🤯 LLM dev tools everywhere - CNDO #61

🗓️ What's new this week

The LLM tooling onslaught continues! Continue is on the show this week and I just got access to GitHub Copilot Workspace technical preview and will report back on it soon.

There's also Devin, GPTScript (which we're working to get on the show), Kapa.ai (which I'm playing with for my Udemy courses), Phind, and many more... so my big question is:

Which of these tools will we be using for DevOps-specific roles in two years?

We're all working with a near-unlimited amount of tooling, but even if you want to be a AI tooling leader in DevOps, who's got time to thoroughly test all these tools, and which ones will still be here in 2 years? If I've missed a DevOps-specific AI tool, or you have opinions, hit me up on X or Discord.

🔴 Thursday's show: Free LLM for VS Code and JetBrains, replace ChatGPT and Copilot: Continue.dev

We have continue.dev co-founder, Nate Sesti, on the show to walk through a open-source replacement for GitHub Copilot. Continue lets you use a set of open source and closed source LLMs in JetBrains and VSCode IDEs for adding AI to your coding workflow without leaving the editor. Join Nirmal and me to ask Nate questions.

Ep 160: Chainguard: Building Secure Container Images

In my latest podcast, Nirmal and I are joined by Dan Lorenc from Chainguard, who walks us through Chainguard's approach to building secure, minimal container images for popular open source software.

We talk about why it's important to have secure and minimal container images. Dan explains how Chainguard helps eliminate the pain of CVEs, laggy software updates and patches, and much more. Chainguard is now available also on Docker Hub.

The first part of the show discussed the week's big news: the XZ supply chain attack, and Dan was the best man to explain it. During this jam-packed show, they also touched on CVEs, things you can do to reduce the attack surface, SLSA, and more.
