🧠 AI agents are cool. But deploying tools for them? Still feels like 2013. That’s why we’re bringing Docker magic to MCP. Enter: Docker MCP Catalog + Toolkit Launching this May. Built into Docker Hub. www.docker.com/blog/introdu...

GenAI is much more than chatbot interactions. If you already believe that and are have other cool use cases for GenAI, I'd love to chat! Feel free to reply or DM!

Never thought I would be so happy to have a pipeline work, but hey! Finally got a multi-architecture image build going to Google Artifact Registry, signed with Binary Authorization, and deploying to Google Cloud Run! 👏 More to come soon!

Be careful everyone! It's a dark and scary world out there!

Why are there so few examples of configuring gcloud in a GitHub Action pipeline using OIDC-based auth? This feels like it should be the go-to solution, but so many examples use static credentials. Feels... odd...

Welp... good start to the day. My password to log on to my machine stopped working (no idea why... which is a tad concerning...). Had to get the password reset (thanks IT!), but means I have to reauth literally everything. Fun morning! 😅

Yup! It hit 70F today and the kids immediately asked if they can run around outside in the sprinkler. Bring on the warmer weather!

The more I dig in and understand GenAI app development, the more I realize it's just like building any other app... just with a few different components. Most LLM interactions are simply hitting an API. Why is there so much stuff wrapping everything and making it more confusing? 🤷

Time to end my social hiatus. Lots of good and exciting things going on (despite the craziness in the world), so figured I could share some of it! Stay tuned for thoughts on software development, devops, containers (of course!), and other random stuff. 🎉

Using Spring Boot with Testcontainers? We've improved support so that your test setup is more lean. `@AutoConfigureTestDatabase` now detects containers and will automatically use that! If you need to revert to the old behavior, set `replace=Replace.AUTO_CONFIGURED)` on the annotation.

I’m excited to be speaking about containers and how they streamline development on Thursday at the rvaTech Code & Cloud event! It’s going to be a lot of fun and I’m excited to speak somewhere relatively local! 😊

To quote my wife… “They obviously have no neurodivergent people in their home. The entire thing is an assault on the senses. The sauna would be the only safe space in the entire home” 😆 Will have to follow for more #FridayNightZillow in the future!
