Last night, we cut the v3 release of registry (aka distribution); this is the first major stable release in [I lost the track how many] years. It's the culmination of years of effort by the container community and maintainers. Test it and report issues

You can use all the AI tooling you want, but if it don't know how to break a problem down into discrete units of functionality that can be assigned, coded, and tested, I'm not sure it matters.

In fact, it might make things worse.

A lot of cool ship in this
We shipped a lot over Christmas and I came here to release it:

I hacked on Anthropic's model context protocol in Go this past week because why not...probably my last Go project for a bit while. It's a wild PoC but seems to work ok in my experiments.

Mario Draghi: "[Growth] has been well below what could have been achieved [due among other things to] restrictive fiscal policy. This depressed growth rate has in turn lowered innovation, which then further lowered the growth rate."

Policy Insight 137: Europe: Back to Domestic Growth
On 15 December 2024, Mario Draghi spoke at a dinner hosted by CEPR, in association with its 3rd Paris Symposium, about his recently published report on the future of European competitiveness. Domestic growth in Europe has been well below what could have been achieved in recent years, due to factors such as lack of progress in removing barriers within the single market and restrictive fiscal policy. This depressed growth rate has in turn lowered innovation, which then further lowered the growth rate. Maintaining the current EU social model will be costly and such low growth rates cannot support this. Draghi speaks eloquently about the structural reforms and large scale investments needed within Europe to improve the situation.

The fact that I have to explicitly spell out a type to #golang compiler in this very simple code will never stop driving me nuts. It should be clever enough to infer it from the context.

If you ever wondered how to do CI/CD in gen AI apps, Luke's got you sorted
Test Driven Development (TDD) for your LLMs? Yes please, more of that please!

Back to basics - write a test, see the test fail, improve the prompt, see it pass, check it in - just like you would with any other code 😄

*Commodity* hardware outpacing what's available in the cloud is an interesting trend that seems to support betting on maybe-not-just-cloud.
