The Vercel Plugin on Claude Code wants to read all your prompts!

๐Ÿ’ฅ Check out this awesome post from TechCrunch ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿ“‚ **Category**: AI,Enterprise,Amazon,AWS,CAPEX,OpenAI,Andy Jassy ๐Ÿ“Œ **What Youโ€™ll Learn**: Amazon CEO Andy Jassy's annual shareholder letter reads something like a Kendrick Lamar score, if the rapper were an executive talking about the company and not a poetic Pulitzer Prize-winning musician. Meaning you have to know the history to understand all the competitors Jassy is targeting, along with sweet personal stories about his unrealized dream of becoming a sportscaster and watching hockey games with his father. Of course, Jassy doesn't throw out the challenge directly. It takes a more nuanced approach. For example,…

Yes, it was a bit buggy because sometimes they would drive through…
