unrelated rant, but I'm still salty about it.

needed to send "raw" http requests instead of using their bloated sdk for reasons, and requests failed with "content-type: application/json" header, but succeeded with "content-type: application/x-amz-json-1.0". get out of here with that nonsense.

that's honestly a leak of internal details lol. (leaky abstractions)

because internally most apps are using the coral framework, which is kind of old, using this json format as it has a well defined shape for inputs, outputs, and errors.
