I’ve been discussing with colleagues and friends how Gen AI is able to revolutionize code writing. Some people use embedded coding auxilia (Gemini Code, copilot, Cursor, ..), some use just a browser window to get snippets of code which they cut and paste into the IDE (what can go wrong, right pythonists?). This article is about sharing lessons learnt in my journey as the perfect lazy developer (minimum effort, maximum rendering - as we say in Italian).

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, …).

Scuba Diving in Indonesia

My Scuba Diving Experience in Raja Ampat A big thanks to my amazing wife ❤️ for letting me take a solo scuba diving trip to Raja Ampat, a true diver’s paradise located west of Indonesia! Raja Ampat’s Beauty I encountered some incredible marine life, including a rare animal facing extinction in the coming decades. I also spotted a beautiful sea turtle while diving near Sauwandarek village. Life on Wai Island

The Original article here: 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.

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.

My wonderous family: my wife (Kate), and my two kids (Alessandro and Sebastian)
