This new from @docker.com: Docker Offload enables you to run container setups in the cloud, right from your dev machine, also for #AI since it offers GPU acceleration - together with models in compose files, MCP support, this is very exciting! www.docker.com/products/doc... #AgenticAI #DockerOffload

Docker Offload: Supercharging Cloud-Native Development | Docker

Build, test, and scale resource-intensive models by moving AI workloads to the cloud with Docker Offload. All while accessing high-performance GPUs without leaving your local workflow.

Not too ugly in #Scotland today. In the distance: my neighbors.

People say it’s weird how I like to pick up with old friends as if no time had passed. I think it’s weird not to! Is there a time limit on friendship? Auto-unfriend after X months? Nah. Real friends don’t expire. Let's be friends. Unlimited.

Must plan ahead for the important things in life. #JethroTull

I generally prefer MacPorts (www.macports.org) over Homebrew (brew.sh) on my Mac. I have both because sometimes I need them for convenience, but Homebrew has a horrible habit of unexpectedly updating loads of stuff due to over-simplified dependency handling. Go #MacPorts !

Did you know that Apple includes the ancient bash 3.2 from 2007 in macOS by default? Apparently they want to avoid GPLv3 for system components. bash is common in shell scripts and features added in the last 18 years will cause issues! Get a current bash from brew.sh or www.macports.org !

Still on the topic of shell work, since I've never mentioned it before: go grab Atuin (yes, Terry Pratchett!) to handle your history. Never again lose that cool command you wrote! Easy to use, this thing gets going within two minutes or so. atuin.sh

Atuin - Magical Shell History

Sync, search and backup shell history with Atuin

Nushell is a new shell, and I've now decided I like it after several tries over the years. It handles data elegantly enough, without dropping relevant features I'd miss after using other shells for more than 30 years. Try it! Of course the name is great. Nu? #nushell www.nushell.sh

WhatsApp breaks the promise to not show ads. Remember how WhatsApp used to be a paid service? Now they want your data instead of your money. www.msn.com/en-in/techno... In completely unrelated news, if you have my phone number you can also find me on Signal. No ads there. Really. signal.org

Signal Messenger: Speak Freely

Say "hello" to a different messaging experience. An unexpected focus on privacy, combined with all of the features you expect.

Fantastic news from @docker.com: I've been renewed as a Docker Captain for another year! Many thanks to everybody at Docker for making such a brilliant product, and especially to Eva Bojorges for keeping us Captains involved! #Docker #DockerCaptains

This week I'll be presenting at #DevSum in Stockholm. Brilliant lineup at this event, check out their agenda. Say hi if you see me there! www.devsum.se

New key switches again! Sunset chocs in my #ZSA #Voyager were rougher than I'd like. Decided to try clicky Jade for a change. Oh my, so clicky! Prob not my last change. Is there a tactile alternative between Brown and Sunset? #MechanicalKeyboards www.zsa.io/voyager keebd.com/en-gb/produc...

github.com/oliversturm/... - an #OpenAI #LLM app with #dotNET #API and #React front-end. The use-case is mighty weird, but the pattern is super cool. Nice work @bsky.oliversturm.com.
