Refactor Katas start to be a nice hoby to me.
- Takes an hour or two, a "quikie" that is fun
- not that intensive and usually in times when I am not suitable for any real work
- helps me revisit things in a new way
- A damn good way to learn new languages

Contrast runs confidential container deployments on Kubernetes at scale.

Contrast is based on the #Kata Containers and provides an implementation of the confidential containers concept. Confidential containers are Kubernetes pods that are executed inside a confidential #microVM and provide strong hardware-based isolation from the surrounding environment. This works with unmodified containers in a lift-and-shift approach.

Here you can see GDKata in action :) I think it turned out quite nice #godot #kata #learnprogramming #coding #gdscript

https://github.com/Paragrimm/GDKata

Since nobody cared: I polished it a bit and made it open source. I think it's a nice resource to #learn #godot and #gdscript via code #kata. Feel free to add further Katas :). Also make sure to read the disclaimer as I've used AI for the finishing touch to save time.

Yeah, did another week of the #coding #kata from @cassidoo !
This time the question was to find a "konami-code" mapping for a given string.

I was completely baffled what a "konami-code" is but after understanding that the question was straight forward.
I had the #AI solve it as well. It came up with a nice suggestion how to make sure that the characters had to be "unique", by just using the mapping and checking it's length.
Good stuff, I did that with an inefficient for-loop.

I also found a weird behaviour in #golang. Will post about it later.

Did the "Hungry Bears" #programming #kata by @cassidoo for this week. I did not try to optimize for length but did use the time to create generic Map, Reduce, Filter functions. They will help a lot in the future :)
