  @patientinvestor Not if you dollar cost averaged it . All great stocks/ companies have down years and it’s time to buy more. Generational wealth is building your position over 5-10yr window as long as the company is innovating and executing? Tesla is the new Amazon, Google , Nvidia, Apple….

  API Gateway - The Front Door of Your System This is: - Used by Netflix, Amazon, Uber, Stripe - Essential in microservices + SaaS - Frequently asked in interviews - Often misunderstood as just routing Let’s go deep 👇 The Core Problem Without API Gateway: Client → Service A Client → Service B Client → Service C Client → Service D Problems: - Too many endpoints - No centralized security - Duplicate logic (auth, logging) - Hard to manage clients - No rate limiting control What Is an API Gateway? API Gateway is: A single entry point for all client requests. It sits between: Clients ↔ Backend Services High-Level Flow Client → API Gateway → Microservices Core Responsibilities 1. Request Routing Routes requests to correct service. Example: /orders → Order Service /payments → Payment Service /users → User Service 2. Authentication & Authorization - Centralized security: - JWT validation - API key validation - OAuth / OIDC - RBAC checks 3. Rate Limiting & Throttling Protect backend: 100 req/sec per user 4. Request/Response Transformation Convert: Mobile request → backend format Backend response → client format 5. Aggregation Combine multiple service calls: Dashboard → orders + payments + profile Single API call for client. 6. Logging & Monitoring Centralized: - Logs - Metrics - Tracing 7. Caching Cache frequent responses: GET /products Improves performance. Example Flow Client requests dashboard: GET /dashboard Gateway: - Auth check - Calls: - User Service - Order Service - Payment Service - Aggregates response - Returns single payload API Gateway vs Load Balancer Feature Load Balancer API Gateway Layer Network Application Routing Basic Smart Auth ❌ ✅ Rate limiting ❌ ✅ Transformation ❌ ✅ API Gateway Patterns 1. Edge Gateway Single gateway for all clients. 2. Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) Separate gateway per client: Mobile → Mobile BFF Web → Web BFF Optimized responses per client. 3. Service Mesh (Internal) Handles service-to-service traffic (not client-facing). Popular API Gateways - Kong - NGINX - AWS API Gateway - Apigee - Spring Cloud Gateway - Envoy Challenges - Single Point of Failure Gateway must be highly available. - Latency Overhead Extra hop in request path. - Complexity Too many responsibilities → heavy gateway. Architect-Level Insight API Gateway should be: Thin but powerful Avoid business logic inside gateway. Best Practices - Keep stateless - Use caching - Apply rate limits - Use circuit breakers - Scale horizontally - Separate BFF when needed Real-World Insight In large systems: API Gateway + BFF + Service Mesh all coexist. Final Insight API Gateway transforms: Many services → One clean interface It is the control plane of your APIs.

  @QTWIQ I generally use next day delivery from Amazon. You’ll need 2 strengths: 200c and 30c, from Boiron. Take the 200 for a couple of days, then as you see improvement, switch to the 30. Recovering from B6 toxicity nerve damage, hypericum dumbed down the pain enough so I could walk.

  @AAStack Haha I bought an Amazon one for cheap, love it. I bought one from “We The People” holsters, 3x the price, I don’t like it because it’s bulkier and had the same problem as you. You never know when ordering online

  this week is basically the super bowl of 2026 for markets. five of the seven biggest companies in the world report, the fed talks, and PCE drops. if you only pay attention to one week this year, make it this one. monday april 27 nothing major on macro. domino's and verizon before open, cadence design and nucor after close. cadence is the quiet one to watch, semiconductor design software is a clean read on chip demand into the back half. tuesday april 28 this is when the chaos starts. coca cola and GM premarket. consumer confidence at 10am. wednesday april 29 (the big one) fomc decision at 2pm. consensus has the funds rate held at 3.75 percent. powell presser at 2:30. nobody really cares about the decision, everyone cares about whether powell sounds like a june cut is on the table or not. then after the close, you get hit with microsoft, meta, and alphabet all on the same day. amazon also reports this week. four of the four hyperscalers in basically a 48 hour window. thursday april 30 gdp first preliminary, core PCE for march, employment cost index. then apple after close. apple is interesting cuz tim cook just announced he is stepping down sept 1 and john ternus takes over. first earnings call under the new transition. friday may 1 exxon and chevron premarket. ISM manufacturing. what i am actually watching 1. capex guidance from the hyperscalers. the four of them combined are projected to spend over 470 billion this year on AI infrastructure, up from around 350 billion in 2025. that is the entire bull thesis for the AI trade. if any of them blink on capex, the semis trade unwinds fast. nvidia, amd, avgo, all of them. 2. azure growth at @MSFT. they have been stuck at 26 to 27 percent growth for three straight quarters. msft is down 10 percent ytd while the rest of mag 7 ran. if azure reaccelerates, msft is the biggest snapback trade in the group. if it stalls again, the AI software thesis takes a hit. 3. powell's tone on june. fed funds futures are pricing in roughly a coin flip for a june cut. if powell sounds dovish, small caps and rate sensitive stuff rips. if hawkish, the opposite. 4. core PCE thursday. consensus is around 2.8 to 2.9. anything north of 3 and the june cut narrative dies that morning, before apple even reports. 5. apple guidance under the cook to ternus transition. first one. iphone cycle commentary matters, china matters, services growth matters. the setup heading in mag 7 has run hard into this. $GOOG , $AMZN $META and $MSFT all up more than 10 percent this month. $AAPL up 6. that means the bar is high. beats get sold if guidance is soft, misses get crushed. s&p closed friday at 7165, nasdaq at 24836, both back near all time highs after the april chop. dow lagged. tech leadership is intact but stretched. oil sitting near 95 on the strait of hormuz situation. that is a separate inflation risk nobody is fully pricing. how i am positioning trimmed some of the runup in mag 7 names going into wednesday. holding core but took the easy money off. cash on the sidelines waiting for the post earnings dislocations. some of the best setups of the year happen the morning after a mag 7 print where the initial reaction is wrong. if msft sells off on a azure miss but capex stays disciplined, that is probably a buy not a sell. if amzn rallies on aws but capex blows out higher, that might actually be a fade. the market has not figured out that more capex is not always good news anymore. big tech is no longer one trade. they are diverging. this week tells you which ones are pulling ahead and which are falling behind in the AI race. dont fomo into anything before wednesday. let the prints come, let the dust settle, then act. the worst trades of the year happen between monday and wednesday of weeks like this one. not financial advice, just how i am thinking about it. what are you watching this week.

  @amazon I placed two orders on @AmazonIN on 21st April with an initial delivery date of 23rd April, which was later pushed to 26th April. Now it's already delayed again and still not delivered. This is disappointing. Kindly resolve this issue ASAP and provide a clear update.

  There is one major reason why anime fans choose pirated sites over official platforms like Crunchyroll. These sites have almost every anime and are well structured, so I can easily find and watch shows. I can also download episodes to watch later. On the other hand, Crunchyroll has only about 10% of the anime available compared to pirated sites. So imagine paying money to watch a series that doesn’t even exist on the official platform. There are more issues too - some anime are exclusive to Netflix or Amazon Prime Video, so you can’t watch them even after paying for one service. But on pirated sites, you can watch everything easily with a single click. Before shutting down sites like 9anime, hianime, Zoro to, and others, official platforms should at least add 50% more anime to their libraries, because most people can afford a dollar a month.

  9. The Amazon Leadership Principles Resume Aligner "You are a senior recruiter at Amazon who evaluates every resume against Amazon's 16 Leadership Principles — because at Amazon, FAANG companies, and top tech firms, cultural alignment matters as much as technical skill, and your resume must prove both. I need my resume aligned with the specific values and culture of my target company. Align: - Company values research: identify the 5-8 core values or leadership principles my target company publicly promotes - Bullet point mapping: tag each resume achievement with the company value it demonstrates - Coverage gap scan: which company values have ZERO representation on my resume - Gap-filling bullets: write 3-5 new achievement statements from my real experience that fill the value gaps - Amazon alignment: if targeting Amazon, map to Customer Obsession, Ownership, Bias for Action, and Deliver Results - Google alignment: if targeting Google, emphasize Googleyness, intellectual humility, and collaborative problem-solving - Meta alignment: if targeting Meta, highlight Move Fast, Be Bold, and Focus on Impact - Startup alignment: emphasize scrappiness, wearing multiple hats, and building from zero to one - Consulting alignment: highlight structured thinking, client-facing impact, and leadership under ambiguity - Values-first summary: rewrite my professional summary to immediately signal cultural fit in the first 2 sentences Format as a values-aligned resume with annotations showing which company principle each bullet demonstrates. My target: [PASTE YOUR RESUME, TARGET COMPANY NAME, AND THEIR PUBLISHED VALUES OR LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES]"

  @CoachWil62 I make my own. Buy Madagascar vanilla beans on Amazon, buy some Costco brand vodka. I also buy small 4-6 oz brown bottles from Amazon. Split the vanilla beans down one side, fill each bottle w/them. Add vodka to just about the top-leave 1/2 inch so you can shake.

  @KobeissiLetter Read the names on that list. UPS, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft; these aren't distressed companies doing survival cuts. These are the most profitable firms on earth telling you they don't need the people anymore. Every "efficiency initiative" is a euphemism for the same math: AI capex up, headcount down, margin expansion delivered. This isn't a hiring cycle correction. It's a credit story wearing an AI costume. The jobs aren't coming back because the model that replaced them doesn't ask for a raise. $SPX

  @SCVeteran803 @ClownWorld Nobody should care, but the problem is that Amazon/Twitch gave him a platform to stream to a young audience of tens of thousands of people at a time. Young people’s minds are learning from guys like this. That’s why people care. Worse than a teacher being this way.

  Amazon has no control over what sellers deliver Customer support is inefficient and dismissive Genuine issues are ignored or deflected This is not just poor service — it feels like outright cheating. Highly disappointing and completely unacceptable.

  @SprigStan It really does seem to be a budget managment issue first and foremost but I wonder if its an internal or external choice- as if, if the manager at the studio/director is demanding VAs so expensive or if Amazon is demanding said VAs

  @x_esk_x That just goes to show how much Amazon has left to own. They should buy Costco next. Or Walmart. On the server side, Amazon needs to acquire Cloud Flare.

  @Trenchboyjaime @Sajeel_Purewal To make sure Amazon doesn't delete or make your books inaccessible. You need an Amazon account to use their kindles. But then again there are probably other ereaders out there that already solve that problem.

  @LoneStarChica My experience with Amazon is driver ran over my water well and didn’t say anything or leave a note. We caught him coming back down our road. Problem was he didn’t speak English. You can’t send people to delivery in areas when they can’t even talk to people.
