"Vibe coding is fine, but only if you pay close attention to what is being built. We can't just pull a lever on your IDE and hope that something good comes out."

That's not software engineering. That's gambling."

Werner Vogels' Final Keynote: The Renaissance Developer Era

Werner Vogels ends his 14-year keynote streak by handing out printed newspapers and warning developers about "verification debt." His parting message: AI generates code faster than humans can understand it. The work is yours, not the tools.

"Evaluating your systems regularly is as important, if not more so, than building them in the first place. Because your systems will run much longer than the time it takes to design them." -- #WernerVogels #aws

Monoliths are not dinosaurs

Building evolvable software systems is a strategy, not a religion. And revisiting your architectures with an open mind is a must.

From #SystemsThinking over loosely coupled asynchronous architectures to 3D modelling and #QuantumComputing: Even if (or just because) they always include a sales pitch, I love the keynotes by #WernerVogels, #Amazon VP and #CTO.

It's inspiring to see research become a product.
