Dear @mymoneyview how does one get in touch with you? Email to care@ goes unresponded, and I can't get through to your phone number. In the ongoing saga of "I'm not the Amrith Kumar you want" (see hypecycles.com/2016/09/18/th…) you sent me a 100 page credit report of one of
Elizabeth Bowen, writing about Aldous Huxley in 1936 applies just as well to #regenerative #AI today 🤔
“Mr. Huxley has been the alarming young man for a long time, a sort of perpetual clever nephew who can be relied on to flutter the lunch-party. Whatever will he say next?
he is expected to be relentless, to administer intellectual shocks. This attitude to Mr. Huxley, to which his early work has been given credit has been maintained, and strengthened, for about twenty years.”
Just published a post on the @awscloud #database blog aws.amazon.com/blogs/databas…
@dynamodb supports multi-active “Global Tables” and you can now work with them in DynamoDB Shell (ddbsh).
You can create, and manage replicas of Global tables with ddbsh version 0.3 and higher.
You can query them just as you would a regional table.
Note that version 0.4 which came out more recently also adds support for deletion protection DDL (through CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE).
Looking forward to chatting with @tebanieo

#aws #dynamodb shell now has DDL support for global tables. I'd finished most of the code for this while I was traveling. Finally got it over the line earlier this week. See github.com/awslabs/dynamodb-… (see version 0.3)
New Blog Post “Querying data with DynamoDB Shell - a command line interface for DynamoDB” just appeared on the #AWS #database blog.

anyone know of a good way to run an app in a secure environment on #android? Couldn’t get work profiles to work (only one #mdm per device) and multiple users appears to not be ready for prime time.

More fun with @awscloud @dynamodb and #dynamodb-shell. Working with tables and GSIs, and DynamoDB transactions.

It is surprisingly good, and it will surely disrupt the market, and our lives in a very material way.
I'll be at @awscloud #reInvent2022 this week and looking forward to meeting customers, old friends, and colleagues. First time with an @amazon badge.
Post (post.news) is so much more civilized. I am @ amrith on post.
