In this fascinating episode, we delve deep into the world of air-to-air (A2A) heat pump systems for domestic properties. We were incredibly fortunate to be joined by two distinguished guests: Es Tresidder, a consultant specialising in Passivhaus design and low-carbon building design optimisation, and Michael Cosham, a seasoned HVAC engineer with 47 years of invaluable experience.Our conversation began by exploring air-to-air systems in general, including Michael's personal experience building an A2A system for his first home on Canvey Island. Es then shared insights into the A2A system installed in his own highly efficient home, providing a real-world perspective on their performance.We thoroughly discussed the numerous advantages of A2A systems in domestic properties, highlighting their efficiency and effectiveness. We also touched upon some perceived disadvantages, but as our conversation unfolded, it became clear that many of these concerns, such as fan speeds, comfort, noise, and even dry skin issues, may be simple to resolve with proper system setup and design. Indeed, with the right configuration, these issues may not even exist. For more on this, and avoiding potential pitfalls, Es has provided these insightful articles:About overheating in low-energy buildings: https://www.highlandpassive.com/do-low-energy-buildings-have-an-overheating-problem/Understanding thermal comfort: https://www.highlandpassive.com/why-do-i-feel-chilly/A key takeaway from this episode was the remarkably low cost of A2A heat pumps, making them an increasingly attractive and accessible option for homeowners looking to embrace sustainable heating solutions.Join us for a truly enlightening discussion that challenges preconceptions and sheds light on the true potential of air-to-air heat pump technology.Support the showLearn more about heat pump heating by followingNathan on Linkedin, Twitter and BlueSky

News Langages Les Applets Java c'est terminé pour de bon… enfin, bientot: https://openjdk.org/jeps/504 Les navigateurs web ne supportent plus les applets. L'API Applet et l'outil appletviewer ont été dépréciés dans JDK 9 (2017). L'outil appletviewer a été supprimé dans JDK 11 (2018). Depuis, impossible d'exécuter des applets avec le JDK. L'API Applet a été marquée pour suppression dans JDK 17 (2021). Le Security Manager, essentiel pour exécuter des applets de façon sécurisée, a été désactivé définitivement dans JDK 24 (2025). Librairies Quarkus 3.24 avec la notion d'extensions qui peuvent fournir des capacités à des assistants https://quarkus.io/blog/quarkus-3-24-released/ les assistants typiquement IA, ont accès a des capacités des extensions Par exemple générer un client à partir d'openAPI Offrir un accès à la,base de données en dev via le schéma.

Nouveau mode expérimental “Event loop Carrier” pour exécuter des virtual threads sur l'event loop Netty. Nouvelle annotation @ClassImport pour traiter des classes déjà compilées. Arrivée des @Mixin (Java uniquement) pour modifier les métadonnées d'annotations Micronaut sans altérer les classes originales. HTTP/3 : Changement de dépendance pour le support expérimental. Graceful Shutdown : Nouvelle API pour un arrêt en douceur des applications. Cache Control : API fluente pour construire facilement l'en-tête HTTP Cache-Control. KSP 2 : Support de KSP 2 (à partir de 2.0.2) et testé avec Kotlin 2. Jakarta Data : Implémentation de la spécification Jakarta Data 1.0. gRPC : Support du JSON pour envoyer des messages sérialisés via un POST HTTP. ProjectGen : Nouveau module expérimental pour générer des projets JVM (Gradle ou Maven) via une API. Un super article sur experimenter avec les event loops reactives dans les virtualthreads https://micronaut.io/2025/06/30/transitioning-to-virtual-threads-using-the-micronaut-loom-carrier/ Malheureusement cela demander le hacker le JDK C'est un article de micronaut mais le travail a ete collaboratif avec les equipes de Red Hat OpenJDK, Red Hat perf et de Quarkus et Vert.x Pour les curieux c'est un bon article Ubuntu offre un outil de creation de container pour Spring notamment https://canonical.com/blog/spring-boot-containers-made-easy creer des images OCI pour les applications Spring Boot basées sur Ubuntu base images bien sur utilise jlink pour reduire la taille pas sur de voir le gros avantage vs d'autres solutions plus portables d'ailleurs Canonical entre dans la danse des builds d'openjdk Le SDK Java de A2A contribué par Red Hat est sorti https://quarkus.io/blog/a2a-project-launches-java-sdk/ A2A est un protocole initié par Google et donne à la fondation Linux Il permet à des agents de se décrire et d'interagir entre eux Agent cards, skills, tâche, contexte A2A complémente MCP Red hat a implémenté le SDK Java avec le conseil des équipes Google En quelques annotations et classes on a un agent card, un client A2A et un serveur avec l'échange de messages via le protocole A2A Comment configurer mockito sans warning après java 21 https://rieckpil.de/how-to-configure-mockito-agent-for-java-21-without-warning/ les agents chargés dynamiquement sont déconseillés et seront interdis bientôt Un des usages est mockito via bytebuddy L'avantage est que la,configuration était transparente Mais bon sécurité oblige c'est fini. Donc l'article décrit comment configurer maven gradle pour mettre l'agent au démarrage des tests Et aussi comment configurer cela dans IntelliJ idea. Moins simple malheureusement Web Des raisons “égoïstes” de rendre les UIs plus accessibles https://nolanlawson.com/2025/06/16/selfish-reasons-for-building-accessible-uis/ Raisons égoïstes : Des avantages personnels pour les développeurs de créer des interfaces utilisateurs (UI) accessibles, au-delà des arguments moraux. Débogage facilité : Une interface accessible, avec une structure sémantique claire, est plus facile à déboguer qu'un code désordonné (la « soupe de div »). Noms standardisés : L'accessibilité fournit un vocabulaire standard (par exemple, les directives WAI-ARIA) pour nommer les composants d'interface, ce qui aide à la clarté et à la structuration du code. Tests simplifiés : Il est plus simple d'écrire des tests automatisés pour des éléments d'interface accessibles, car ils peuvent être ciblés de manière plus fiable et sémantique. Après 20 ans de stagnation, la spécification du format d'image PNG évolue enfin ! https://www.programmax.net/articles/png-is-back/ Objectif : Maintenir la pertinence et la compétitivité du format. Recommandation : Soutenu par des institutions comme la Bibliothèque du Congrès américain. Nouveautés Clés :Prise en charge du HDR (High Dynamic Range) pour une plus grande gamme de couleurs. Reconnaissance officielle des PNG animés (APNG). Support des métadonnées Exif (copyright, géolocalisation, etc.). Support Actuel : Déjà intégré dans Chrome, Safari, Firefox, iOS, macOS et Photoshop. Futur :Prochaine édition : focus sur l'interopérabilité entre HDR et SDR. Édition suivante : améliorations de la compression. Avec le projet open source Xtool, on peut maintenant construire des applications iOS sur Linux ou Windows, sans avoir besoin d'avoir obligatoirement un Mac https://xtool.sh/tutorials/xtool/ Un tutoriel très bien fait explique comment faire : Création d'un nouveau projet via la commande xtool new. Génération d'un package Swift avec des fichiers clés comme Package.swift et xtool.yml. Build et exécution de l'app sur un appareil iOS avec xtool dev. Connexion de l'appareil en USB, gestion du jumelage et du Mode Développeur. xtool gère automatiquement les certificats, profils de provisionnement et la signature de l'app. Modification du code de l'interface utilisateur (ex: ContentView.swift). Reconstruction et réinstallation rapide de l'app mise à jour avec xtool dev. xtool est basé sur VSCode sur la partie IDE Data et Intelligence Artificielle Nouvelle edition du best seller mondial “Understanding LangChain4j” : https://www.linkedin.com/posts/agoncal_langchain4j-java-ai-activity-7342825482830200833-rtw8/ Mise a jour des APIs (de LC4j 0.35 a 1.1.0) Nouveaux Chapitres sur MCP / Easy RAG / JSon Response Nouveaux modeles (GitHub Model, DeepSeek, Foundry Local) Mise a jour des modeles existants (GPT-4.1, Claude 3.7…) Google donne A2A a la Foundation Linux https://developers.googleblog.com/en/google-cloud-donates-a2a-to-linux-foundation/ Annonce du projet Agent2Agent (A2A) : Lors du sommet Open Source Summit North America, la Linux Foundation a annoncé la création du projet Agent2Agent, en partenariat avec Google, AWS, Microsoft, Cisco, Salesforce, SAP et ServiceNow. Objectif du protocole A2A : Ce protocole vise à établir une norme ouverte pour permettre aux agents d'intelligence artificielle (IA) de communiquer, collaborer et coordonner des tâches complexes entre eux, indépendamment de leur fournisseur. Transfert de Google à la communauté open source : Google a transféré la spécification du protocole A2A, les SDK associés et les outils de développement à la Linux Foundation pour garantir une gouvernance neutre et communautaire. Soutien de l'industrie : Plus de 100 entreprises soutiennent déjà le protocole. AWS et Cisco sont les derniers à l'avoir validé. Chaque entreprise partenaire a souligné l'importance de l'interopérabilité et de la collaboration ouverte pour l'avenir de l'IA. Objectifs de la fondation A2A : Établir une norme universelle pour l'interopérabilité des agents IA. Favoriser un écosystème mondial de développeurs et d'innovateurs. Garantir une gouvernance neutre et ouverte. Accélérer l'innovation sécurisée et collaborative. parler de la spec et surement dire qu'on aura l'occasion d'y revenir Gemini CLI :https://blog.google/technology/developers/introducing-gemini-cli-open-source-ai-agent/ Agent IA dans le terminal : Gemini CLI permet d'utiliser l'IA Gemini directement depuis le terminal. Gratuit avec compte Google : Accès à Gemini 2.5 Pro avec des limites généreuses. Fonctionnalités puissantes : Génère du code, exécute des commandes, automatise des tâches. Open source : Personnalisable et extensible par la communauté. Complément de Code Assist : Fonctionne aussi avec les IDE comme VS Code. Au lieu de blocker les IAs sur vos sites vous pouvez peut-être les guider avec les fichiers LLMs.txt https://llmstxt.org/ Exemples du projet angular: llms.txt un simple index avec des liens : https://angular.dev/llms.txt lllms-full.txt une version bien plus détaillée : https://angular.dev/llms-full.txt Outillage Les commits dans Git sont immuables, mais saviez vous que vous pouviez rajouter / mettre à jour des “notes” sur les commits ? https://tylercipriani.com/blog/2022/11/19/git-notes-gits-coolest-most-unloved-feature/ Fonctionnalité méconnue : git notes est une fonctionnalité puissante mais peu utilisée de Git. Ajout de métadonnées : Permet d'attacher des informations à des commits existants sans en modifier le hash. Cas d'usage : Idéal pour ajouter des données issues de systèmes automatisés (builds, tickets, etc.). Revue de code distribuée : Des outils comme git-appraise ont été construits sur git notes pour permettre une revue de code entièrement distribuée, indépendante des forges (GitHub, GitLab). Peu populaire : Son interface complexe et le manque de support des plateformes de forge ont limité son adoption (GitHub n'affiche même pas/plus les notes). Indépendance des forges : git notes offre une voie vers une plus grande indépendance vis-à-vis des plateformes centralisées, en distribuant l'historique du projet avec le code lui-même. Un aperçu dur Spring Boot debugger dans IntelliJ idea ultimate https://blog.jetbrains.com/idea/2025/06/demystifying-spring-boot-with-spring-debugger/ montre cet outil qui donne du contexte spécifique à Spring comme les beans non activés, ceux mockés, la valeur des configs, l'état des transactions Il permet de visualiser tous les beans Spring directement dans la vue projet, avec les beans non instanciés grisés et les beans mockés marqués en orange pour les tests Il résout le problème de résolution des propriétés en affichant la valeur effective en temps réel dans les fichiers properties et yaml, avec la source exacte des valeurs surchargées Il affiche des indicateurs visuels pour les méthodes exécutées dans des transactions actives, avec les détails complets de la transaction et une hiérarchie visuelle pour les transactions imbriquées Il détecte automatiquement toutes les connexions DataSource actives et les intègre avec la fenêtre d'outils Database d'IntelliJ IDEA pour l'inspection Il permet l'auto-complétion et l'invocation de tous les beans chargés dans l'évaluateur d'expression, fonctionnant comme un REPL pour le contexte Spring Il fonctionne sans agent runtime supplémentaire en utilisant des breakpoints non-suspendus dans les bibliothèques Spring Boot pour analyser les données localement Une liste communautaire sur les assistants IA pour le code, lancée par Lize Raes https://aitoolcomparator.com/ tableau comparatif qui permet de voir les différentes fonctionnalités supportées par ces outils Architecture Un article sur l'architecture hexagonale en Java https://foojay.io/today/clean-and-modular-java-a-hexagonal-architecture-approach/ article introductif mais avec exemple sur l'architecture hexagonale entre le domaine, l'application et l‘infrastructure Le domain est sans dépendance L‘appli spécifique à l'application mais sans dépendance technique explique le flow L'infrastructure aura les dépendances à vos frameworks spring, Quarkus Micronaut, Kafka etc Je suis naturellement pas fan de l'architecture hexagonale en terme de volume de code vs le gain surtout en microservices mais c'est toujours intéressant de se challenger et de regarder le bénéfice coût. Gardez un œil sur les technologies avec les tech radar https://www.sfeir.dev/cloud/tech-radar-gardez-un-oeil-sur-le-paysage-technologique/ Le Tech Radar est crucial pour la veille technologique continue et la prise de décision éclairée. Il catégorise les technologies en Adopt, Trial, Assess, Hold, selon leur maturité et pertinence. Il est recommandé de créer son propre Tech Radar pour l'adapter aux besoins spécifiques, en s'inspirant des Radars publics. Utilisez des outils de découverte (Alternativeto), de tendance (Google Trends), de gestion d'obsolescence (End-of-life.date) et d'apprentissage (roadmap.sh). Restez informé via les blogs, podcasts, newsletters (TLDR), et les réseaux sociaux/communautés (X, Slack). L'objectif est de rester compétitif et de faire des choix technologiques stratégiques. Attention à ne pas sous-estimer son coût de maintenance Méthodologies Le concept d'expert generaliste https://martinfowler.com/articles/expert-generalist.html L'industrie pousse vers une spécialisation étroite, mais les collègues les plus efficaces excellent dans plusieurs domaines à la fois Un développeur Python expérimenté peut rapidement devenir productif dans une équipe Java grâce aux concepts fondamentaux partagés L'expertise réelle comporte deux aspects : la profondeur dans un domaine et la capacité d'apprendre rapidement Les Expert Generalists développent une maîtrise durable au niveau des principes fondamentaux plutôt que des outils spécifiques La curiosité est essentielle : ils explorent les nouvelles technologies et s'assurent de comprendre les réponses au lieu de copier-coller du code La collaboration est vitale car ils savent qu'ils ne peuvent pas tout maîtriser et travaillent efficacement avec des spécialistes L'humilité les pousse à d'abord comprendre pourquoi les choses fonctionnent d'une certaine manière avant de les remettre en question Le focus client canalise leur curiosité vers ce qui aide réellement les utilisateurs à exceller dans leur travail L'industrie doit traiter “Expert Generalist” comme une compétence de première classe à nommer, évaluer et former ca me rappelle le technical staff Un article sur les métriques métier et leurs valeurs https://blog.ippon.fr/2025/07/02/monitoring-metier-comment-va-vraiment-ton-service-2/ un article de rappel sur la valeur du monitoring métier et ses valeurs Le monitoring technique traditionnel (CPU, serveurs, API) ne garantit pas que le service fonctionne correctement pour l'utilisateur final. Le monitoring métier complète le monitoring technique en se concentrant sur l'expérience réelle des utilisateurs plutôt que sur les composants isolés. Il surveille des parcours critiques concrets comme “un client peut-il finaliser sa commande ?” au lieu d'indicateurs abstraits. Les métriques métier sont directement actionnables : taux de succès, délais moyens et volumes d'erreurs permettent de prioriser les actions. C'est un outil de pilotage stratégique qui améliore la réactivité, la priorisation et le dialogue entre équipes techniques et métier. La mise en place suit 5 étapes : dashboard technique fiable, identification des parcours critiques, traduction en indicateurs, centralisation et suivi dans la durée. Une Definition of Done doit formaliser des critères objectifs avant d'instrumenter tout parcours métier. Les indicateurs mesurables incluent les points de passage réussis/échoués, les temps entre actions et le respect des règles métier. Les dashboards doivent être intégrés dans les rituels quotidiens avec un système d'alertes temps réel compréhensibles. Le dispositif doit évoluer continuellement avec les transformations produit en questionnant chaque incident pour améliorer la détection. La difficulté c'est effectivement l'évolution métier par exemple peu de commandes la nuit etc ça fait partie de la boîte à outils SRE Sécurité Toujours à la recherche du S de Sécurité dans les MCP https://www.darkreading.com/cloud-security/hundreds-mcp-servers-ai-models-abuse-rce analyse des serveurs mcp ouverts et accessibles beaucoup ne font pas de sanity check des parametres si vous les utilisez dans votre appel genAI vous vous exposer ils ne sont pas mauvais fondamentalement mais n'ont pas encore de standardisation de securite si usage local prefferer stdio ou restreindre SSE à 127.0.0.1 Loi, société et organisation Nicolas Martignole, le même qui a créé le logo des Cast Codeurs, s'interroge sur les voies possibles des développeurs face à l'impact de l'IA sur notre métier https://touilleur-express.fr/2025/06/23/ni-manager-ni-contributeur-individuel/ Évolution des carrières de développeur : L'IA transforme les parcours traditionnels (manager ou expert technique). Chef d'Orchestre d'IA : Ancien manager qui pilote des IA, définit les architectures et valide le code généré. Artisan Augmenté : Développeur utilisant l'IA comme un outil pour coder plus vite et résoudre des problèmes complexes. Philosophe du Code : Un nouveau rôle centré sur le “pourquoi” du code, la conceptualisation de systèmes et l'éthique de l'IA. Charge cognitive de validation : Nouvelle charge mentale créée par la nécessité de vérifier le travail des IA. Réflexion sur l'impact : L'article invite à choisir son impact : orchestrer, créer ou guider. Entraîner les IAs sur des livres protégés (copyright) est acceptable (fair use) mais les stocker ne l'est pas https://www.reuters.com/legal/litigation/anthropic-wins-key-ruling-ai-authors-copyright-lawsuit-2025-06-24/ Victoire pour Anthropic (jusqu'au prochain procès): L'entreprise a obtenu gain de cause dans un procès très suivi concernant l'entraînement de son IA, Claude, avec des œuvres protégées par le droit d'auteur. “Fair Use” en force : Le juge a estimé que l'utilisation des livres pour entraîner l'IA relevait du “fair use” (usage équitable) car il s'agit d'une transformation du contenu, pas d'une simple reproduction. Nuance importante : Cependant, le stockage de ces œuvres dans une “bibliothèque centrale” sans autorisation a été jugé illégal, ce qui souligne la complexité de la gestion des données pour les modèles d'IA. Luc Julia, son audition au sénat https://videos.senat.fr/video.5486945_685259f55eac4.ia–audition-de-luc-julia-concepteur-de-siri On aime ou pas on aide pas Luc Julia et sa vision de l'IA . C'est un eversion encore plus longue mais dans le même thème que sa keynote à Devoxx France 2025 ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdxjGZBtp_k ) Nature et limites de l'IA : Luc Julia a insisté sur le fait que l'intelligence artificielle est une “évolution” plutôt qu'une “révolution”. Il a rappelé qu'elle repose sur des mathématiques et n'est pas “magique”. Il a également alerté sur le manque de fiabilité des informations fournies par les IA génératives comme ChatGPT, soulignant qu'« on ne peut pas leur faire confiance » car elles peuvent se tromper et que leur pertinence diminue avec le temps. Régulation de l'IA : Il a plaidé pour une régulation “intelligente et éclairée”, qui devrait se faire a posteriori afin de ne pas freiner l'innovation. Selon lui, cette régulation doit être basée sur les faits et non sur une analyse des risques a priori. Place de la France : Luc Julia a affirmé que la France possédait des chercheurs de très haut niveau et faisait partie des meilleurs mondiaux dans le domaine de l'IA. Il a cependant soulevé le problème du financement de la recherche et de l'innovation en France. IA et Société : L'audition a traité des impacts de l'IA sur la vie privée, le monde du travail et l'éducation. Luc Julia a souligné l'importance de développer l'esprit critique, notamment chez les jeunes, pour apprendre à vérifier les informations générées par les IA. Applications concrètes et futures : Le cas de la voiture autonome a été discuté, Luc Julia expliquant les différents niveaux d'autonomie et les défis restants. Il a également affirmé que l'intelligence artificielle générale (AGI), une IA qui dépasserait l'homme dans tous les domaines, est “impossible” avec les technologies actuelles.

Hey everyone, Alex here

If you're still building products only for humans, you're already missing out on a massive new customer base: AI agents. Joining Dev Interrupted is Andrew Hamilton, co-founder and CTO of Layer (a first-of-it's kind MCP agency) to unravel this monumental shift in how products will be discovered and consumed. He dives into how AI agents are rapidly evolving from developer tools to direct consumers of APIs and products, with new standards like the MCP spearheading this transformation by effectively creating an "app store for LLMs." This evolution demands a complete rethink of product design, packaging, and user experience for an entirely new kind of user.Andrew educates us about how successfully leveraging MCP isn't about a simple one-to-one API mapping, but about thoughtfully designing an "agent experience" based on key user workflows and providing pre-packaged capabilities. He shares insights on identifying good MCP candidates, the importance of experimentation in this fast-moving space, and how tools like Layer are defining the frontier of agent-accessible tooling.Check out:The DevEx guide to AI-driven software developmentDownload: The 6 trends shaping the future of AI-driven development Follow the hosts:Follow BenFollow AndrewFollow today's guest(s):LinkedIn: Andrew HamiltonLearn more about Layer: buildwithlayer.comReferenced in today's show:Google Cloud donates A2A to Linux FoundationGemini CLI: your open-source AI agent Meta poaches OpenAI researchersAirtable as the AI-native appSupport the show: Subscribe to our Substack Leave us a review Subscribe on YouTube Follow us on Twitter or LinkedIn Offers: Learn about Continuous Merge with gitStream Get your DORA Metrics free forever

Linking generative AI models to the agents that are going to use them now has a standard for queries, the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Suddenly all sorts of things are vying to be your data source of choice. What could go wrong? Analysts Jean Atelsek, James Curtis and Henry Baltazar join host Eric Hanselman to provide an introduction to what MCP is, what all the fuss is about and where this is headed. Since Anthropic released the standard in November of 2024, there has been significant progress in expanding and clarifying it, but it is still very much a work in progress. Database providers and storage vendors have been the obvious participants and many others are joining in. The larger questions are around ensuring trust and transparency in this market. Basic authentication has been worked out, but more sophisticated authorization mechanisms need to be defined. The mad dash is already leading to M&A activity, with storage vendors looking to expand their opportunities and maintain their relevance. Microsoft has released its MCP definition and Google has created an agent-to-agent (A2A) protocol for direct agent interactions. There are many pieces that are coming together to enable fully agentic operations and there is still a lot of work to be done.   More S&P Global Content: The 2025 Generative AI Outlook For S&P Global subscribers: Technology Primer: Model Context Protocol explained Databases and analytic services get the agentic AI treatment at Google Cloud Next 2025 IT Insider 3: A roundup for IT decision-makers Credits: Host/Author: Eric Hanselman Guests: Jean Atelsek, James Curtis, Henry Baltazar Producer/Editor: Adam Kovalsky Published With Assistance From: Sophie Carr, Feranmi Adeoshun, Kyra Smith

Today, we're joined by Vijoy Pandey, SVP and general manager at Outshift by Cisco to discuss a foundational challenge for the enterprise: how do we make specialized agents from different vendors collaborate effectively? As companies like Salesforce, Workday, and Microsoft all develop their own agentic systems, integrating them creates a complex, probabilistic, and noisy environment, a stark contrast to the deterministic APIs of the past. Vijoy introduces Cisco's vision for an "Internet of Agents," a platform to manage this new reality, and its open-source implementation, AGNTCY. We explore the four phases of agent collaboration—discovery, composition, deployment, and evaluation—and dive deep into the communication stack, from syntactic protocols like A2A, ACP, and MCP to the deeper semantic challenges of creating a shared understanding between agents. Vijoy also unveils SLIM (Secure Low-Latency Interactive Messaging), a novel transport layer designed to make agent-to-agent communication quantum-safe, real-time, and efficient for multi-modal workloads.

In this episode, I sit down with SAIC Chief Technology Officer (CTO) and longtime Federal/Defense leader Bob Ritchie to discuss his experience securing public sector digital modernization, including everything from large multi-cloud environments to zero trust, identity, and where things are headed with AI.Bob starts discussing SAIC and his background there. He went from intern to CTO over 20 years with this public sector industry leader, including a brief stint with Capital One on the commercial side.We covered the current state of the federal cloud community across multiple clouds (e.g., Azure, AWS, and GCP) and some of the challenges and opportunities on the security front.We often hear phrases such as “identity is the new perimeter,” but the perimeter is porous and problematic, especially in large, disparate environments such as the Federal/Defense ecosystem. Bob touched on the current state of identity security in this ecosystem, where progress is being made and what challenges still need to be tackled.The government is doing a big push towards Zero Trust, with the Cyber EO 14028, Federal/Defense ZT strategies, and more. But how much progress is being made on ZT, and where can we look for examples of innovation and success?We dove into the rise of excitement and adoption of AI, GenAI, Agentic AI, and protocols such as MCP, A2A, and where the public sector community can lean into Agentic AI for use cases ranging from SecOps, AppSec, GRC, and more.Bob explains how he balances a good business focus while staying deep in the weeds and proficient in relevant emerging technologies and nuances required as a CTO.I've known Bob for several years, and you would be hard pressed to find a more competent technology leader. This is not one to miss!

“We must really control the inputs we are taking into our brain.” - Lauren CulpWelcome to episode 211 of The CUInsight Experience podcast with your hosts, Randy Smith, co-founder of CUInsight, and Jill Nowacki, President and CEO of Humanidei.This episode is sponsored by Alacriti—a leading payments fintech helping credit unions compete with challenger banks and digital wallets. Alacriti delivers seamless, real-time money movement experiences for loan payments, A2A transfers, digital disbursements, and bill pay. With a single, cloud-native platform that connects to The Clearing House, Fedwire, ACH, and FedNow, credit unions can modernize without overhauling legacy infrastructure. Learn more at Alacriti.com.In this season, Jill and I will have conversations centered around leadership, credit unions, and living our best lives. We will have some of the most respected leaders from around credit unions who we are grateful to call friends join us in the discussion from time to time too.In this episode, we are joined by Lauren Culp, Executive Director at the National Credit Union Foundation (and former President and CEO at CUInsight). She joins us to talk about energy, not just as a buzzword but as a very real challenge that leaders must face. Lauren reflects on what depletes her and what restores her, including deleting social media off her phone. We explore the difference between being productive and being present and how hard it is to do both when you're living in a steady stream of notifications and back-to-back meetings.We also open up about learning to say no, what boundaries look like in leadership, and how to tell the difference between what is actually urgent and what just feels urgent. Whether it's blocking no-meeting days, turning off email notifications, or just having the self-awareness to admit that you are “out of words,” these are the tools that help us stay grounded rather than just efficient, especially since there is a difference between being productive and actually being present.Join us for an insightful conversation about being human and about protecting the parts of ourselves that leadership can easily burn through if we aren't being careful. If you've ever found yourself feeling scattered, exhausted, and completely out of energy, then this episode is definitely for you.

A Year Just Happened in a WeekOverviewThis newsletter issue captures an extraordinary acceleration in technological innovation within an especially intense week, focusing on the broad and deep impact of AI across industries and devices. Listeners get a front-row seat to seismic shifts at major AI players—Google, Anthropic, OpenAI—and how their breakthroughs and strategic maneuvers are reshaping software, hardware, venture capital, productivity, and ethics.What makes this collection compelling is its exploration of AI's layered disruption—from Google's AI-powered reimagining of search and productivity tools, Anthropic's record-breaking AI assistant capable of deep autonomous work, to OpenAI's audacious entry into consumer hardware design with Apple's design luminary Jony Ive. The newsletter also provides reflections on startup funding trends, evolving AI workplace mandates, and foundational debates over AI's ethical architecture and future ecosystem. Together, these pieces sketch a vivid snapshot of an inflection point in AI where technology, business models, and societal stakes intertwine.Key TrendsKey Trend 1: The AI Technology Leap — From Advanced Models to New Product ParadigmsAI development is surging at unprecedented pace, not just in capability but in practical integration across applications and devices. The focus is shifting from conceptual AI to usable, extended-duration, agentic assistants deeply embedded in daily workflows and consumer products.Significance: This trend reflects AI moving beyond isolated bursts of insight or simple chat interfaces to sustained, autonomous collaboration with users, spanning complex reasoning, coding, multi-modal inputs, and tool integrations. This lays the foundation for redefining productivity, creativity, and user experience in the AI era.Key Trend 2: Strategic Hardware Plays and the Battle Beyond SoftwareOpenAI's multi-billion-dollar acquisition of Jony Ive's startup signals a strategic pivot into hardware—building new AI companion devices designed to transcend conventional screens and possibly displace smartphones. At the same time, Google pushes integrated AI experiences centered on search and productivity on existing platforms.Significance: This trend shifts AI competition into physical devices and operating environments, creating new battlegrounds involving design innovation and consumer ownership models, with potentially profound effects on user habits and ecosystem dynamics.Key Trend 3: Venture Capital Evolution in the AI and Tech LandscapeFunding trends reveal concentrated capital flows into AI, with Series B rounds showing volatility but an overarching pivot toward efficiency, profitability, and selective aggressive capital deployment. Seed investing scales with new playbooks supporting early founder engagement and dynamic portfolio strategies.Significance: This trend highlights the ongoing maturation and transformation of venture capital amid AI's rise, balancing risk, returns, and market realities, while exploring creative financing strategies crossing over traditional VC and private equity models.Key Trend 4: Workplace Transformation and AI-Driven ExpectationsLeading companies mandate widespread AI adoption to boost productivity, heighten efficiency, and reshape employee roles. Executives issue candid warnings on AI's impact on jobs while simultaneously emphasizing the opportunity to master AI tools or face obsolescence.Significance: This trend underscores the sociological and managerial upheaval driven by AI in the workforce, where adoption is non-negotiable and where AI influences morale, workflows, and corporate culture at a fundamental level.Key Trend 5: Calls for an Open, Protocol-Based AI Ecosystem vs. Concentration of PowerThere is growing advocacy for “an architecture of participation”—a decentralized, interoperable AI ecosystem fueled by open protocols and multi-agent cooperation—to avoid premature monopolization by dominant platforms. Yet, industry maneuvers reveal increasingly concentrated power among a few mega players.Significance: This sets the stage for an ideological and practical contest over the future of AI infrastructure: will it foster broad innovation and cooperation or become locked under monopolistic control? The ultimate shape of AI's ecosystem has huge technological, economic, and ethical implications.Talking Points for Each TrendTrend 1: The AI Technology LeapTalking Point 1: Anthropic's Claude Opus 4 demonstrated sustained 7-hour autonomous coding and set new benchmarks (72.5% on SWE-Bench), reflecting AI's step from quick interactions to deep, continuous collaboration.> “Anthropic is reshaping the landscape... pushing the boundaries of what machines can achieve in creative and technical collaboration over sustained periods.” (VentureBeat)Talking Point 2: Google's Gemini 2.5 Pro introduces ‘Deep Think' mode for complex multi-hypothesis reasoning, advancing AI's understanding and problem-solving in dynamic environments.> “Gemini 2.5 Pro... features an enhanced reasoning mode called 'Deep Think', evaluating multiple possible answers before responding.” (VentureBeat)Trend 2: Strategic Hardware PlaysTalking Point 1: OpenAI's acquisition of Jony Ive's startup io ($6.5B) marks their largest deal, signaling a major move into “physical AI embodiments” with devices aiming to reduce screen dependence and potentially challenge Apple's dominance.> “They are working on a new device... fully aware of a user's surroundings... designed as a third core device alongside MacBook and iPhone.” (Reuters)Talking Point 2: Google, while heavily AI-centric, remains focused on embedding AI in software and services (Search, NotebookLM mobile, AI Overviews), reinforcing software ecosystems but facing competition on the device front.> “Google launched AI Mode... a 'total reimagining of search'... while rolling out NotebookLM mobile for on-the-go AI productivity.” (FT.com)Trend 3: Venture Capital EvolutionTalking Point 1: AI has grabbed roughly one-third of global venture capital ($100B+ in 2024), showing AI's outsized role in funding flows amid overall tightening of Series B round sizes.> “AI sector dominated global venture funding, doubling from $55.6 billion to over $100 billion in 2024.” (vccafe.com)Talking Point 2: Seed-stage investing is scaling with firms like BoxGroup emphasizing early believer status and collaborative partnerships to back startups through various growth phases.> “BoxGroup makes 40 seed investments annually... focuses on supporting founders without dominating ownership or boards.” (TwentyMinuteVC)Trend 4: Workplace TransformationTalking Point 1: Shopify's CEO Tobi Lutke mandates AI proficiency, linking job security to AI adoption and productivity boosts, signaling new workplace norms amid AI anxiety.> “Before asking more headcount... teams must demonstrate why tasks can't be done via AI.” (NYMag)Talking Point 2: Fiverr's CEO issued stark warnings about AI threat to jobs, urging employees to master AI tools or risk professional irrelevance.> “AI is coming for your jobs... You are expected to do more, faster, and better. If you don't, your value will decrease.” (NYMag)Trend 5: Open Ecosystem vs Concentration of PowerTalking Point 1: Tim O'Reilly and others advocate for protocol-based AI ecosystems (Anthropic's MCP, Google's A2A, Microsoft's NLWeb) fostering interoperability and distributed innovation, echoing open Internet ideals.> “Participatory markets are innovative markets... solutions can come from everywhere, not just from a dominant monopolist.” (O'Reilly)Talking Point 2: Despite open ideals, dominant players like OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic are actively building controlling ecosystems and platforms—OpenAI's language of “operating system” and multi-billion-dollar acquisitions hint at winner-takes-most dynamics.> “It's hard not to feel we are witnessing aggressive maneuvers... pursuing a winner-takes-most opportunity.” (Newsletter Editorial)Discussion QuestionsHow will the shift from AI as a tool to AI as an autonomous collaborator change the nature of work and productivity across sectors?What are the implications of OpenAI entering the hardware space with design leadership from Jony Ive? Can this challenge entrenched tech giants like Apple and Google?Considering venture capital trends, how might the concentration of funding in AI affect startup diversity and innovation outside the AI sector?Are the workplace mandates for AI adoption sustainable, or do they risk damaging employee morale and creativity? How should companies balance AI integration with human factors?What are the pros and cons of pursuing an open AI ecosystem based on cooperative protocols versus the reality of platform dominance by a few major players?To what extent could OpenAI's and Google's competition reflect the longstanding tech ecosystem rivalry between integrated and modular approaches, and what does that mean for consumers?With OpenAI aggressively building an ecosystem and platform, how might regulators or policymakers respond to ensure competitive, ethical AI development?Closing SegmentThis week crystallized a pivotal inflection point—a "Great Leap Forward" in AI's maturity and reach. We've seen models like Claude Opus 4 and Google's Gemini 2.5 evolve into sophisticated, sustained collaborators capable of seamlessly integrating into human workflows and devices. At the same time, strategic moves—especially OpenAI's multi-billion-dollar hardware acquisition—signal a new battleground beyond software into hardware innovation and consumer experience design.The venture capital landscape is adapting rapidly with concentrated AI funding and evolving seed strategies spotlighting early founder support, all while workplace cultures grapple with AI-driven mandates that challenge traditional roles and morale.Beneath these shifts lies an ideological tug-of-war over AI's future architecture—whether it will be governed as an open, participatory ecosystem enabling broad innovation or solidify under winner-takes-all platforms controlled by a few giants.As hosts close this broadcast, invite listeners to ponder: Are we witnessing the dawn of truly universal AI assistants integrated into our lives, or the birth of new digital gatekeepers? And how will individuals and organizations navigate this rapid transition to stay ahead in an AI-powered future?What's clear is this: the year truly just happened, compressed within a single week, and AI stands at the stage center, shaping what comes next.Relevant Links and Sources (for producer reference)Anthropic Claude 4 & Opus 4 Coding MilestoneGoogle Gemini 2.5 Pro and AI Mode DetailsOpenAI Acquisition of Jony Ive's ioOpenAI's Leadership and Profitability FocusVenture Capital and AI Investment TrendsAI Workplace Mandates at Shopify and FiverrTim O'Reilly on Architecture of ParticipationGoogle I/O 2025 Summary and AI Product StrategyEnd of Show Notes This is a public episode.

Many of you still remember the fieldbus wars, then peace came and we solved industrial communication with TSN and many other technologies. But now the agents are coming. What are they – “just” a new layer?

Send us a textAnthropic introduced MCP (Model Context Protocol) at the tail end of 2024, and Google launched the Agent2Agent Protocol (A2A) just this month. MCP standardizes connections between AI Agents/LLMs and external data/tools, kind of like ‘USB-C for AI'. A2A standardizes communication & collaboration between AI Agents, like a universal language / ‘Lingua Franca' for Agents. Both of these protocols are groundbreaking in their own right, and John Capobianco joins the podcast to explain why. In this episode, we start with high-level basics and end with doing an unscripted live demonstration. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the impact and applications of these two innovations.Where to Find John CapobiancoLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-capobianco-644a1515/Twitter: https://x.com/John_CapobiancoYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@johncapobianco2527GitHub: https://github.com/automateyournetworkShow LinksModel Context Protocol (MCP): https://modelcontextprotocol.io/Agent-to-Agent (A2A) Protocol: https://github.com/google/agent-to-agentRFC 4594 (QoS): https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4594Lang Graph: https://github.com/langchain-ai/langgraphAgent Development Kit (ADK): https://github.com/google/agent-development-kitSelector AI: https://www.selector.ai/Follow, Like, and Subscribe!Podcast: https://www.thecloudgambit.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheCloudGambitLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thecloudgambitTwitter: https://twitter.com/TheCloudGambitTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecloudgambit
