When you create a profile for yourself you get a personal page automatically. That's where you can be creative and do your own thing. People who want to get to know you will click on your name or picture and…
AWS has recently introduced durability for Amazon ElastiCache for Valkey, enabling reliable data retention across failures and expanding support beyond caching to persistent workloads. The feature offers new options that prioritize either minimizing data loss or maintaining lower write latency, expanding the range of use cases supported by the Redis fork.
HashiCorp has announced the general availability of the Terraform MCP Server, an open-source MCP server that enables agents to integrate with Terraform Registry APIs. The company says that it can improve infrastructure teams productivity by relieving engineers of rote tasks.
AWS recently announced CDK Mixins, a new AWS CDK feature that lets developers add reusable capabilities like security, monitoring, and configuration to AWS resources. Mixins work across different construct types, making infrastructure code more flexible and reusable.
Google recently announced that WebMCP is entering origin trials in Chrome 149. The new WebMCP standard proposal lets sites expose tools (e.g., JavaScript functions and HTML forms) to in-browser AI agents, which can thus reliably simulate user actions instead of resorting to possibly expensive (e.g., on-screen reading) and often unreliable guesswork (e.g., DOM scraping).
Google has announced the Google Colab CLI, a command-line tool that allows developers and AI agents to interact with remote Colab runtimes directly from a local terminal.
