Jesse Pollak grew up in Washington, DC, attending a Quaker school through graduating in high school. He played competitive soccer, which was a huge part of his life. Eventually, he moved to SoCal to attend school at Berkley. He got the bug to start a company, and only lasted 2 years at school - before he ventured out on his own. Eventually, his company got acquired by Coinbase, which opened up a whole new world for him. Outside of tech, he is married with a 4 month old boy. He doesn't drink caffeine, but daily, enjoys a decaf cappuccino.In December 2021, Jesse and his team were wondering in the desert for a while, trying to figure out what was next on-chain. After considering what AWS and Heroic was for Web 2.0, they figured out that in order to go build the apps that companies like Coinbase had, they needed a foundational layer in the ecosystem to fuel that development.This is the creation story of Base.SponsorsPaddle.comSema SoftwarePropelAuthPostmanMeilisearchMailtrap.TECH Domains (https://get.tech/codestory)Linkshttps://www.base.org/https://www.coinbase.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessepollak/Our Sponsors:* Check out Vanta: https://vanta.com/CODESTORYSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Send me a messageIn this episode of the Sustainable Supply Chain podcast, I sat down with Dr Erik Garcell, Director of Quantum Enterprise Development at Classiq, to explore how quantum computing is moving from theoretical buzz to practical tool, and what that means for supply chains.We talked about why quantum's real strength lies in optimisation: solving incredibly complex problems like route planning, inventory management, or energy grid design far faster than classical systems ever could. Erik explained how quantum is already being used via cloud platforms (yes, even on AWS), and why enterprises, from BMW to Mitsubishi Chemicals, are experimenting with it now, not later.We got into real-world use cases too: dynamic logistics recalculations in response to disruptions, quantum-enhanced digital twins for EV battery design, and how this tech might support real-time, low-carbon decision-making across vast supplier networks.This isn't about replacing classical computing, it's about adding a powerful new tool to the box. Erik also gave practical advice for supply chain leaders: how to start engaging with quantum now, when upskilling your existing team makes more sense than hiring PhDs, and what pitfalls to avoid.If you're wondering when, or even if, quantum computing will matter to your business, this is the episode for you.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I take a look at what the Oracle-AWS collaboration means for the future of multi-cloud innovation and customer value.Highlights00:22 — I think we can say now there's romance in the cloud. Oracle and AWS are doing things in a collaborative way that they've never done before. The customers are swooning over this cloud romance. This is all built around the Oracle Database@AWS, part of a multi-cloud deal.01:09 — This inclusion now, in addition to the heavy competition, also some collaborative effort is really a big benefit to customers. Just a few of the outcomes for customers of this relationship: they get more choice, they're able to move on things more quickly, the security is better. They gain greater simplicity in how they do things.02:25 — So the final piece about this is: What are we going to see here? Is this going to lead to a softer, gentler range of competition in the Cloud Wars? Are AWS and Oracle going to be like the lion and the lamb and lie down together and be best friends forever? I don't think so. But what they need to be able to do here is continue to find ways to work together where it's appropriate.03:36 — So, I wish Oracle and AWS all the best. I hope they're able to balance this new love affair with also a sense that they're going to continue to brawl frequently and vigorously. That's good for everybody: them, their customers, and the people who benefit from what those customers do. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

I am joined by Blakely Graham, who is a board advisor to Left Main REI, host of the Not All Business Podcast, Founder and former CEO of TaskRay⁠. This one was a long time coming. On a personal note, my time at TaskRay was some of my most formative. I found a balance while there between my previous experience of excellence with true work life balance and a focus on values that stays with me. I am so grateful that Blakely and team took a chance in hiring me for a role that I was almost kind of qualified for and her friendship since then.I'll do my best to summarize this episode, but it's more than worth a listen because I don't have enough characters to summarize it all. Blakely's Salesforce journey starts in 2001 and spans a ton of roles and experiences. We dig deep into her experience founding TaskRay 15 years ago in 2010 as Bracket Labs as one of the early ISVs on the AppExchange where VCs told her that her business was not investable and it was "a lifestyle business" at best because the Salesforce ecosystem was too small. She grew it in spite of that and by the time they sold the business, they were getting endless inbound interest.We talk about culture and values and why they were so important to her and the team at TaskRay. One of the core values was Connection that was the inspiration for Project Connection where the founders and I went to 5 cities and sat across the table from over 20 customers without an agenda outside of learning how our customers used the app. It drove focus for years to come that had nearly endless valuable outcomes like clarity of product roadmap, dramatically reduced churn, drove brand/marketing strategy, and much more. She shares how founder conflict snuck up on her with Eric Wu as well as how they (eventually) resolved it. As we switched gears to talk about gtm, Blakely shares how TaskRay evolved from the primary source of leads being the AppExchange with mostly SMB customers to more enterprise selling with content strategies, partnership motions, events, and more knobs we turned. The lesson is you are going to try stuff - some will work, some won't but you have to innovate and measure.We talk about how to select and what you can expect from an advisor. At TaskRay, we rolled an advisor program out modeled after a talk Blakely listened to from Andy Wilson, founder of Logikcull. Shoutout to Phil Stern who was my sales leader advisor at TaskRay who helped me avoid many mistakes.Show notes:Jolene Chan's LinkedIn where she was talking about a personal board of directors: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jolenec/Not All Business podcast with Heather Cooper: https://www.linkedin.com/company/not-all-business/Podcast with Andy Wilson from Logikcull where he discusses his advisor program that we modeled TaskRay's after: it starts at 14:05 and lasts 4 minutes  starts at 14:05 and lasts 4 minutes -https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/saastr-236-logikcull-ceo-andy-wilson-on-%240-to-%2410m/id1089973241?i=1000439148009This episode is brought to you by ⁠⁠⁠Invisory⁠⁠⁠.

【欢迎订阅】 每天早上5:30，准时更新。 【阅读原文】 标题：Jeff Bezos 2.0: new wife, newish job, old vision The Amazon founder's semi-retirement plan 正文：Jeff Bezos lives by a simple precept: limit the number of things you would wish you had done differently when you are 80. He calls it, with habitual nerdiness, the “regret-minimisation framework”. In 1994 it led him to forsake cushy work at a hedge fund to start Amazon. It is behind the big bets, from the Prime subscription service to AWS cloud computing, that have made the company into a technology titan valued at $2.3trn. It also explains why six years ago Mr. Bezos left his first wife of 25 years for a former TV presenter, Lauren Sánchez. And why he blew, on some estimates, $50m to rent out Venice for three days for their opulent nuptials starting on June 26th. 知识点：precept n. /ˈpriːsept/ a general rule intended to regulate behavior or thought. 准则；戒律 e.g. Honesty is a fundamental precept in many cultures. 诚实是许多文化中的基本准则。 获取外刊的完整原文以及精讲笔记，请关注微信公众号「早安英文」，回复“外刊”即可。更多有意思的英语干货等着你！ 【节目介绍】 《早安英文-每日外刊精读》，带你精读最新外刊，了解国际最热事件：分析语法结构，拆解长难句，最接地气的翻译，还有重点词汇讲解。 所有选题均来自于《经济学人》《纽约时报》《华尔街日报》《华盛顿邮报》《大西洋月刊》《科学杂志》《国家地理》等国际一线外刊。 【适合谁听】 1、关注时事热点新闻，想要学习最新最潮流英文表达的英文学习者 2、任何想通过地道英文提高听、说、读、写能力的英文学习者 3、想快速掌握表达，有出国学习和旅游计划的英语爱好者 4、参加各类英语考试的应试者（如大学英语四六级、托福雅思、考研等） 【你将获得】 1、超过1000篇外刊精读课程，拓展丰富语言表达和文化背景 2、逐词、逐句精确讲解，系统掌握英语词汇、听力、阅读和语法 3、每期内附学习笔记，包含全文注释、长难句解析、疑难语法点等，帮助扫除阅读障碍。

Chris Adams is joined by Adrian Cockcroft, former VP of Cloud Architecture Strategy at AWS, a pioneer of microservices at Netflix, and contributor to the Green Software Foundation's Real Time Cloud project. They explore the evolution of cloud sustainability—from monoliths to microservices to serverless—and what it really takes to track carbon emissions in real time. Adrian explains why GPUs offer rare transparency in energy data, how the Real Time Cloud dataset works, and what's holding cloud providers back from full carbon disclosure. Plus, he shares his latest obsession: building a generative AI-powered house automation system using agent swarms.

Welcome to Sridhar's newsletter & Podcast (Click Play button for Audio version of the Post). Appreciate you being here, so we can connect weekly on interesting topics. Add your email id here to get this directly to your inbox.Do subscribe to show Minimalist Techie over Apple Or Spotify Or YouTube podcast (Click on Hyperlinks for Apple Or on Spotify Or on YouTube) or hear it over email you received through my subscription or on my website.This weekly newsletter is mostly about the article, books, videos etc. I read or watch or my views on different topics which revolves around my head during the week.Point discussed in this Podcast,Microsoft: The Quiet Giant's ResurgenceKey Growth Drivers:* Cloud Dominance with Azure * Enterprise Software Powerhouse * Strategic Acquisitions: Acquisitions like LinkedIn and, more recently, the massive acquisition of Activision Blizzard, have diversified Microsoft's revenue streams and expanded its reach into new sectors like professional networking and gaming. The gaming division, encompassing Xbox and Game Pass, is a significant part of its ecosystem.* Early AI Integration: Microsoft was quick to invest heavily in AI, particularly through its partnership with OpenAI. This foresight allowed them to rapidly integrate cutting-edge AI capabilities into their existing product suite, from Azure AI services for developers to AI-powered features in Office (like Copilot) and Windows. This early move positioned them as a leader in the generative AI race, attracting new enterprise clients eager to leverage these new tools.This consistent execution and strategic vision have been key to Microsoft's impressive stock performance and market capitalization growth over the past half-decade. They've effectively shed any lingering perceptions of being a "legacy tech" company and firmly cemented their position as an innovation leader.Google (Alphabet): AI's Grand Ambition and Search's EvolutionAI's Ascendance with Gemini:* Catching Up Fast: While some might argue Google started a bit later in the generative AI race compared to certain competitors, their speed of development and integration with Gemini AI has been truly remarkable. Gemini is now a seriously impressive large language model, and its capabilities are expanding rapidly.* Unmatched Reach for AI Integration: What gives Google an almost unfair advantage is its massive market share and user base across its core products. Think about it: Google Search, Android, Chrome, YouTube, Google Workspace – these are platforms used by billions. Integrating AI, specifically Gemini, into these widely adopted products means AI features can reach an unprecedented number of people quickly and seamlessly. This integration isn't just about search; it's about enhancing productivity in Docs, creating content in YouTube, and smart features across Android devices.The Search Conundrum and AI's Role:* Search Revenue Dominance: Google Search has historically been, and remains, the primary engine of Alphabet's revenue, primarily through advertising. The concern for some analysts has been that as users increasingly turn to AI chatbots for answers, the traditional "blue link" search model might see reduced engagement, potentially impacting ad revenue.* The AI Mode and Future of Search: However, Google isn't sitting still. They've already integrated "AI Overviews" (or "AI mode") directly into Google Search results, providing synthesized answers directly. The challenge, and the opportunity, is to evolve Search in a way that provides instant, AI-powered information while still maintaining a valuable advertising ecosystem. If Google can swiftly adapt its advertising models to this new AI-first search paradigm, their extensive reach could turn this potential threat into a massive growth driver. The rapid progress with Gemini suggests they are indeed acting quickly to address this.* Cloud Growth (Google Cloud Platform): Similar to Microsoft and Amazon, Google Cloud Platform (GCP) is a significant and growing part of Alphabet's business, competing for enterprise cloud workloads and contributing to diversification beyond advertising.So, while there are always questions around how AI will reshape traditional revenue streams, Google's aggressive AI development with Gemini and its unparalleled user base position it strongly for future innovation and monetization.Amazon: E-commerce King and Cloud PowerhouseMoving on to Amazon, a company that, like the others, continues to perform exceptionally well. Amazon is a fascinating duality: it's the undisputed king of e-commerce, but also a dominant force in cloud computing.E-commerce Resilience:* Consumer Spending: Despite economic fluctuations, Amazon's e-commerce platform continues to thrive. It benefits from habitual consumer behavior, its vast selection, competitive pricing, and unparalleled logistics network (Prime shipping being a huge draw).* Advertising Growth: Increasingly, Amazon's e-commerce platform is also a major advertising hub, allowing brands to reach consumers directly at the point of purchase. This is a high-margin business that continues to grow rapidly.Amazon Web Services (AWS) - The Profit Engine:* Cloud Market Leader: AWS remains the global leader in cloud infrastructure services. Its reliability, extensive suite of services, and deep integration with countless businesses make it incredibly sticky. AWS consistently accounts for a disproportionate share of Amazon's overall profitability, subsidizing and fueling other ventures.* AI for Enterprise: AWS is also a key player in providing AI tools and infrastructure for businesses. From foundational models to machine learning services, AWS enables countless companies to build and deploy their own AI solutions, ensuring Amazon's role in the AI revolution extends far beyond its own consumer products.New Ventures:* Logistics and Delivery Network: Amazon's continuous investment in its own logistics infrastructure gives it a massive competitive advantage, enabling faster and more reliable deliveries.* Healthcare (Amazon Pharmacy, One Medical): Amazon continues to make inroads into the healthcare sector, leveraging its logistical prowess and customer-centric approach to disrupt traditional models.* Entertainment (Prime Video, Amazon Music): These services enhance the Prime subscription value, creating a sticky ecosystem that keeps users engaged within Amazon's orbit.Amazon's strength lies in its ability to innovate and expand into new sectors while maintaining dominance in its core businesses. Its cloud services provide a robust financial backbone, allowing it to take calculated risks and continue its relentless pursuit of market expansion.Each of these companies faces unique challenges and possesses distinct advantages. But what's clear is their relentless pursuit of innovation, their massive scale, and their profound impact on how we live and work. Watching their strategies unfold, particularly in the realm of artificial intelligence and new computing paradigms, will be fascinating in the years to come.That is all for this week.

In a recent episode of The New Stack Agents livestream, Antje Barth, AWS Developer Advocate for Generative AI, discussed the growing developer interest in building agentic and multi-agent systems. While foundational model knowledge is now common, Barth noted that developers are increasingly focused on tools, frameworks, and protocols for scaling agent-based applications. She emphasized the complexity of deploying such systems, particularly around navigating human-centric interfaces and minimizing latency in multi-agent communication.Barth highlighted AWS's support for developers through tools like Amazon Q CLI and the newly launched open-source Strands SDK, which AWS used internally to accelerate development cycles. Strands enables faster, flexible agentic system development, while services like Bedrock Agents offer a managed, enterprise-ready solution.Security was another key theme. Barth stressed that safety must be a “day one” priority, with built-in support for authentication, secure communication, and observability. She encouraged developers to leverage AWS's GenAI Innovation Center and active open-source communities to build robust, scalable, and secure agentic systems.Learn more from The New Stack about AWS' support for developers through tools that support multiple agents: Code in Your Native Tongue: Amazon Q Developer Goes Global AWS Launches Its Take on an Open Source AI Agents SDKAmazon's Bedrock Can Now 'Check' AI for Hallucinations Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.

A daily Chronicle of AI Innovations in July 11 2025Hello AI Unraveled Listeners,In today's AI Daily News,

Reliable software shouldn't be an accident, but for most developers it is. Jeremy Edberg, CEO of DBOS and the guy who scaled Reddit and Netflix, joins Corey Quinn to talk about his wild idea of saving your entire app into a database so it can never really break. They chat about Jeremy's "build for three" rule, a plan for scale without going crazy, why he set Reddit's servers to Arizona time to dodge daylight saving time, and how DBOS makes your app as tough as your data. Plus, Jeremy shares his brutally honest take on distributed systems cargo cult, autonomous AI testing, and why making it easy for customers to leave actually keeps them around.Public Bio: Jeremy is an angel investor and advisor for various incubators and startups, and the CEO of DBOS. He was the founding Reliability Engineer for Netflix and before that he ran ops for reddit as its first engineering hire. Jeremy also tech-edited the highly acclaimed AWS for Dummies, and he is one of the six original AWS Heroes. He is a noted speaker in serverless computing, distributed computing, availability, rapid scaling, and cloud computing, and holds a Cognitive Science degree from UC Berkeley.Show Highlights(02:08) - What DBOS actually does(04:08) - "Everything as a database" philosophy and why it works(08:26) - "95% of people will never outgrow one Postgres machine"(10:13) - Jeremy's Arizona time zone hack at Reddit (and whether it still exists)(11:22) - "Build for three" philosophy without over-engineering(17:16) - Extracting data from mainframes older than the founders(19:00) - Autonomous testing with AI trained on your app's history(20:07) - The hardest part of dev tools(22:00) - Corey's brutal pricing page audit methodology(27:15) - Why making it easy to leave keeps customers around(34:11) - Learn more about DBOSLinksDBOS website: https://dbos.devDBOS documentation: https://docs.dbos.devDBOS GitHub: https://github.com/dbos-incDBOS Discord community: https://discord.gg/fMqo9kDJeremy Edberg on Twitter: https://x.com/jedberg?lang=enAWS Heroes program: https://aws.amazon.com/developer/community/heroes/

What if AWS had its own version of Killed by Google? Well… turns out it kind of does.In this episode of AWS Bites, we explore the AWS Product Lifecycle page, the official place where AWS quietly lists products and services that are being deprecated, shut down, or closed to new customers. If you rely on AWS in production, this is a page you'll want to bookmark.We walk through what's on the list today, from Amazon Pinpoint to IoT Analytics and beyond, and we even throw in some predictions of what might be next to hit the chopping block. App Runner vs Beanstalk? API Gateway REST vs HTTP? Let the speculation begin!Big shoutout to fourTheorem for powering yet another episode of AWS Bites.

Hablamos del talento en IA: Apple acaba de crear sus “Super-Intelligence Labs” y pone sobre la mesa cheques de ocho dígitos para seducir a cerebros que hoy trabajan en OpenAI, una maniobra que Meta y otras big tech se apresuran a imitar. De ahí pasamos a desnudar las tripas de Figma y su S-1: 821 millones de ARR, un crecimiento del 48 % y márgenes brutos del 90 %, aunque con una factura anual en AWS que ronda los 100 millones. Compartimos, además, las lecciones de organización de producto extraídas de un gigante europeo con miles de ingenieros: OKRs bien planteados, “tríos” que combinan diseño, ingeniería y negocio, y managers que por fin cargan objetivos reales.También hablamos sobre los riesgos del trabajo remoto: entrevistas atendidas por bots, identidades falsas y los métodos para detectar fraudes antes de que el equipo pague las consecuencias. Volvemos a la luz con la adrenalina de los prototipos y los deadlines semanales: enseñar maquetas y vídeos cada viernes convirtió un proyecto etéreo en un motor de hype colectivo. También desgranamos tácticas para evitar hallucinations en los LLMs cuando te juegas datos internos. Y, al final comentamos la fiebre de Granola, la herramienta que graba y resume todas las llamadas; el meme eterno de que “Nvidia siempre gana”; y la llegada a X de un ex-founder experto en viralidad juvenil que promete construir el próximo gran producto desde dentro de la plataforma.

In this episode of Builders Wanted, we are joined by Deepak Singh, Vice President of Developer Agents and Experiences at AWS, and Inbal Shani, Chief Product Officer and Head of R&D at Twilio. They discuss what it means to build with AI, the evolution of developer tools, and how they are assisting customers in leveraging AI for customer engagement and innovation. The conversation covers the importance of curiosity, adaptability, and trust in this new era of AI-powered development.-------------------Key Takeaways:Developers need to be curious and adaptable to thrive in the rapidly evolving AI landscape.Successful AI implementation relies on building trust, simplifying processes, and focusing on customer outcomes.Enabling experimentation while managing risk helps organizations fully leverage the potential of AI.-------------------“It is very easy for a dev team or a product team to say, ah, this is the best way of doing something and we are going to follow this through wherever we want to. Instead of working with customers to understand, do you even care? I think with AI it's very important to take constraints away.  So if you combine listening to customers and unconstraining your thinking, you can accomplish a lot.” – Deepak Singh“  When you're using AI, you need to understand that using a model, training a model, having the data, having a feedback loop, all of that is not a magical thing that just happens by itself. It requires investment and you need to be serious about it. When looking to take AI into production, you need to understand what is the complexity of the problem you're trying to solve, and how to deploy the right AI solution to really solve that problem versus swinging by.” – Inbal Shani-------------------Episode Timestamps:‍*(02:35) - What it means to be a builder and the hardest part about building tools ‍*(10:50) - The most exciting shift happening in the developer ecosystem‍*(21:17) - How to manage risk with the pace of innovation ‍*(26:15) - What people underestimate about building AI products at scale ‍*(40:57) - A recent signal that excites Deepak and Inbal about the future ‍*(43:52) - Quick hits-------------------Links:Connect with Deepak on LinkedInConnect with Inbal on LinkedInConnect with Kailey on LinkedInLearn more about Caspian Studios-------------------SponsorBuilders Wanted is brought to you by Twilio – the Customer Engagement Platform that helps builders turn real-time data into meaningful customer experiences.

The EU cloud exit movement is reshaping how European organizations think about data storage and sovereignty. Companies across Europe are moving away from US-based cloud providers like Microsoft 365, AWS, and Google Workspace due to concerns about the Cloud Act and data privacy regulations.In this episode, Curtis and Prasanna explore the backup implications of this major shift. They discuss the challenges of replacing comprehensive platforms like Microsoft 365 with multiple EU-based providers, the complexities of bringing services back in-house, and why the 3-2-1 backup rule becomes even more critical during these transitions.Whether organizations choose local providers or decide to self-host their infrastructure, data protection remains paramount. The hosts share real-world examples of failed backup strategies, including the Rackspace Exchange disaster and OVH's data center fire, to illustrate why third-party backup solutions are necessary regardless of your hosting choice.

Arun Sundaram joins Diane King Hall to preview this week's Amazon Prime Day event which will run for 4 days. He believes the decision to lengthen the ecommerce shopping event means Amazon (AMZN) has a large inventory ready to move. CFRA has a Strong Buy rating and a $248 price target on Amazon, highlighting the company's operating margin improvement as a key point of strength. Aside from the company's ecommerce side, Arun adds that the AWS and Advertising business segments are significant to future growth.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
