Running local LLMs sounds great until your 32GB VRAM 5090 can’t fit a decent model at full precision. Quantize it? Accuracy drops. Big context? KV cache eats your memory. Benchmarks don’t show this reality. Cloud models still win for most users.

Understanding Effects:
• what they are
• when to use them
• how they differ from computed signals
• common mistakes to avoid

I don’t know if I have noticed, but there is a lack of support for locally hosted models for all major IDEs. I’ve been testing some local models, and for instance, @code works well for chatting but is terrible for agent mode, even for models that support tools. It seems there’s a movement to keep forcing us always to use public AIs. #visualstudiocode #programming #llms #localai

Okay, I ended up buying an entry-level M4 Mac Mini with 16GB of RAM to test this AI hype on a Mac. I will share the details with you soon.

We’re back!

I'll be hosting @devops_thiago in the next session of the Out of the Box Developer podcast to talk about Observability and OpenTelemetry.

I think I became the person I was afraid to be, the one who, even on vacation, pays 7 euros for in-flight internet not to be disconnected from the world 🤣

[Thiago Gonzaga @devops_thiago]

Time to say goodbye to ChatGPT. It's been a while since I downgraded my Go subscription. Still, it became irrelevant and expensive compared to other tools like Claude and Gemini, which deliver much better results, especially for coding. What about you? Have you already picked a side in this subscription hell battle? #ai #LLMs #ChatGPT #Claude #Gemini

[Thiago Gonzaga @devops_thiago]

What if I could have my own LLM server? So I bought the entry version of Mac Mini M4 version 16GB RAM and turned it into an LLM server, I will use primarily for inference and coding, let’s see how it goes

🚀 I’ve started a new YouTube course: Modern Angular

From zero → advanced, using how Angular is meant to be written today:
• Standalone components
• Signals-first patterns
• Modern templates & tooling
• Real projects, no legacy fluff

Cursor: Year in Code — 2025 ⁦@cursor_ai⁩

[Thiago Gonzaga @devops_thiago]

Yay! I've been accepted as a speaker at the @jcon_conference 2026 in Cologne. I'll be talking about “Building Observable Java Apps that Scale with Quarkus.” Can't wait to meet Java folks there in April, 20-23!

🚨 AI WILL replace developers!

But not the ones who understand the business.

After a year of testing Cursor, Copilot, Kiro, Gemini CLI & Claude Code, I built my own framework for coding with AI.

Here's my AI-Coding workflow 🧵👇
