For my dear network here… just a few fun facts … this is what I work with daily at The LEGO Group…

Kubernetes services
Terraform IaC
Java/Spring Boot
TypeScript/React
Async APIs via Pulsar
OpenAPI APIs via Kong
AWS SQS, S3, RDS, …

Soon-To-be: C# services

Coding mainly. Normal engineer 😀
On Fabulab today I played around with using a custom MCP server from Copilot in IntelliJ && Visual Studio Code.

My hacky super simple MCP server could make a few API calls to our service (localhost only 😇).

It was ✨amazing✨ to experience how copilot got super charged for “my needs”.

Try it 🕺🏼🤠👌🏻

Travel day 👏🏻 - going for a 3-day seminar with my company (the LEGO group) 🕺🏼. More specifically my department OMP (hundreds of nerds)

I think we are going to learn about eachother and how to be amazing teams and colleagues 😂

Hoping for fun days at a very fancy hotel 🏨🤠

Happy dolphin to all of you 👋🏻

Wild how the price of AI functionality that costs $$$ to develop and $$ to operate is being subsidized to zero - to gain market share.

By Google making this move: expect Microsoft to follow, and AI coding startups having little to no choice but to also offer generous free tiers.

I hope you never need this, but it is now possible to move resources between AWS CloudFormation stacks, and to rename logical IDs:

Sooo the plans “we” had ended up well: a trip to the beach. Cold but nice. Also … cake and hot chocolate ☕️

Have the day off today. I wonder what to do… zero plans except training (running and some strength training) and hopefully cozy family time…watching a movie or two

But ofc my wife may have a lot of plans for me/us that I am yet to discover 🤪

Last night I wanted to build a small but useful feature on top of an existing codebase. I knew what I wanted, roughly where to change things.

A) Use an AI agent and spend an hour promoting and it will still get it wrong

B) Just code it in 5-10 minutes and get it right first

As a noob c# developer I must say I find the build system remarkably simple - at least for my use case until now.

I really like how I can just add targets that I can then call from the dotnet CLI. And even cooler; hook them into the build phase etc.

Pretty da** simple 🤠🤠👌🏻

Podman instead of Docker

www.thomasvitale.com/podman-deskt...

With a grain of #java. However you can easily see how Podman CLI (and Desktop) can help you with other dev languages too 👍🏻
Podman Desktop for Java Development
Install and configure Podman Desktop for Java development (Spring Boot, Quarkus, Testcontainers, Buildpacks).

Today we had a “C# Day” at work: just for my “Competency Group”. It was really awesome. There was a fun language quiz, discussions about what C# community we wanted (if any) and a mini hackathon with AI as a theme 🤗☕️🤠

Awesome day. I learned a lot and had a great time with C# gurus 👏🏻☕️☕️☕️

You can always spot a scam call from Google because real Google will never give enough of a shit about a customer to call them in the first place.

Jeezzzz I have been having my fight with Jekyll / GitHub Pages / Bootstrap / CSS since I added a news feed 😆

See… the news feed looked so terrible that I had to fix my posts (running blog only for now) layout.

Here if you like to see what it’s about: moelholm.com

Hope it looks ok for you 😂😂
