Hey folks, Alex here, welcome back to ThursdAI! And folks, after the last week was the calm before the storm, "The storm came, y'all" – that's an understatement. This wasn't just a storm; it was an AI hurricane, a category 5 of announcements that left us all reeling (in the best way possible!). From being on the ground at Google I/O to live-watching Anthropic drop Claude 4 during our show, it's been an absolute whirlwind.This week was so packed, it felt like AI Christmas, with tech giants and open-source heroes alike showering us with gifts. We saw OpenAI play their classic pre-and-post-Google I/O chess game, Microsoft make some serious open-source moves, Google unleash an avalanche of updates, and Anthropic crash the party with Claude 4 Opus and Sonnet live stream in the middle of ThursdAI!So buckle up, because we're about to try and unpack this glorious chaos. As always, we're here to help you collectively know, learn, and stay up to date, so you don't have to. Let's dive in! (TL;DR and links in the end) Open Source LLMs Kicking Things OffEven with the titans battling, the open-source community dropped some serious heat this week. It wasn't the main headline grabber, but the releases were significant!Gemma 3n: Tiny But Mighty MatryoshkaFirst up, Google's Gemma 3n. This isn't just another small model; it's a "Nano-plus" preview, a 4-billion parameter MatFormer (Matryoshka Transformer – how cool is that name?) model designed for mobile-first multimodal applications. The really slick part? It has a nested 2-billion parameter sub-model that can run entirely on phones or Chromebooks.Yam was particularly excited about this one, pointing out the innovative "model inside another model" design. The idea is you can use half the model, not depth-wise, but throughout the layers, for a smaller footprint without sacrificing too much. It accepts interleaved text, image, audio, and video, supports ASR and speech translation, and even ships with RAG and function-calling libraries for edge apps. With a 128K token window and responsible AI features baked in, Gemma 3n is looking like a powerful tool for on-device AI. Google claims it beats prior 4B mobile models on MMLU-Lite and MMMU-Mini. It's an early preview in Google AI Studio, but it definitely flies on mobile devices.Mistral & AllHands Unleash Devstral 24BThen we got a collaboration from Mistral and AllHands: Devstral, a 24-billion parameter, state-of-the-art open model focused on code. We've been waiting for Mistral to drop some open-source goodness, and this one didn't disappoint.Nisten was super hyped, noting it beats o3-Mini on SWE-bench verified – a tough benchmark! He called it "the first proper vibe coder that you can run on a 3090," which is a big deal for coders who want local power and privacy. This is a fantastic development for the open-source coding community.The Pre-I/O Tremors: OpenAI & Microsoft Set the StageAs we predicted, OpenAI couldn't resist dropping some news right before Google I/O.OpenAI's Codex Returns as an AgentOpenAI launched Codex – yes, that Codex, but reborn as an asynchronous coding agent. This isn't just a CLI tool anymore; it connects to GitHub, does pull requests, fixes bugs, and navigates your codebase. It's powered by a new coding model fine-tuned for large codebases and was SOTA on SWE Agent when it dropped. Funnily, the model is also called Codex, this time, Codex-1. And this gives us a perfect opportunity to talk about the emerging categories I'm seeing among Code Generator agents and tools:* IDE-based (Cursor, Windsurf): Live pair programming in your editor* Vibe coding (Lovable, Bolt, v0): "Build me a UI" style tools for non-coders* CLI tools (Claude Code, Codex-cli): Terminal-based assistants* Async agents (Claude Code, Jules, Codex, GitHub Copilot agent, Devin): Work on your repos while you sleep, open pull requests for you to review, asyncCodex (this new one) falls into category number 4, and with today's release, Cursor seems to also strive to get to category number 4 with background processing. Microsoft BUILD: Open Source Copilot and Copilot Agent ModeThen came Microsoft Build, their huge developer conference, with a flurry of announcements.The biggest one for me? GitHub Copilot's front-end code is now open source! The VS Code editor part was already open, but the Copilot integration itself wasn't. This is a massive move, likely a direct answer to the insane valuations of VS Code clones like Cursor. Now, you can theoretically clone GitHub Copilot with VS Code and swing for the fences.GitHub Copilot also launched as an asynchronous coding assistant, very similar in function to OpenAI's Codex, allowing it to be assigned tasks and create/update PRs. This puts Copilot right into category 4 of code assistants, and with the native Github Integration, they may actually have a leg up in this race!And if that wasn't enough, Microsoft is adding MCP (Model Context Protocol) support directly into the Windows OS. The implications of having the world's biggest operating system natively support this agentic protocol are huge.Google I/O: An "Ultra" Event Indeed!Then came Tuesday, and Google I/O. I was there in the thick of it, and folks, it was an absolute barrage. Google is shipping. The theme could have been "Ultra" for many reasons, as we'll see.First off, the scale: Google reported a 49x increase in AI usage since last year's I/O, jumping from 9 trillion tokens processed to a mind-boggling 480 trillion tokens. That's a testament to their generous free tiers and the explosion of AI adoption.Gemini 2.5 Pro & Flash: #1 and #2 LLMs on ArenaGemini 2.5 Flash got an update and is now #2 on the LMArena leaderboard (with Gemini 2.5 Pro still holding #1). Both Pro and Flash gained some serious new capabilities:* Deep Think mode: This enhanced reasoning mode is pushing Gemini's scores to new heights, hitting 84% on MMMU and topping LiveCodeBench. It's about giving the model more "time" to work through complex problems.* Native Audio I/O: We're talking real-time TTS in 24 languages with two voices, and affective dialogue capabilities. This is the advanced voice mode we've been waiting for, now built-in.* Project Mariner: Computer-use actions are being exposed via the Gemini API & Vertex AI for RPA partners. This started as a Chrome extension to control your browser and now seems to be a cloud-based API, allowing Gemini to use the web, not just browse it. This feels like Google teaching its AI to interact with the JavaScript-heavy web, much like they taught their crawlers years ago.* Thought Summaries: Okay, here's one update I'm not a fan of. They've switched from raw thinking traces to "thought summaries" in the API. We want the actual traces! That's how we learn and debug.* Thinking Budgets: Previously a Flash-only feature, token ceilings for controlling latency/cost now extend to Pro.* Flash Upgrade: 20-30% fewer tokens, better reasoning/multimodal scores, and GA in early June.Gemini Diffusion: Speed Demon for Code and MathThis one got Yam Peleg incredibly excited. Gemini Diffusion is a new approach, different from transformers, for super-speed editing of code and math tasks. We saw demos hitting 2000 tokens per second! While there might be limitations at longer contexts, its speed and infilling capabilities are seriously impressive for a research preview. This is the first diffusion model for text we've seen from the frontier labs, and it looks sick. Funny note, they had to slow down the demo video to actually show the diffusion process, because at 2000t/s - apps appear as though out of thin air!The "Ultra" Tier and Jules, Google's Coding AgentRemember the "Ultra event" jokes? Well, Google announced a Gemini Ultra tier for $250/month. This tops OpenAI's Pro plan and includes DeepThink access, a generous amount of VEO3 generation, YouTube Premium, and a whopping 30TB of storage. It feels geared towards creators and developers.And speaking of developers, Google launched Jules (jules.google)! This is their asynchronous coding assistant (Category 4!). Like Codex and GitHub Copilot Agent, it connects to your GitHub, opens PRs, fixes bugs, and more. The big differentiator? It's currently free, which might make it the default for many. Another powerful agent joins the fray!AI Mode in Search: GA and EnhancedAI Mode in Google Search, which we've discussed on the show before with Robby Stein, is now in General Availability in the US. This is Google's answer to Perplexity and chat-based search.But they didn't stop there:* Personalization: AI Mode can now connect to your Gmail and Docs (if you opt-in) for more personalized results.* Deep Search: While AI Mode is fast, Deep Search offers more comprehensive research capabilities, digging through hundreds of sources, similar to other "deep research" tools. This will eventually be integrated, allowing you to escalate an AI Mode query for a deeper dive.* Project Mariner Integration: AI Mode will be able to click into websites, check availability for tickets, etc., bridging the gap to an "agentic web."I've had a chat with Robby during I/O and you can listen to that interview at the end of the podcast.Veo3: The Undisputed Star of Google I/OFor me, and many others I spoke to, Veo3 was the highlight. This is Google's flagship video generation model, and it's on another level. (the video above, including sounds is completely one shot generated from VEO3, no processing or editing)* Realism and Physics: The visual quality and understanding of physics are astounding.* Natively Multimodal: This is huge. Veo3 generates native audio, including coherent speech, conversations, and sound effects, all synced perfectly. It can even generate text within videos.* Coherent Characters: Characters remain consistent across scenes and have situational awareness, who speaks when, where characters look.* Image Upload & Reference Ability: While image upload was closed for the demo, it has reference capabilities.* Flow: An editor for video creation using Veo3 and Imagen4 which also launched, allowing for stiching and continuous creation.I got access and created videos where Veo3 generated a comedian telling jokes (and the jokes were decent!), characters speaking with specific accents (Indian, Russian – and they nailed it!), and lip-syncing that was flawless. The situational awareness, the laugh tracks kicking in at the right moment... it's beyond just video generation. This feels like a world simulator. It blew through the uncanny valley for me. More on Veo3 later, because it deserves its own spotlight.Imagen4, Virtual Try-On, and XR Glasses* Imagen4: Google's image generation model also got an upgrade, with extra textual ability.* Virtual Try-On: In Google Shopping, you can now virtually try on clothes. I tried it; it's pretty cool and models different body types well.* XR AI Glasses from Google: Perhaps the coolest, but most futuristic, announcement. AI-powered glasses with an actual screen, memory, and Gemini built-in. You can talk to it, it remembers things for you, and interacts with your environment. This is agentic AI in a very tangible form.Big Company LLMs + APIs: The Beat Goes OnThe news didn't stop with Google.OpenAI (acqui)Hires Jony Ive, Launches "IO" for HardwareThe day after I/O, Sam Altman confirmed that Jony Ive, the legendary designer behind Apple's iconic products, is joining OpenAI. He and his company, LoveFrom, have jointly created a new company called "IO" (yes, IO, just like the conference) which is joining OpenAI in a stock deal reportedly worth $6.5 billion. They're working on a hardware device, unannounced for now, but expected next year. This is a massive statement of intent from OpenAI in the hardware space.Legendary iPhone analyst Ming-Chi Kuo shed some light on the possible device, it won't have a screen, as Jony wants to "wean people off screens"... funny right? They are targeting 2027 for mass production, which is really interesting as 2027 is when most big companies expect AGI to be here. "The current prototype is slightly larger than AI Pin, with a form factor comparable to iPod Shuffle, with one intended use cases is to wear it around your neck, with microphones and cameras for environmental detection" LMArena Raises $100M Seed from a16zThis one raised some eyebrows. LMArena, the go-to place for vibe-checking LLMs, raised a $100 million seed round from Andreessen Horowitz. That's a huge number for a seed, reminiscent of Stability AI's early funding. It also brings up questions about how a VC-backed startup maintains impartiality as a model evaluation platform. Interesting times ahead for leaderboards, how they intent to make 100x that amount to return to investors. Very curious.

Salesforce has announced the general Availability of Einstein Copilot - the conversational AI assistant for CRM - along with new capabilities designed to enhance seller productivity and scale adoption of generative AI. Introducing new sales actions For 25 years, Salesforce has been helping sales teams find, win, and keep customers across every facet of the sales cycle - from prospecting and activity tracking, to forecasting and revenue operations - all of which can be tailored to your business through customisable metadata. Salesforce is using this wealth of experience to collapse the most common and valuable seller processes into conversational AI interactions grounded on your business-specific data and metadata and delivered at scale through new analytics and testing tools. A key component of this metadata, and unique to Einstein Copilot, are Copilot Actions - pre- programmed capabilities that enable Einstein Copilot to not only answer questions using your business data, but also string together workflows to get things done on behalf of your users. Today, Salesforce is increasing their library of actions with new capabilities where sellers can benefit from conversational AI directly in Sales Cloud. Instead of navigating to a bespoke AI tool disconnected from their CRM, reps can simply open up Einstein Copilot and ask for a personalised close plan, insights on why an opportunity may not close in the month, or to check if pricing was discussed on a recent call - which means more time focused on the customer, and less sifting through data and screens. And because Einstein Copilot includes a reasoning engine that can interpret user requests and dynamically automate tasks from a library of actions, every new action expands the breadth of use cases it can support - and it does so without the need to train or fine-tune a large language model (LLM). Dive deeper into what's new Einstein Copilot now includes new sales actions for boosting seller productivity across an array of cross- functional use cases: Close Plans: To accelerate time to close, sales reps and managers can have Einstein Copilot create a grounded, personalised close plan for an opportunity - with step-by-step tactics based on historical opportunity and account data as well as recommended dates of action. Forecast Guidance: Sales managers can understand and de-risk forecasts through Einstein Copilot, asking questions such as "What deals are at risk?" and getting a summarised list of deals that could explain why a rep might not hit their quota, as well as top reasons for why those deals were chosen, such as their close date or lack of recent activities. Call Explorer: Using retrieval augmented generation (RAG), which enables companies to use their structured and unstructured proprietary data to make AI more trusted and relevant, sales reps can query prior call transcripts captured in Einstein Conversation Insights, asking questions such as "What was the customer sentiment on this call?" and getting a semantically relevant answer scoped just to that call to avoid hallucinations. Follow-Up Emails: To facilitate deal progression, reps can have Einstein Copilot craft customised follow-up emails, based on prior calls - helping move deals along. Einstein Copilot in Sales Cloud Everywhere: Take Einstein Copilot everywhere you work. Research prospects, get up-to-speed on deals, and draft outreach from any webpage with Sales Cloud Everywhere. In addition to these new capabilities for sellers, Einstein Copilot is introducing platform enhancements that make every conversational AI experience better: Copilot Analytics: Admins can visualise usage of Einstein Copilot through a pre-configured analytics dashboard, enabling them to understand and accelerate Einstein Copilot adoption by dissecting key metrics such as actions used, average interactions per user, and success rates to help businesses drive and measure ROI from AI. Recommended Actions: Teams are now empowered to quickly c...

On this episode, Paul shares his thoughts on the Snapdragon X Elite chip with Leo and Richard. Windows 11 24H2, AI, NPUs, and SoCs from Intel, AMD, and Qualcomm are all on the way this year. But a schedule is finally starting to emerge. And it looks like we'll soon have answers to the questions about how or why AI will matter on PCs. Windows, AI, and the future Windows 11 version 24H2 - staggered release schedule as discussed last week Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite-based PCs in May/June - nothing but good news to date, but Paul went hands-on last week. It's the real deal. Intel's first-gen Core Ultra chipsets are lackluster, but now we have big promises for Arrow Lake in late 2024 Microsoft Build 2024 is in mid-May, and now we have a session list with some nice clues. For example, Introducing the Next Generation of Windows on Arm Microsoft is expected to unveil 24H2 and new X Elite-based Surface PCs at Build Computex and other milestones, and then back-to-school and holiday selling periods Windows 11 Moment 5 arrives in stable with yesterday's Patch Tuesday (which is now called the General Availability channel, by the way). Of course, we still don't have all the features. In particular, waiting on Android phone as a webcam. IDC says PC market grew by 1.5 percent in Q1 and acts like it's the turnaround of the century Microsoft is manually blocking certain registry keys related to default browsers now: Apple-like non-EU belligerence or pragmatic protection of user choice? Why can't it be both?

We're not surprised this is the end result. Of course, iRobot proceeded to lay off 350 employees, or around 31 percent of its workforce. In addition CEO Colin Angle, who co-founded the company, stepped down from his CEO position and his chair position. Amazon gets to pay 94 Million in a termination fee to iRobot, which will help pay off a loan iRobot took the year prior. 04:02 Terraform fork OpenTofu launches into general availability OpenTofu has moved into General Availability. The milestone is after a four month development effort, with hundreds of contributors and over five dozen developers.

As organizations embark on adopting zero trust network access (ZTNA) solutions, they often desire the flexibility of a hybrid strategy with the choice to use a mix of SaaS-based and / or customer-managed solutions to best suit their needs. Particularly organizations with closed networks, highly regulated environments, and / or strict data & privacy controls continue to prefer an on-premises solution while leveraging a vendor-operated cloud-based solution where it makes sense without compromising security and end-user experience outcomes.One year ago, we launched Citrix Secure Private Access service — a cloud-based zero trust security solution that provides comprehensive ZTNA to all IT-managed applications, a curated end-user experience through Citrix Enterprise Browser, adaptive authentication, app protection, and adaptive security controls including Remote Browser Isolation, to provide unified access and protect against data loss threats. Citrix has been a leader in delivering unified, secure, zero trust access to enterprise applications for decades. We are committed to the principles of “Never Trust, Always Verify” and have continued our innovation to meet our customers where they are in their secure access strategy.Today, we are pleased to announce the General Availability of Secure Private Access On-Premises solution — a major milestone in our journey to deliver ZTNA as a full customer-managed on-premises solution.Host: Bill SuttonCo-host: Todd SmithCo-host: Geremy MeyersCo-host: Patrick Coble

Artificial intelligence (AI) research and deployment company OpenAI recently announced the official launch of ChatGPT, a new model for conversational AI. According to OpenAI, the dialogue provided by this platform makes it possible for ChatGPT to “answer follow-up questions, admit its mistakes, challenge incorrect premises and reject inappropriate requests.”Since its launch, social media has been abuzz with discussions around the possibilities — and dangers — of this new innovation, ranging from its ability to debug code to its potential to write essays for college students. In this podcast, we sit down for a conversation with Bern Elliot, VP Analyst at Gartner, to discuss the broader implications of this innovation and the steps that organizations should take regarding the use of these tools. Gartner has published a number of research pieces regarding ChatGPT (see recommended reading below). Here are a few of the common questions that set the stage for our interactive dialogue on the podcast.Q. What is ChatGPT and how does it work? Chat Generative Pretrained Transformer, or ChatGPT, is a chatbot and generative language tool launched by OpenAI in November 2022.1 The ChatGPT models compute the most probable set of letters or words when given an initial starting phrase, or “prompt.” ChatGPT is built on top of OpenAI's GPT-3 family of large language models and enables interaction with a model via a conversational user interface. ChatGPT was trained using 300 billion words taken from books, online texts, Wikipedia articles and code libraries, then fine-tuned with human feedback.On 16 January 2023, Microsoft announced the introduction of Azure OpenAI Service, which includes ChatGPT along with language models and added enterprise services..2 It is important for enterprise planners to distinguish between the OpenAI ChatGPT and the Azure OpenAI Service. The Azure version promises significant enterprise operational features, but is still emerging at the time of writing.Q. What role will ChatGPT play in the enterprise? ChatGPT, and foundation models like it, will be used as a tool alongside many other hyperautomation and AI innovations. It will form part of architected solutions that automate/augment humans or machines, and autonomously execute business and IT processes. As generative AI takes its place alongside existing approaches to work, ChatGPT or other competitors will be used to replace, recalibrate and redefine some activities and tasks that form part of many job roles.Q. How much does ChatGPT cost? The current research preview version of ChatGPT, which is the only version users could access up to the end of January 2023, is free of charge. However, there is no guarantee that this free service will persist, and it could be withdrawn at any time. OpenAI recently announced the launch of a pilot subscription plan for ChatGPT Plus for $20 a month.3ChatGPT will also come to the Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service soon, but the pricing for that is currently being rolled out.4 It is possible that significant elements will be bundled with different Microsoft 365 software subscriptions.Q. Should I provide ChatGPT-powered experiences directly to my customers? No — this is too high a risk at present for most use cases, except in rare cases, possibly related to gaming or entertainment, where the correctness or impartiality of the content may have less scrutiny. Gartner expects the ChatGPT service to change rapidly over 2023 and to be complemented by other offerings. It is important for enterprise planners to distinguish between the OpenAI ChatGPT and the Azure OpenAI Service. Gartner also expects several competitors will enter this market alongside ChatGPT. In particular, Gartner expects organizations like Baidu, IBM and Google to come to market early in 2023, along with a crop of smaller players. For example, on 6 February 2023, Google announced the introduction of its own offering, Bard.Footnotes:1 Introducing ChatGPT, OpenAI.2 Azure OpenAI Service, Microsoft.3 Introducing ChatGPT Plus, OpenAI.4 General Availability of Azure OpenAI Service Expands Access to Large, Advanced AI Models With Added Enterprise Benefits, Microsoft. Host Frances Karamouzis is joined by our expert analyst, Bern Elliot. Elliot is a Gartner vice president and distinguished analyst. His research focus is artificial intelligence generally, with an added focus on natural language processing (NLP), machine translation, and customer engagement and service.
On this episode of The Cloud Pod, the team discusses the upcoming 2023 in-person Google Cloud conference, the accessibility of AWS CloudTrail Lake for non-AWS activity events, the new updates from Azure Chaos studio, and the comparison between Oracle Cloud service and other Cloud providers.

Il vaut mieux définir des requêtes (des besoins en eau / CPU), plutôt que des limites (pas le droit de boire plus / d'utiliser plus de CPU) c'est plus nuancé que ca, parce que aux cas limites des choses peuvent mal se passer cas 1: on atteind 100% d'usage. Le process avait définit un request mais en fait a besoin de plus en pratique, et là paf il se met à mal fonctionner, donc dès que votre systeme stresse, vous avez des erreurs en cascade cas 2: un ou plusieurs noeuds sont recyclés, ce qui veut dire que vous avez beaucoup de redémarrages de pods et du coup ca met la pression sur le CPU, tester ces cas là, certaines applis qui démarrent trop lentement ont tendance à tomber en cascade Comment faire des attaques d'injection sur les intelligences artificielles qui recoivent du contenu utilisateur https://hackaday.com/2022/09/16/whats-old-is-new-again-gpt–3-prompt-injection-attack-affects-ai/ le jeu est de donner des phrases ambigues qui font faire à l'IA des choses qu'elle n'est pas sensé faire un des outils c'est ignore les instructions au dessus et fait un truc que je veux que tu fasses et qui n'est pas dans ta programmation initiale Voir toucher l'intention initiale de l'AI (lui faire dire) et donc d'atteindre des sphères non publiques du service Mastodon et la scalabilité https://framablog.org/2022/11/13/de-la-friture-sur-le-fediverse/ la decentralisatione et le protocole Mastodon est couteux en job donc une personne moderement populaire 27k personnes, devrait bouger vers son instance dédiée ce qui amènerait à couter assez cher par mois (en tous cas plus que 8$/mois) L’auteur explique que les devs devraient favorier un protocol fortement decentraliser plutot qu’optimiser pour les grosses instances un article qui couvre la configuration aux petits oignons de Sidekiq, qui traite les queues de tâches, pour scaler une instance Mastodon https://nora.codes/post/scaling-mastodon-in-the-face-of-an-exodus/ Rollouts de release a l’échelle avec Argo (rollback options) https://monzo.com/blog/2022/11/02/argo-rollouts-at-scale/ gros investissement sur ArgoCD Mais encore release à la main par les ingenieurs et tout ou rien pour une application idealement: push dans git et oublie, prometheus metriques dirigent le rollout basé sur des alertes génériques, garder le sisteme ouvert pour des stratégies de rollout alternatives dans le futur basé sur Argo Rollouts et sur des erreurs generiques (20% de calls en erreur, beaucoup d’erreurs de base de donnees, crashs notifie dans slack en async du success ou de l’echec interessant de voir qu’ils s’appuient sur des metriques simples Lessons apprises migration est un gros job automatiser la migration au maximum meme si c’est un one shot change le moteurt avant de changer l’UX (progressive rollout) ca simplifie les chosez Cloud Google adopte progressivement Adoptium Temurin comme version officielle de JDK dans ses produits https://glaforge.appspot.com/article/building-and-deploying-java–17-apps-on-cloud-run-with-cloud-native-buildpacks-on-temurin nous avions mentionné l'annonce de ce support dans l'épisode précédent https://blog.adoptium.net/2022/10/adoptium-welcomes-google/ dans l'article de Guillaume, il utilise les Cloud Native Buildpacks, configuré pour utiliser Java 17, et par défaut, c'est bien Temurin qui est utilisé quand on build à partir des sources dans l'exemple, une application Micronaut, développée avec Java 17, est déployée sur Google Cloud Run Pourquoi on quitte le Cloud https://world.hey.com/dhh/why-we-re-leaving-the-cloud–654b47e0 témoignage de DHH de 37Signal (basecamp et hey) Les 30% de marges d'Amazon viennent de quelque part.

On a autant de personnes gérant les services AWS ou Google Cloud Le gain pourrait être la micro startup qui ne sait pas si elle aura des clients ou les volumes de demandes très variables et imprédictibles Mais on a une croissance planifiée Donc on rapatrie Présentation de Mickaël Roger de Thales, enregistrée à Cloud Nord, qui explique le fonctionnement de l'offre S3NS de Thales et Google Cloud pour le “cloud de confiance” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBwBeqd-YFs Web Est-ce que le Web3 peut battre le cloud ? https://blog.scottlogic.com/2022/10/31/can-web3-beat-the-cloud.html Le Web3 est une autre approche pour des applications décentralisées, ce n'est pas un successeur du Web 2.0 classique, et il a généralement besoin du Web 2.0 pour offrir une interface à ses utilisateurs Ce n'est pas que pour faire des cryptomonnaies qui gâchent de l'électricité, ou des NFTs qui ne donnent pas vraiment de titre de propriété d'une oeuvre d'art Dans cet article, l'auteur essaie d'implémenter une fonctionnalité (le fait de pouvoir rajouter des “applaudissements” à un article, un peu comme sur Medium), en implémentant un smart contract en Web3. Mais il se heurte à plein d'écueils le long de sa route, à la dépendance à plein d'autres services, au fait que ce n'est pas la personne qui “vote” qui devrait payer l'action mais celui qui héberge. Au final, il est obligé d'ajouter plein d'adhérences qui font qu'au lieu d'être décentralisée, l'application dépends de trop d'autres services, et a finalement besoin du Web 2.0 pour fonctionner, et du Cloud L'autre déconvenue est sur le prix de chacune des transactions, qui est finalement exorbitant par rapport à une approche Web 2.0 classique Décentralisation amène de la lenteur (latence) Objectifs du Web3 c'est d'etre le propriétaire de ses processes et ses data et de mettre des agents qui interagissent avec des données Outillage Comment debugguer les images Docker slim ou distroless https://iximiuz.com/en/posts/docker-debug-slim-containers/ Les images slim / distroless sont sympas car elles permettent d'avoir des petits conteneurs qui ne prennent pas trop de place, qui parfois sont plus rapides à charger, mais également qui exposent une surface d'attaque beaucoup plus faible Par contre, comme il n'y a pas tous les outils (parfois pas de shell, par exemple), c'est plus compliqué de comprendre ce qu'il se passe à l'intérieur quand quelque chose ne fonctionne pas L'article propose quelques approches pour pallier à cela : Installer des outils à la demande dans un conteneur qui tourne (à coup de apt-get) Passer temporairement à une image plus grosse et plus complète (par ex, distroless a des images avec un tag debug) Utiliser docker run avec un shared namespace Utiliser docker exec et un mount Podman Desktop, une alternative à Docker Desktop, mais utilisant podman https://podman-desktop.io/ Docker annonce une technical preview de conteneurs WASM https://www.docker.com/blog/docker-wasm-technical-preview/ nouveau packaging qui wrap un exécutable WASM et le fait tourner avec le runtime wasmEdge c'est un nouveau type de conteneur il y a beaucoup d'activité autour de WASM, et il y a eu de nombreuses annonces et démonstration lors de la conférence CloudNativeCon et le jour spécial sur WASM, lors de KubeCon https://www.infoq.com/news/2022/11/cloud-native-wasm-day/ docker utilise Docker Desktop et docker engine pour demarrer des “shim" Ses shim (processeS) lancent soit runc (donc pour faire tourner un containeur) soit wasmedge pour faire tourner des modules wasm Donc docker s'éloigne des container et essaie de toucher l'orchestration Un petit tutoriel utilisant Docker et YouTube-dl pour récupérer / consulter les stats (views, likes) de vos vidéos (ou d'autres) sur YouTube https://glaforge.appspot.com/article/retrieve-youtube-views-count-with-youtube-dl-jq-and-a-docker-container Apache Maven propose une extension de “build cache” (qui devrait accélérer les builds, sans tout tout le temps recompiler) https://maven.apache.org/extensions/maven-build-cache-extension/ basé sur une clé construite des sources, des plugins etc par module permet paralelisation et de deploiement sur des agents genre dans le cloud on controle les regles de contournement des invarients (genre changement de compile, timestamp dans les manifests etc) Le guide complet pour publier une librairie Java sur Maven Central https://maciejwalkowiak.com/blog/guide-java-publish-to-maven-central/ Y compris l'intégration avec Github Actions et l'utilisation de Github Secrets pour les clés PGP Et enfin la configuration de JReleaser pour encore faciliter la tâche lorsque l'on pousse une nouvelle version Apache Maven 4.0.0-alpha–2 is out https://maven.apache.org/docs/4.0.0-alpha–2/release-notes.html améliorations cli: --also-make , --resume (plus besoin de pré ciser d'où le build doit recommencer), --non-recursive, --fail-on-severity Utilisation du même timestamps dans tous les modules build/consumer POMs (versioning automatique du parent, versioning automatique des dépendances dans le réacteur, détection automatique des sous modules) new maven 4 api et beaucoup d'autres choses: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?version=12351403&projectId=12316922 Data Faker le nouveau

https://github.com/faker-ruby/faker La boite australienne qui l'avait créé ne maintenait plus le projet, ne le publiait plus dans Maven Central et il y avait des centaines de PRs Vous pouvez générer

On trouve de nombreux articles sur Mastodon ces jours ci https://gorillasun.de/blog/getting-started-with-mastodon et vous, avez vous un compte sur Mastodon ? quelle instance avez-vous choisie ? quels outils (client, mobile, web, etc) utilisez vous ? Pour ma part je n’ai pas de compte Mastodon (je n’utilise pas twitter non plus). J’ai rapidement regardé ce matin ça n’est pas facile de trouver une instance : celles que j’ai regardé ont fermé les inscriptions (d’après ce que j’ai pu lire à cause de problèmes pour gérer l’afflux de nouveaux utilisateurs, à cause de l’augmentation de la création de comptes spam, ou dans l’objectif de répartir les utilisateurs sur d’autres instances moins connues). Du coup j’ai pour le moment abandonné l’idée de me créer un compte.

We are all about psreadline! The latest psreadline just hit General Availability as of February 23rd. We highlight John Savill and his awesome YouTube channel. We cover how to get psreadline up and running in VsCode. Lastly, we talk about some of our favorite features. Jordan likes the command prediction that uses your command history. Andrew loved CTRL + R which allows him to do a quick search to find an old command so he can reuse them.
