn't arrive overnight. Instead, it came one tiny decision at a time. Most of these decisions weren't harmful. It's the collective result that hurts. We have a cognitive bias when solving a problem, in that we tend to look for things to add rather than subtract.
In the early 2000s, as Nokia did very well with mobile phones, it hired more people to help coordinate the work. On the surface, this helped. Then, as Ran Nyman and Ari Tikka document, the coordination chaos that resulted was a significant factor in the demise of Nokia mobile.
Adding additional managers and departments isn't always bad, because the problem isn't the person or even the role. Instead, the problem is when the decision is made to add a new manager (an increase in complexity) without seeking simplicity first. Once the manager or department is added, people will be invested in this complexity forever.
A quick test: you have a complexity problem if you need a flow chart to map out your organization's decision-making process.
After 25 years of Agile, I still see organizations strangling their decision-making process with so much overhead that the teams do low value work, waiting for all of the decisions.
When doing work, always ask the question, how could we simplify this system? What could we eliminate? Every time we make a decision to simplify, we make it easier for the person who follows.

The fall colors at Kubota Garden are starting to peak.
I made three trips there this month. Each time, the maples had a little more color — reds, oranges, and golds filling in around the ponds and paths. The old twisted maple I kept returning to still isn't at full color, but the garden around it is close.
This is my favorite stretch there, when the colors are just tipping toward peak. What part of Kubota do you head for first?

Initial thoughts on my first experience with the new NSF Data Management Plan web form:
1. Releasing this before the directorates have had a chance to populate the fields makes it confusing (drop down menus with nothing to select) and makes it feel like it was released before it was ready
2. As a reviewer I'd much prefer a free-form 2 pages with required sections. That actually provides information about an applicants knowledge and ability to satisfy the plan
3. Figuring out how to put this information into the form is substantially more work (admin burden) than writing a 2-pager
4. The only reason I can see for this system is something about compliance, and I'd love to see more meaningful expectations of following through on Data Management Plans, but it seems like without explicit plans for enforcement that this more complex, less informative, form won't accomplish that

@siracusa have you thought about having Hyperspace expose a CLI and/or SKILL.md? Every time you mention it I think “huh I really should run that again”, and I’d love to just have an agent take care of it occasionally

The more nonsense I see on the roads, the greater appreciation I have for my buddy’s old college shitbox. Black mid-90s Honda Civic sedan, fit a kickass CD deck, was permanently up for shenanigans, and could run with literally no oil.

Look, world. You need to stop trying to get my hopes up. It's not happening. I am determined to brace for the worst for as long as required. (Though it is probably shaving months off my lifespan.)

We’ve been building a lot of our own tools lately instead of reaching for existing projects, and it’s got me wondering what that means for open source. What’s still worth sharing? https://jdno.dev/whats-still-worth-sharing-as-open-source/ #ai #opensource

I am intrinsically skeptical of any "how is X different from Y?" explanation that boils down to "well you see, X is good and Y is bad"
