The Conversation U.S.Karoline Leavitt’s White House briefings aren’t just spin – they reflect what George Orwell warned about: lies divorced from reality, and the use of “doublethink” to have a word (like “transparency”) mean just the opposite. A historian who studies Orwell explains:
Starting 2 weeks off work, and weather forecast is to rain the whole first week. 😩 #luckyme
Also on AI side, I’m doing an experiment on writing tests for ansible-freeipa and it is going… well… as expected. Some amazing results, some completely crazy hallucinations.
The plan is to have some skills that can be used later, to speed up test plan implementation.
This has been a great journey, as I don’t know how to use the testing framework. In this case, AI actually helped me tu start to understand the framework.
Only one more week in 2025!
#todayatwork Finally got Bragai to work cleanly with Claude CLI. I still have a ton of configurations to fix so the output is what I want, and I need to define some skills for it to follow my workflow. It’s MCP to manage Jira and the access to GitHub tickets (through gh CLI) make managing issues a lot easier. The plan is to let it create the executive summaries.
The scenario based development environment for FreeIPA WebUI is finally merged. Found a late bug, and there’s already a PR to fix it.
I need to get back to writing. I miss it.
It’s not the I like my writing (I actually don’t), but writing pushes me to experiment new stuff, think thoroughly about whatever it is I’m writing about, and it is a way to give it a closure.
I’ll have some days off soon, and I need to find a subject for that period.
#todayatwork I finally polished some PRs I’ve been accumulating during last week.
Also, I’ve started a feature that will allow ipalab-config to “glob mount” directories to an image, following a PR I had merged to `Podman-compose`. It will add more flexibility on image creation and container instantiation (e.g.: repos).
On AI side, I’ve tweaked a tool that I’m finally happy to aos me on daily planning.
It’s been a week since I had half a day to implement stuff. Today was a good day. 😉

The clash between small volunteer-driven, open-source projects, such as FFmpeg & the billion-dollar companies built on their work, which demand rapid security patches, is heating up.
nixCraft 🐧With all the advancements in technology, do you think we will see a smaller data center that uses less energy and cooling due to the reduced size of servers, especially GPUs, in the next 20 years?
