Ann O'Leary 🙄🤬 (@Panda6) reported@goodreads Hi - honest question - why is your site so very slow to load?? Can’t you get some @awscloud juice behind it??

Justin (@Justin__Co) reported@AWSSupport I've been trying since May 9th to get my SMTP for SES in production and I'm still in sandbox. I verified everything from the start. I submitted follow ups 33 hours ago that have still gone unanswered. I require email verification for my site, so I'm effectively down until you get this running. Please respond!

Dominique Staub (@domstaub) reported@awscloud Your cloud is someone's else's On premise. You just pay not to have someone else maintain, secure and feed the servers and server room. In Mauritius, a hosting fee starts at 3k usd per month.

Vijay Swami (@vjswami) reportedIn an Agentic AI sales cycle, you need to intimately understand current customer workflows before you can even think about agents. This concept of deeply understanding the problem before "solution'ing" was something drilled into our heads at @awscloud in the early days. Prior to the current tools, this involved lots of back/forth with a customer, then having to put together a working document in the shape of the workflow for that particular customer and/or department. Time consuming and error prone. Today? Another day, another @AnthropicAI @claudeai Claude Code skill developed to speed this along: /workflowdiscovery It can take in multiple types of unstructured data (emails, docs, images, etc) and then turn them into a nice living document that maps the workflows, stakeholders, inputs/outputs, artifacts and more... in minutes. This is then automatically hosted on an internal website and the sales team gets a link they can use to go back to the customer and live edit the doc Q&A, validate assumptions, etc to lock this down. And then this can feed right into the solutions/engineering team with a simple JSON export into their workflows for agent mapping. Below is the skill information on the left, and sample output on the right. These are the types of tools and workflows which are mandatory for sales teams in 2026+.

Teri Radichel #cybersecurity #pentesting (@TeriRadichel) reportedI’m using @anthropic opus 4.8. With @awscloud Kiro. I have rules in my README that say only use Bash. But it ignored my instructions and said sorry I used Python after using a lot of tokens to do something I didn’t want it to do. I feel like I should get those tokens refunded: this is the kind of thing that unexpectedly wastes money and time and tokens unnecessarily. I can’t make the instructions any clearer. Stuff like that is so annoying. But I’m still writing code way faster. The problem is I got a $20 plan and used it up in a few hours. I tried switching back to 4.6 but seemed like the same results for code written. It’s like everything got more expensive after the new model showed up. Or maybe I really was just making that big of a change. I had to just up the subscription to $40. I’ve already spent a bunch of money on other subscriptions and got incorrectly billed $200 in tokens I couldn’t use this month (working on getting that refunded). So you can do the math. $40 per day x 31 = $1240. But people are using multiple agents. I could spin up an army of agents to write code for me if it didn’t cost so much. Who is going to win this game? As a single developer I’m seeking ways to reduce token usage (or whatever the billing metric is) and mistakes by agents like this one feel so unfair. It clearly was not what I asked for. Whether I fix it or the agent notices its mistake after the fact and fixes it without telling me it’s still going to cost the same. Bottom line is that I can produce a lot but it also costs me a lot and so far I haven’t found a way around that besides writing deterministic code I can then use instead of AI. I have to get the thing built I want to make me money before I spend it all on AI tokens. But right now the agent is making mistakes and getting stuck on things I’m doing that I guess are unique and the agent hasn’t seen too much before. It writes code and can’t figure out what it did wrong, AWS shared networking with VPC endpoints and organizations delegated admins and such I’m getting around that (without giving up full access to my cloud account) by creating verification queries and code but then the agent doesn’t follow the existing file structure and uses the wrong language without at least asking…*sigh* Also it seems like the verification code is burning tokens like a wildfire out of control. Not sure how this is going to work out. I hope there’s not some issue like someone else siphoning off tokens behind the scenes or some other weird problem like the previous nerf issue.

GrumpierByTheDay (@GrumpierBTDay) reported@BlackScholesMan I found the machinist commentary very interesting. Especially with calling out the difficulty hiring in ****-legal states. I sense this factor its-self could push federal interest in lifting restrictions. I know Amazon AWS was having the same issues re: high side DCs in Colorado.

Maynor Henríquez (@maynor_8795) reported@AWSSupport @AWSSupport Day 4 of complete silence on Case 177754503800193. My account is STILL locked, and we are literally bleeding money. Critical infrastructure for international logistics and clinical dental systems are entirely DOWN. Your "internal review" is destroying a real business.

Maynor Henríquez (@maynor_8795) reported@AWSSupport @AWSSupport Still NO resolution on Case 177754503800193. I’ve lost thousands of dollars in halted operations, delayed international shipping, and offline medical platforms. The lack of urgency from your Trust & Safety team is absolutely shameful. Fix this immediately.

Alper FERUDUN (@AlperTheKing) reported@awscloud The 2006 Black Friday peak-minute problem did not disappear. In 2026 agentic AI, the units are tool-call queues, retries, memory, eval gates, and sandbox slots. Same capacity planning, just less visible until latency explodes.

Ross 🛩️ (@airline_king) reportedLikely this **** is staged… But I had @amazon send me a crusty Apple Magic Keyboard that they demanded to get back (wasn’t even the one I ordered with Touch ID) , and made me waste 6+ hours on the phone being angry with customer service (which I am not proud of). The scumbag who took an exacto knife to the seal, replaced it, and sealed it up for return likely got away with it. Days later, they had the audacity to threaten me via email after over the whole experience. That was the day I decided to start winding down Amazon purchases and tel myself to never use @awscloud for anything if that’s how they want to act. Just amazing how they deal with this. Cc @AmazonHelp my memory is deep after that experience.

HRH Prince Sven Olaf of CyberBunker - CB3ROB (@cb3_rob46858) reported@awscloud bit of an issue there, the average security camera cannot be ****** to just poop out uncompressed rgb data if you beat it with a stick and always insists on some mpeg nonsense. despite having 1000base :P so also need to uncompress that crap -first- lol.
