Daily Reading List – September 11, 2025 (#626)

Tomorrow’s a day off as I go visit my kiddo at college and see how he’s doing. I’ll be back on Monday, most likely not wearing cowboy boots and a ten-gallon hat. But don’t rule anything out.

[article] RSS co-creator launches new protocol for AI data licensing. It probably makes sense to have something along these lines to create some predictability for AI companies and data providers.

[blog] The Best Way to Keep a Secret in the Cloud Is Not to Have a Secret at All: The Birth of “Secretless” Cloud Workloads. Given the growing number of non-human identities, I’d imagine that we need new ideas around security. Here’s one.

[blog] Generating videos in Java with Veo 3. Yes, Java devs get to have all the fun too. Guillaume follows up on his post about generating images with this banger about generating videos.

[blog] MCP is replacing the browser: Here’s how devs should prepare. This is one of the best things I’ve read on this angle. Yes, apps, UIs, security, and many things are about to shift as agents + MCP replace the need to browse everywhere to get something done.

[blog] Building a Custom MCP Server for Gemini CLI: A Hands-on guide. Start making this happen for real by building up some MCP servers and seeing how your behaviors change.

[article] Building AI-Resistant Technical Debt. Just because we can generate code faster, doesn’t mean we can (or should!) skip design checks, quality reviews, or any of that. It takes time to build instincts about good software, and we need to keep developing that skill.

[article] AI cuts onboarding time in half for new hires in the enterprise. This doesn’t surprise me in the least. Customized, personalized learning is one of the “killer apps” for AI.

[blog] A2A Extensions: Empowering Custom Agent Functionality. Be careful about adding too much complexity to your architecture, but I can see real use cases where these extensions make sense.

[blog] How our Edge Kubernetes Platform has Evolved. The Chick-fil-A folks were among the first to publicly talk about an at-scale Kubernetes-at-the-edge strategy. These updates make sense.
