Infrastructure, AWS, AI and Jobs, HTMX & more

Today we have a special guest. We have Jeremy Daly, who’s been in the cloud space for a while. Jeremy is the co-founder of Ampt, which is building an abstraction infrastructure layer on top of AWS, just to make it simpler to sift through all the different options and develop on AWS and do best practices there. So we wanted to get his opinions on a lot of different infrastructure stuff that he's seeing and how AI is changing development. We even talk about some front end stuff at the end and HTMX and whether it's real, whether it's a troll. So lots of good stuff in this episode.
