I had so much fun working on this video. AWS has so many services, but the features within each are even more impressive... I'll be exploring these in fast-paced 5-minute videos, starting with Lambda. Hope you enjoy and learn something (link in the first comment)

tip 2: batch record a bunch of content when you have the time then publish gradually according to a regular schedule.

I've always admired those cool sites that provide a separate sub-domain for each user or organization, like @getsentry, @hashnode, and more... I've made a video to demonstrate how to achieve the same using @vercel and #nextjs (link in the first comment)

Ever wondered how platforms like Discord update their favicon to display unread message counts? Or how GitHub changes its favicon to reflect the status of your PR—deploying, failed, or succeeded? 👇👇👇

Why use DuckDuckGo? One word: !Bangs. For instance, to avoid getting distracted on the YouTube home feed, I type something like "rust tokio tutorial !yt" on the browser search bar for instant results. There's a !Bang for many other sites too: duckduckgo.com/bangs
