So long, Notion Mail.
The company said it is discontinuing its email inbox in favor of its AI agent offering as users are increasingly handing over the reins of their email to the agents.
Notion is "going all in on using agents to run your inbox."
Table of Contents Overview Southwest and AWS From On-Prem to Cloud AI Comes Into Play Kiro Why This Matters? Closing Thoughts Overview Southwest Airlines is one of the largest carriers in the world. Other than having by far my absolute favorite airplane livery, it's a massive enterprise based in Dallas, Texas, with more than 72,000 employees, over 4,000 daily flights during peak travel periods, roughly 134 million customers annually, and service across 120+ airports in 12 countries. At this scale, what really matters is operational reliability and speed. Because in aviation, slow operations cause delays, delays cause unhappy customers, and unhappy customers aren't particularly great for the company's revenue. A few minutes of latency in one system can turn into hours of disruption in the real world. So... can cloud and AI solve it? Absolutely, if done right. Southwest and AWS Southwest has selected Amazon Web Services (AWS) as its primary cloud partner to help modernize its technology stack and transform how the airline runs, develops systems, and serves its customers. Through this collaboration, Southwest plans to move away from a predominantly on-premises infrastructure toward a cloud-based, AI and agent-enabled architecture on AWS by 2028 . 2028 is not far away from now (Jun 25, 2026). This is very ambitious considering the amount of work that needs to be done. From On-Prem to Cloud Moving an enterprise of this size from on-prem infrastructure to the cloud is way more complex than it sounds. It doesn't sound easy either. It's one of the hardest things you can ever do as a software engineer, DevOps engineer, architect, engineering manager, or anyone else involved in it. It involves a lot of steps, including but definitely not limited to: Assessing existing systems, dependencies, and infrastructure to understand what needs to move and how Defining a migration strategy (lift-and-shift, replatforming, or full refactoring to cloud-native architecture) Designing and bu
The problem Just saying "hi" to Claude Code costs ~31,000 tokens . I was paying $500+/month in API costs and had no idea where the tokens were going. So I built tokenwise — a free CLI that shows exactly where your AI coding agent wastes tokens. What it does tokenwise audit — Scan your instruction files It scans your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, and rules files, then shows: How many tokens each file costs per message Boilerplate the AI already knows ("Always write clean code") ALL-CAPS emphasis that doesn't help (NEVER, ALWAYS, MUST) Duplicate sections Unscoped rules that load when they shouldn't tokenwise scan — Analyze your sessions It reads your latest session logs and shows: Token breakdown by component (system prompt, history, tool output) Cache hit rate Top 3 "token hogs" with actionable tips Monthly cost projection The key insight Most people try to compress context (which makes the AI dumber). tokenwise measures first, then applies safe fixes. You can't optimize what you can't measure. Quick start npx @davizin713/tokenwise audit npx @davizin713/tokenwise scan Zero API calls. Zero LLM inference. 100% local. Free forever. Works with 11 agents Claude Code, OpenCode, Cursor, Aider, Cline, Codex CLI, Goose, Continue.dev, Windsurf, Augment, and Kilocode.

It took 20 years, but the Finance app arrives just in time to be packed full of AI.
Provisioning a Bedrock RAG knowledge base with S3 Vectors, without the hallucinated API calls. If you've asked an AI coding agent to set up AWS, you've seen it confidently invent a parameter, reach for a deprecated service, or burn ten minutes retrying against a service it never saw in training. The failure mode that bites hardest is the silent one: the agent thinks it succeeded, and you find out an hour later. I hit two of these while standing up the retrieval layer for a LangGraph support bot, an Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base backed by Amazon S3 Vectors. I'd love to say I caught both with deep AWS expertise. I caught them because the Agent Toolkit for AWS read the docs I hadn't. Both would have shipped, and neither did. The 30-second setup The goal: take a folder of markdown product docs and make them queryable by meaning, so an agent can answer "is this safe for color-treated hair?" from the real docs instead of guessing. Think of it as giving the agent a library it can search instead of making things up. That's the retrieval half of RAG, the foundation a LangGraph agent will later call as a tool. Four moving parts, wrapped in one managed service: Source bucket : an S3 bucket holding the docs. Embeddings : Amazon Titan Text Embeddings V2 (1024-dim vectors). Vector store : Amazon S3 Vectors. I chose it over OpenSearch Serverless because it has no always-on compute, the difference between cents and a monthly surprise for a demo that sits idle. Knowledge Base : Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases ties it together into one thing you can query with a retrieve call. To follow along, you need an AWS account, a non-root IAM identity with credentials configured locally, uv installed, and the toolkit installed in your agent. The fastest path across Kiro, Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex is the AWS CLI installer, aws configure agent-toolkit ; in Kiro you can instead add the AWS MCP Server to .kiro/settings/mcp.json (pin the mcp-proxy-for-aws version) and run npx skills add aws/age
Disclosur: Ini dari tim Nexotao — saya bahas gateway kami sendiri di bawah. Saya jaga sebatas fakta yang bisa kamu cek sendiri: semua nama model, context window, dan harga ada di halaman pricing kami, dan saya kasih linknya. Kalau kamu developer di Indonesia, kemungkinan besar pernah kejedot ini: API OpenAI dan Anthropic minta kartu kredit luar negeri . Nggak punya kartu, nggak bisa pakai API. Banyak dari kita mentok di situ. Solusi yang jalan sekarang: gateway lokal yang nerima QRIS / Rupiah . Ini versi jujurnya — gimana cara kerjanya, berapa biayanya, dan apa yang belum bisa. Dua model live, satu API yang kompatibel Lewat Nexotao kamu pakai dua model teks: Claude Opus 4.8 ( claude-opus-4-8 ) — context window 350.000 token DeepSeek-V4-Pro — context window 131.072 token Itu angka context window yang dipublikasikan apa adanya — tanpa pemotongan diam-diam. Endpoint-nya kompatibel dengan OpenAI dan Anthropic , jadi biasanya cukup ganti base URL sama key-nya. Format OpenAI: from openai import OpenAI client = OpenAI ( base_url = " https://api.nexotao.com/v1 " , api_key = " sk-nexo-... " ) resp = client . chat . completions . create ( model = " claude-opus-4-8 " , messages = [{ " role " : " user " , " content " : " Halo " }], ) print ( resp . choices [ 0 ]. message . content ) Format Anthropic: curl https://api.nexotao.com/v1/messages \ -H "x-api-key: sk-nexo-..." \ -H "anthropic-version: 2023-06-01" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"model":"claude-opus-4-8","max_tokens":256, "messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Halo"}]}' Cara bayarnya Top up saldo Rupiah via QRIS , mulai Rp10.000 . Tanpa kartu luar negeri. Bayar sesuai pakai — dipotong per token. Tanpa langganan , dan saldo nggak hangus. Tiap response ada header X-Cost-Rp , jadi kamu lihat biaya rupiah persis tiap request. Berapa biayanya Saat tulisan ini dibuat, Claude Opus 4.8 lewat gateway sekitar 70% lebih murah dari harga retail resmi (input) — tapi jangan percaya saya gitu aja. Halaman perbandingan har
Disclosure: This is the Nexotao team — I'm describing our own gateway below. I've kept it to facts you can verify yourself: every model name, context window, and price here is on our live pricing page, and I link it. If you're an Indonesian developer, you've probably hit this wall: the OpenAI and Anthropic APIs want a foreign credit card . No card, no API. A lot of us get stuck right there. The fix that works today: a local gateway that takes QRIS / Rupiah . Here's the honest version of how it works, what it costs, and what it doesn't do. Two live models, one compatible API Through Nexotao you call two text models: Claude Opus 4.8 ( claude-opus-4-8 ) — context window 350,000 tokens DeepSeek-V4-Pro — context window 131,072 tokens Those are the real, published context windows — no silent truncation. The endpoint is OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible , so you usually just change the base URL and key. OpenAI format: from openai import OpenAI client = OpenAI ( base_url = " https://api.nexotao.com/v1 " , api_key = " sk-nexo-... " ) resp = client . chat . completions . create ( model = " claude-opus-4-8 " , messages = [{ " role " : " user " , " content " : " Hello " }], ) print ( resp . choices [ 0 ]. message . content ) Anthropic format: curl https://api.nexotao.com/v1/messages \ -H "x-api-key: sk-nexo-..." \ -H "anthropic-version: 2023-06-01" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"model":"claude-opus-4-8","max_tokens":256, "messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}]}' How you pay Top up your Rupiah balance via QRIS , from Rp10,000 . No foreign card. Pay-as-you-go — deducted per token. No subscription , and the balance never expires. Every response carries an X-Cost-Rp header, so you see the exact rupiah cost of each request. What it costs At the time of writing, Claude Opus 4.8 runs roughly 70% below official retail input pricing through the gateway — but don't take my word for it. The comparison page shows live per-token rates and computes "vs official" automati
Twenty-five days on Hyperliquid. Sixty-five closed trades. P&L: -$9.21. Turns out that was the smallest wrong thing about it. The landing page showed -$7.72 because it uses a different P&L formula and excludes two open positions. Either number is small. Both numbers were also wrong about what they were telling me. I spent yesterday auditing every trade. The audit produced three findings I did not expect. Each one was a different kind of wrong. This is the first post in a series about ziom trader , my small AI-assisted crypto trading bot. "Ziom" is Polish for buddy, mate, or dude depending on who's talking. The name is unserious on purpose. The system is not. This is not a "watch me print money" series. The number is negative. Good. The point of the series is to track what happens when an LLM-assisted trading system moves from backtests and dashboards into live execution: where the bot is wrong, where the dashboard is wrong, where I am wrong, and which layer gets to prove it. Frame The natural first read of -$9.21 is "the strategy is losing money." That read assumes the displayed P&L attributes to the strategy. It does not. The number that shows up at the surface is the sum of at least three different layers: the strategy itself, the execution wrapper around it, and the monitoring layer that observes both. Each layer can author its own kind of failure. The displayed number compresses all three into a single dollar figure and loses the attribution on the way up. The framing that landed for me, from Daniel Nevoigt, is that methodology overview without forward-correlation disclosure is a log with good intentions. Same applies to P&L: total P&L without layer-attribution disclosure is a log with good intentions. You see the number. You do not see where it came from. Here is what I found when I forced the attribution. Layer 1: Shadow does not equal live Before deploying any lane, the system runs against backtested data. The shadow says "this strategy returns X over Y trade

Earlier this month, a German court ruled that Google is liable for its AI search summaries. Rejecting defenses like “users can check for themselves,” and that they generally know “that information generated with AI should not be blindly trusted,” the court held that the AI’s summaries are reflections of the company and “above all an expression of Google’s business activities.” This is the latest skirmish in a decades-old battle over internet publishing. Historically, there were two different types of information distributors: carriers and publishers. A phone company is a carrier. It’ll transmit whatever you say, even discussions about committing a crime. Words are words, and the phone company does not know—nor is it liable for—the words you choose to speak. A newspaper, on the other hand, is a publisher. It decides the words it publishes, and what quotes to include in its articles. If those words or quotes are defamatory or otherwise illegal, it’s liable...

We talk a lot about what AI can build. Code generation. Faster prototypes. Automated debugging. One-shot apps. Entire products created in hours. And yes, AI is powerful. But there is a quieter cost we are not talking about enough: AI hype is starting to weaken the motivation to learn core engineering deeply. That should worry us. 1. The "Why Bother?" Mindset When the dominant narrative says AI can generate code instantly, many engineers start asking: Why should I spend months mastering frameworks, architecture, databases, networking, or system design? At first, that sounds practical. If a tool can help, why not use it? But there is a difference between using AI to move faster and using AI to avoid understanding. Core engineering is not just about writing code. It is about knowing why something works, where it breaks, how it scales, and how to fix it when the generated answer is wrong. If we skip that learning, we create engineers who can prompt systems but cannot reason deeply about systems. That is a dangerous tradeoff. 2. The Funding and Praise Monopoly Right now, AI gets most of the attention. Budgets move toward AI. Leadership praises AI initiatives. Teams are pushed to add AI features even when the fundamentals are still weak. Meanwhile, excellent core engineering often goes unnoticed. The people improving reliability, performance, developer experience, infrastructure, security, and maintainability are still doing high-impact work. But in many places, that work is being treated as less exciting simply because it is not branded as AI. This creates pressure. Engineers feel they must pivot to AI, not always out of interest, but out of fear. Fear of being left behind. Fear of being replaced. Fear that their existing expertise is no longer valued. That is not innovation. That is anxiety disguised as progress. 3. The "AI-First" Discount There is another subtle problem. When someone builds something impressive today, the reaction is often: AI probably generated that.
