Get started with gemini-cli: let’s vibecode an app On June 23rd, the DeepMind team has dropped a bomb 💣: gemini-cli ! I’m so excited to show you how it works so.. Why don’t we code an application from scratch? I had this idea this morning of making a more complex and good looking version of palladius/my-sessions-and-bio so.. Why don’t we do it in a language that I don’t speak? What did you say, Latin?

Vibe coding my first Chrome Extension with gemini-cli ! A few months ago, a colleague told me about an internal tool that my colleagues were building: a CLI version of an LLM code assist which is code and file-system aware, and can help you create/fix code, and maybe also create a feature branch for you and push to production. Think of a “bash version” of Cursor/Windsurf" (or a free version of Claude Code / Codex CLI), and built with my favourite model, ♊ **Gemini**!

Note: this is my first experiment: first I write in Hugo/markdown, and then I port to Medium! Code 🇮🇹 site 🇩🇪 site 🇫🇷 site Geminocks https://ricc.rocks/ is an underlooked gem of precious content, and I’m not biased at all: it’s my personal blog. 🤣 Inside you can find my family pics, my sport and hobbies, alongside my Google Cloud articles. Why? I just fell in love

(Original article on Medium) Are you familiar with Cloud Skills Boost (formerly known as Qwiklabs)? In this video, I walk you through me executing the steps described in Ruby on Rails with PostgreSQL on Cloud Run on cloudskillsboost website, encountering a few bumps along the road, and fixing them. Plus, I’m going to demonstrate my particular and personal ToolChain, as a former bash/perl dev, so it might look peculiar to you.

I fell in love with MJ. Some tips: https://www.wired.it/article/come-usare-midjourney/ See my gallery in this website: https://ricc.rocks/en/gallery/midjourney/ See my MJ page: https://www.midjourney.com/app/users/6f8c6312-ed0d-479f-b236-efbbffbb9823/ What it’s good for amazing at merging/bending different concepts and giving you an artistic view of something you know. Example: a mermaid chair , or a non-existent Giraffe Triggerfish. great at styling things (style of Caravaggio, Pixar, …).

The Original article on Medium: https://medium.com/google-cloud/setting-cloudbuild-with-pulumi-in-python-330e8b54b2cf watch video A couple of weeks ago, I fell in love with Pulumi. it has everything I wanted from Terraform: easy to set up, easy config management, a nice UI for free, and most importantly… language Support! Pulumi is the best invention after Buffalo Pizza and has only a problem.. no Ruby support :/ Anyway, I’m so in love with ⬣ GCP (which happens to pay my salary, I got to admit), Cloud Build, Cloud Deploy, and in general CI/CD pipelines on Google Cloud that I wanted to give it a try.

Alessandro is learning his fourth language this year! Reading and pronouncing all those sounds, dictongues , and all those vowels together can be off putting. Hence, I’ve asked Gemini to create a reading help, by language. Gemini answer Okay, this is a great way to help your son! Learning multiple languages at once is fantastic, but yes, the different ways letters combine and sound can be tricky. Here are four markdown tables, one for each language, focusing on some common pronunciation challenges for young learners.

Spaghetti bolognese: Everyone knows them… except Italians. Right, read it again if you don’t believe me… in Italy we don’t prepare that kind of pasta. What the hell, you may be wondering… Italy is famous for spaghetti and bolognese sauce (that we call “ragout alla bolognese” or simply ragü, but we would never mix these two things in the same dish). Why oh why, you may as well think? I think the reason can be found in two ways.
