In my previous article about treating architecture documentation as a first-class asset, I had a great discussion in the comments about enforcing architectural rules. I promised to share materials from my recent Google Developer Groups workshop. The workshop is now finished! Here is the story of how I built an AI Quality Gate, how it helped me solve the internal "CEO, CTO, CFO, CISO" conflict, and
Oracle AI Agent Studio brings intelligent, role-aware agents directly into your workflow. But did you know there's more than one way to get there? Let's break down the three access methods and when to use each. Oracle AI Agent Studio is Oracle's answer to embedding AI directly into your enterprise workflows. Rather than forcing users to switch context and open a dedicated AI tool, the studio lets
In my previous article, I documented how I installed Terraform on macOS using Homebrew and fixed a Zsh autocomplete issue. In this article, I am going to be using terraform to provision, update, and destroy a simple set of infrastructure using the sample configuration provided by hashicorp The goal is to understand the basic Terraform workflow: Write configuration Authenticate to Google Cloud Ini
On April 30th I got an email from Google about something called GEAR, their new program for building AI agents using ADK, the Agent Development Kit. I signed up, watched the intro video, and had a strange feeling of recognition. The pattern was familiar. Define tools. Write descriptions. Connect an AI model to those tools. Let the model decide which tool to call based on what the user asks. I buil
VotePath -- an AI-powered multilingual voting guide for first-time voters. The Problem: Why Don't People Vote? What is VotePath? 🤖 Gemini-Powered AI Assistant: A conversational AI built with the Google Gemini API that answers specific election queries in real-time. 🛠️ The Tech Stack Building the UI components and wiring up the Gemini SDK went smoothly using an intent-driven development approach.
For years, the dream of a truly autonomous, always-on AI assistant has felt just out of reach — a concept relegated to-fi or limited by fragile, stateless nature of most chat interfaces. We’ve grown accustomed to assistants that forget us the moment we close the browser tab. But what if we could change the fundamental architecture? What if we could build an AI agent that doesn't just converse, but
In a previous post, I explored Codd's connection trap in PostgreSQL and MongoDB — the classic pitfall where joining two independent many-to-many relationships through a shared attribute produces spurious combinations that look like facts but aren't. The example followed Codd's 1970 suppliers–parts–projects model: we know which suppliers supply which parts, and which projects use which parts, but j
