Officially a Google Cloud Professional Cloud Security Engineer (PCSE). 🔐 Took a few detours along the way, built usable platforms on GCP to assert my engineering knowledge. Wrote the professional exam, and here we are.
Google Certified. ACE achieved. Cloud security next? Or maybe more Cloud architecture.

It's crazy out here. I've gotten so many scam job emails and LinkedIn outreaches. Some are quite sophisticated.
JUST IN: Binance says hackers used a fake job interview to hack an employee and gain access to its internal crypto wallets.

I was performing some security hardening on my project website and had to audit a particular service accounts logs. There I found an unexpected sniffer probing for credentials. Literally begging for anything. But there is nothing to give sadly. The repo itself is public😂

Eitherways, part of my security hardening is a Cloud Armor policy that drops probes like this before it gets to my backend. For now though, no credentials.

Bad/Good timing to get certified. GCP europe-west2 went down this week. php2shell CVE, Java CVE, eMudhra CA issue, NGINX CVE, Gitlab CVE. All critical/highs. Security and reliability is necessary work.

Most people are proposing multi-cloud, but i think multi-region within the EU should prevent this, while maintaining compliance and minimizing technical overhead.
‼️ BREAKING: Revolut's app and cards have stopped working across Europe. Google Cloud's London region is affected by network failures. Revolut, and many other services, runs on Google Cloud. Revolut says money and data are safe but has not named a cause.

“AI Edge Foresight” sounds like something you’d name a hardened security sandbox for AI agents with full network restrictions and multiple firewalls, not a notetaker. However, I shall be trying this out.
This is INSANE. Google just dropped a free AI notetaker app for Mac. Every premium feature works without any subscription. 100% free and fully local, powered by Embedding Gemma 2.

Finally wrote the blog on my GKE build: josephdara.hashnode.dev/gke-… Secure provisioning with Terraform, automated CI/CD, GitOps with Argo CD, and policy enforcement with Kyverno. Next up: adding AI inference workloads to the platform.

Couple of builds and teardowns.
Been deep in Helm and k8s clusters on GKE the last couple of days. I’ll probably drop a blog by Saturday.

Hey @thsottiaux , seems the analytics page in codex works perfectly but it's really buggy on /chatgpt.com The usage history section is replicated 15x.

Been using iOS 27.0 for a week now. Love the UI, but it’s the most buggy OS that @Apple has ever launched on the iPhone. It’s crazy that this isn’t a beta.
