Amazon just released AWS Emulator, simulating APIs for 200+ services locally so developers can test offline without AWS usage charges.
The team proudly says humans didn’t write or review a single line of code. AI agents did, while humans provided the guardrails.
Weird flex, but OK.

Code is fundamentally collaborative in nature. You are always building on top of other libraries, APIs, subsystems, protocols, etc. Your software is built atop a pyramid. You don't always need to understand every part of that pyramid, but if it becomes structurally unsound, your software is fucked.

nit-pick: these are two independent features. For example, while “Reactive Mastro” can be used to client-side render the same components as core Mastro uses on the server, typesafe APIs without any components are possible as well: github.com/mastrojs/api

I think that it helps that, for a majority of the Switch's life, the emulator devs hadn't fully understood the system's graphics APIs, so while you heard "Tears of the Kingdom playable before launch" type headlines, the actual experience had SO many asterisks for anybody who actually did that.

So that's everything we wrote about here standardised AND released in Chrome now! Plus people are working on implementations for Firefox and Safari.

I'm really excited to see this starting to land as honestly believe it will change the way we write HTML (whether directly, or through frameworks!!).
And now it's starting to land you can think about starting to use it for real!

We don't have great language around minimizing how this stuff infects the creative process as a lot of how we talk about it was defined in 2023 when AI was a thing someone chose to use on purpose. Those standards aren't practical when it means being forensic with everything from OS to APIs on a loop
