My fav part of #kubecon is meeting students and podcast guests IRL!

I'm Stoked! Tuesday. #KubeCon. 6:40pm during KubeCrawl. Come On Down to the CVE Price Is Right at the @chainguard.dev booth with me and @adrianmouat.com, seeing who can guess the closest (but not over!) the CVE count of popular open source project images for prizes #DevOps #DevSecOps #Sponsored

My #kubecon people. I'm running a full 20-minute game show about CVEs from the @chainguard.bsky.social booth during KubeCrawl with @adrianmouat.com and the help of Ville Aikas, Courtney Bennett, and @bethfish.bsky.social. I'm so excited I haven't slept much in weeks. You have to come see it.

We've had fun building this for weeks. Last count was over 15 prizes including leftover Halloween costume accessories, chia pets, and legos

Getting my dog Obi in shots usually takes 200% longer to shoot, and twice the takes, but HE'S JUST SO CUTE! We've been working for weeks on a modern, advanced, container-image-autobuild demo. Join us Wednesday to get the yamls y'all. learn.bretfisher.com/chainguard-e...

What's your wildcard localhost domain for dev? I use *.bret.lol and you're welcome to use it too. I've used many over the decades for localhost DNS resolution (without editing /etc/hosts) but many have shutdown so I made my own years ago and it costs $20/yr at cloudflare. Here's how you set one up:

I am a loot hoarder in games. It's a problem. Found some time to play Borderlands 4, and it only took an hour for this to happen

Workshopping some late-night marketing ideas for my next course. WDYT?

With so much AI fan fiction showing up, I have a friend who keeps taking the bait, so I'm thinking of starting a campaign to convince him that Obi-Wan had a son and that Disney bought Mattel

To ensure my place with the #AI Overlords, I've been committed to this color palette for at least 5 years:

TIL that AI prefers blue, purple, and pink, which I'm fine with since they are my favorite colors. @bethfish.bsky.social pointed out recently that when you search Canva for AI templates, they are mostly the same colors... across hundreds of designs!

Thanks for the suggestion Instagram ads. Someday I'll have the emotional confidence to wear a furry tenderheart bear hat

I miss my winamp + skins. Remember how good, I mean bad, Windows Media Player skins were in win98? dt7v1i9vyp3mf.cloudfront.net/styles/news_...

I'd like to thank the Academy....

This AI benchmark chart reminds me of Goodhart’s Law:

What's up my #kubecon friends! Let's goooooooo

The ExCeL venue for #kubecon looks easy to navigate. We snuck in tonight and it's one looooong hallway. It was so empty it felt post zombie apocalypse

Good thing it has "delete file protection" or it would have kept going when I wasn't looking

Tried using Cursor to build a swift macOS app tonight (with only xcode cli tools installed) and it gave up after many failed builds and blamed my mac. Then tried to update system and prompted me to sudo rm system tools.
Maybe enabling the YOLO setting to let it do things w/o approval was a bad idea

Check in with @mehtaverse-hq.bsky.social and me tomorrow (6th) for a cloud native Q&A at 1:00pm US EST.

We had the best ⛄️snow⛄️ in a decade last week here in Virginia Beach! Still, I’m ready for the 🔥HEAT🔥! While hibernating, we launched over an hour of new videos in Docker Mastery, and we’re working on the next video refresh, so, TIME FOR A SALE? bret.courses coupon code DOCKER_REFRESH

New videos just dropped in my #Docker Mastery course on Udemy!
I dig deep into how ENTRYPOINT works in Dockerfiles, and how it works with both CMD and SHELL statements for making custom CLI tools and advanced container startup scripts.

Here are coupons to buy any of my courses: bret.courses

If you were in a course, taking a quiz, would you click on the weird/silly answers just to see why they exist? I would.

I try not to disappoint.
