S3 Files lets developers mount any S3 bucket or prefix as a
filesystem on an EC2 instance, container, or Lambda function. It is
backed by EFS, which provides the tools developers already expect.

THE BUILDING BLOCK ECONOMY (8 MINUTE READ) [12]
The current most effective way to build software and get massive
adoption is to create building blocks that enable and encourage others
to build quantity over quality. This will ultimately lead to better
mainline software. Agents readily pick open and free software over
closed and commercial. Closed-source, commercial software is at a
massive disadvantage.

GOOD TASTE THE ONLY REAL MOAT LEFT (14 MINUTE READ) [13]
Competent output is now cheap thanks to AI. This gives people who can
tell what's generic, what's true, and what's worth pushing further an advantage. Taste is a side-effect of paying close attention to
reality. Combine taste with context, constraints, and the willingness
to build something different from the average.
