I wrote a tutorial on running your own AI chat on Jetstream2. Jetstream2 is a research cloud, and ACCESS is the program that helps U.S. researchers use it. I show how to start a GPU VM, run `llama.cpp`, and chat through a web UI. zonca.dev/posts/2026-03-…

Confluence is still a miserable place to keep useful content, so here’s a better escape route: export pages and attachments straight to Markdown with `confluence-cli` via the API. zonca.dev/posts/2026-03-…

I built sphinxnotebookgist, a Sphinx extension for keeping Jupyter notebooks clean in git while rendering executed outputs in docs. It verifies source cells before using a remote executed notebook. zonca.dev/posts/2026-03-…

Simplify the maintenance of a Docker Image for #Jupyterhub using repo2docker and #Github actions: zonca.dev/posts/2026-03-… Notice that inside Github action I am using Kind to actually deploy Zero to JupyterHub in #Kubernetes and test the image inside it.

As an alternative to deploy `nbgrader` on Zero-to-JupyterHub using `ngshare`, on Jetstream 2 we can also rely on the shared filesystem service provided by Openstack Manila: zonca.dev/posts/2026-03-…

Gemini 3.1 Pro is ramping up in Google Antigravity, starting with Google AI Ultra and Pro users! This model brings our most advanced reasoning and long horizon planning to your development workflow.

New tutorial: deploy nbgrader on Jetstream with ngshare (#Kubernetes). Covers ngshare install, #JupyterHub integration, student workflow, and autograding with expected outputs. zonca.dev/posts/2026-02-…

New tutorial for Academics: Use GitHub Copilot Pro models (GPT, Claude, Gemini) directly in your terminal with OpenCode Assistant. Free with .edu email thanks to Github Education. zonca.dev/posts/2026-01-… #AI #GitHub #Coding

New tutorial: Set up shared NFS-backed home dirs and shared data for JupyterHub on Kubernetes to avoid per-user volume attach delays and speed up logins. zonca.dev/posts/2026-01-… #Jetstream2

@oguzhankocakli thanks for providing a @trello MCP server, may I help you maintain it? I fixed an encoding issue github.com/kocakli/Trello… and vibe-coded unit tests github.com/kocakli/Trello…

@AmexBusiness I am haunted by this really annoying popup every time I login to my business credit card. Really annoying, I am trying to get stuff done here. Is there a way to disable it permanently after 100 or 200 times that I clicked no?

New tutorial on running the @nextflowio workflow management software on @SDSC_UCSD Expanse supercomputer. zonca.dev/posts/2025-10-… I'm impressed on how easy to use and elegant Nextflow is, also their training material is great: training.nextflow.io
