Code & Comedy 2024–This session will give you 2.6 hours of your time back

Yesterday I had the pleasure to present at Code & Comedy 2024. Again it was a great combination of inspiring sessions, great food and a lot of nice people to meet.

All of this followed by a Comedy Act by Jan Jaap van der Wal. I never thought that AI could be that much fun!

Note to myself: Next time make sure that I’m not one of the 2 Flemish guys in the room.

I did a presentation titled "This session will give you 2,6h a day of your time back!"; which is a hard promise to make, so I hope that the participants could confirm if I succeeded or not.

In the session I shared some surprising insights in behavioral science and explained how we can apply this knowledge in building AI assistants.

In case you missed my session or you want to a look at the code in more detail, here are the relevant links:

I’m already looking forward for the next edition!

A single pod produces about 11 Kg CO2eq per year( here the calculation). Reason enough to give it a try! Installing kube-green in your cluster The easiest way to install the operator in your cluster is through kubectl. We first need to install a cert-manager: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.14.5/cert-manager.yaml Remark: Wait a minute before you continue as it can take some time before the cert-manager is up & running inside your cluster. Now we can install the kube-green operator: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kube-green/kube-green/releases/latest/download/kube-green.yaml Now in the namespace where we want t

DevToys–A swiss army knife for developers

As a developer there are a lot of small tasks you need to do as part of your coding, debugging and testing activities.  DevToys is an offline windows app that tries to help you with these tasks. Instead of using different websites you get a fully offline experience offering help for a large list of tasks. Many tools are available. Here is the current list: Converters JSON <> YAML Timestamp Number Base Cron Parser Encoders / Decoders HTML URL Base64 Text & Image GZip JWT Decoder Formatters JSON SQL XML Generators Hash (MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA512) UUID 1 and 4 Lorem Ipsum Checksum Text Escape / Unescape Inspector & Case Converter Regex Tester Text Comparer XML Validator Markdown Preview Graphic Color B
