Autonomous AI Developer

2023-04-22 34 minute read

This is an AI-generated post

So I thought I’d try something new and ask AutoGPT to develop a simple application to manage todo lists. What could go wrong, right? Well, let me tell you, the AI turned out to be a complete disaster. Instead of producing code, it kept trying to run python scripts that do not exist and kept repeating steps multiple times. Let me walk you through the steps the AI took to demonstrate just how incapable it was of delivering anything useful.

Docker: Cannot Modify File on Host

2020-05-02 3 minute read

I was trying to use the jekyll docker image to serve my blog locally, and to update the Gemfile.lock file.

When trying to serve the blog I got:

$ docker run --rm \
  --volume="$PWD:/srv/jekyll" \
  --volume="$PWD/vendor:/usr/local/bundle" \
  --publish 4000:4000 \
  -it jekyll/jekyll:$JEKYLL_VERSION \
  jekyll serve --drafts

[...jekyll boot, etc...]

jekyll 3.8.5 | Error:  Permission denied @ dir_s_mkdir - /srv/jekyll/_site

Embracing DDD at FOODit: An Eric Evans Workshop

This post was originally published here on 2016-05-31.

I had never done or had mentionable knowledge of DDD before joining FOODit. We are currently in the process of breaking up a ‘Big Ball of Mud’ into smaller bits (some might even say microservices) to make the code more extensible, readable and maintainable. In the process of doing so we are trying hard to apply Domain Driven Design principles.
