I presented a session at the .NET Conference Italia 2025 in Milan a couple of weeks ago. The title was “Integrating our applications with LLMs and AI via MCP Servers”. It was well received; there were good questions throughout the talk and in the hall afterward. Surprisingly, live coding and demos went relatively smoothly. The fine guys at ASP Italia just published the video in case someone is interested. Yeah, it is in Italian. I g..

If you want to understand time — which is how you come to befriend life — turn to stone. Climb a mountain and listen to the conversation between eons encoded in each stripe of rock. Walk a beach and comb your fingers through the golden dust that was once a mountain. Pick up a perfect oval pebble and feel its mute assurance that time can grind down even the heaviest boulder, and smooth even the sharpest edge.

In reply to S Rose. Thanks, great catch. It would have been impressive for anyone to have written a whole book about Evacuation Day within a month of the evacuation. I fixed the typo. (Article link: https://thenewleafjournal.com/history-of-new-yorks-evacuation-day/)

Everytime I go to a waiting room and am subjected to the background noise of daytime TV, I'm baffled by how insipid and obnoxious every second of it is. Who is this for? Why do they still bother? Even the old people in these waiting rooms just look at their phone. Silence, or some nice music, would be infinitely preferable. Are there seriously still people who sit down and watch this commercial laced junk, as an activity in itself? Even in ..

They have rebranded slightly from Microstrategy, now called just Strategy. I have been trying to sort the signal from the noise, which isn't all that obvious.

With all the medium-to-very-low-quality productions we’ve been accustomed to from Netflix, it was a pleasant surprise and a relief to watch Train Dreams last night.

The film evokes our own memories, little joys and sadnesses, discoveries, losses, and hopes, bringing grace to our self-reflection. The film is heartbreakingly beau..

I was walking early this morning, as usual , when I came across an unusual advertising sign. It was in Spanish, text only, red background and black typography. I don’t comprehend Spanish well enough to read it, so I photographed it and sent it to Serena, who promptly replied with the translation. Embarrassingly, just yesterday, I got a severe reprimand from Serena because I did not know or remember what day it was today. When I got back,..

In my previous post, I showed you how to build a CI/CD pipeline runner from scratch in Python . We built something powerful: a system that could orchestrate jobs, manage dependencies, and pass artifacts between stages. It was the muscles of your deployment workflow. But here’s the problem: that pipeline runner can only do exactly what you tell it to do. It’s 2 AM. Your deployment pipeline fails. The error message is cryptic: Error: Con....

I occasionally add context instructions to an AI tool, but then am not sure whether those changes were picked up by the tool. The fun way to debug this is to add “Always speak like a pirate” to the instructions. This works in all tools. Context engineering! Context I use LLM tools like Claude Code. These come with the ability to customise the context fed to the model with files like ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md or
