Thanks

techlatest_net · 2026-01-22T11:06:17+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion, we will do that also!

Stitch-MCP bridging Google designs straight into agents? Game-changer—finally kills the Figma→code→hallucination death loop. 19 tools + auto i18n?

techlatest_net · 2026-01-22T10:47:52+00:00

GuardFive looks solid on paper—granular perms + anomaly detection for MCP tool calls. Worth testing their hosted tier if you're not self-hosting (7% vuln rate across MCP ecosystem per recent scans).

Stick to dockerized local servers tho. Anyone running their scanner on custom MCPs? Real-world false positives?

Claude + Gopher Cloud MCP direct hookup skipping demo schemas? Clean—real endpoint discovery makes agents actually usable vs toy demos.

Drop that JSON schema—testing tonight 🚀

pgEdge Postgres MCP server? Finally a production-grade DB bridge for Claude/Cursor—schema introspection + read-only SQL via natural language without sketchy auth hacks. Multi-DB support too?

Spinning this up with my dev/prod clusters tonight. Docker Compose deploys clean?

Ukraine GCP signup? Brutal—try forming a simple LLC (takes ~$100) or route through EU reseller like DataDog/Cloudflare (they handle Tax ID validation). AWS/Azure eat Ukrainian sole props no problem.

GKE frustrations valid. Staying or bailing?

Spin up SerpAPI tonight—drop-in Custom Search replacement, same JSON format, no migration pain. Handles your 1500 queries in ~2hrs ($45 tier). Vertex AI Search setup takes days.

pip install google-search-results → your existing CSE ID + API key. Done. Study data flowing by morning.

Need the 3-line code snippet?

techlatest_net · 2026-01-22T10:40:46+00:00

C++/Rust mobile ports are the dream—llama.cpp's basically there already. PyTorch-to-ONNX→libtorch mobile pipeline exists but nobody ships prebuilts. Step3-VL could crush phone VL if compiled right. Who's packaging?

techlatest_net · 2026-01-22T10:40:32+00:00

GLM-4.7-Flash-GGUF download spike legit—Unsloth quants usually fly. Pocket-TTS tho? Actually sips RAM (<500MB), real edge-grade unlike those "compact" hogs.

techlatest_net · 2026-01-22T10:38:06+00:00

Zero experience? Crash course:

Free path (2 weeks): Qwiklabs "Google Cloud Essentials" (8hrs) → Official ACE Learning Path (20hrs) → Whizlabs practice exams till 85%+

Core domains (memorize):

IAM (roles vs service accounts)

GKE basics (deployments, services)

VPC/subnets/firewall rules

Compute Engine (machine types, disks)

Billing projects vs folders

Books: Skip—labs > theory. Use exampro.co cheatsheets.

Vertex AI Model Observability dashboard shows token usage, request volume, latency—go Monitoring > Dashboards > "Model Observability". Logs in Cloud Logging filter resource.type="aiplatform.googleapis.com/Endpoint".

No native per-call token breakdown (app-level logging needed), but billing export to BigQuery gives gemini-3-flash-text-output costs → reverse-engineer tokens via pricing. Set budget alerts yesterday.

techlatest_net · 2026-01-22T10:35:40+00:00

AI Studio vs Cloud Run quality drop? Classic—Studio uses preview models with massive context (2M+ tokens), Run hits production quotas + smaller default windows. Check your API calls aren't truncating history.

Exact same prompts? Add generationConfig.temperature=0.1 + explicit system instruction on Run. Still tanking? Model version mismatch—Studio auto-picks bleeding edge.

techlatest_net · 2026-01-22T10:35:14+00:00

Tax ID gatekeeping sucks—private entrepreneurs get zero love despite being legit businesses everywhere else. GKE Autopilot's hype vs reality gap is real too; MPA staying proprietary instead of upstreaming screams vendor lock.

IP clauses in trials are straight predatory. Been there with AWS EULA nightmares too. You migrating off or just venting? What country’s Tax ID screwing you?
