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
El problema real Gestionar infraestructura manualmente sigue siendo uno de los mayores puntos de fricción en equipos DevOps. Cambios no auditados, configuraciones inconsistentes entre ambientes y despliegues manuales generan errores difíciles de rastrear y operaciones poco confiables. La solución moderna es automatizar completamente el ciclo de vida de infraestructura y despliegue utilizando Inf
When most developers want to scan their code for security vulnerabilities, they install Semgrep or Snyk and call it a day. I did the opposite. I built one from scratch. Not because the existing tools are bad — they're excellent. But because I'm transitioning from 13 years of software engineering into application security, and I wanted to understand what a SAST tool actually is underneath the hood.
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

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
