Probably time to say that I rarely look at this place or post anything. The app isn't on my phone so I have to remember to visit in the browser which is happening less and less. While LinkedIn doesn't really replace the interactions I had here that's where I spend more time.

This is Kiro - the AI IDE that actually works on your messy, real-world projects. Other AI tools lose context when projects get complex. Kiro gives you spec-driven development that scales beyond prototypes.

I’m so excited to talk about what I’ve been working on the last 2 months! Today we’re open sourcing Cedar access controls for Kubernetes! Cedar is an open source policy language created by AWS, and this project enables writing expressive K8s permissions 🧵
