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
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
As we have talked about before, the Internet relies on numerical addresses, IP addresses to route data from one device to another. IPv4 offers around 4.3 billion addresses, we have discussed that that is not enough. While there is IPv6, another solution to this issue is through Network Address Translation (NAT) NAT allows multiple devices on a private network to share a single public IP address. T
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
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. Rather than manually assigning IP addresses to devices when they join the network, DHCP does this on its own. Once a new device connects to the network, the DHCP is responsible for assigning in network configuration parameters such as subnet mask, default gateway, DNS servers, and an IP address. This saves time and effort as you do not have some
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
Optimisation HLS pour DOMTOM Ce dépôt documente une approche orientée ingénierie réseau pour optimiser la distribution HLS (HTTP Live Streaming) dans les territoires DOMTOM. L’objectif est d’améliorer la stabilité de lecture, la latence effective et la robustesse face aux variations de gigue, tout en respectant les contraintes de décodage client, de parsing de manifestes, et de routage ISP.
