Been dealing with Copy Fail and Dirty Frag vulnerabilities on Linux? My colleague Tony Green published some open source modules to help you detect what is impacted in your #Puppet estate and mitigate! dev.to/puppet/handl...

My Puppetlabs Modules Roundup for April is now live with updates to 8 puppetlabs modules: - cd4peadm - comply - complyadm - lvm - pe_event_forwarding - peadm - sce_linux - splunk_hec Read about what changed in the April roundup: dev.to/puppet/puppe... #Puppet #DevOps #PuppetForge

“Migrations fail when visibility is stale, drift grows, and cutovers go manual.” Tony Green shares practical Puppet migration workflows built from real-world experience. If you’re planning a Puppet migration, this is well worth a read: www.puppet.com/blog/puppet-... #Puppet #DevOps #Automation

If you’re curious (or skeptical 👀) about AI in ops, join me and my colleague Robin Tatam as we talk about using AI in the infrastructure as code world without adding risk, noise, or another thing to babysit. 👉 www.puppet.com/resources/ev... #Puppet #InfrastructureAsCode #AIOps

Puppet Continuous Delivery 5.15.0 is out 🚀 Stability, security hardening, plus fixes for Impact Analysis, GitLab commit status reporting, and Amazon Linux 2023 support, AND MORE! (Gotta have the 'and more'!) The Serious Release notes: help.puppet.com/cdpe/current... #Puppet #DevOps #IaC

the comments in this video killed me dead, rip me 💀

as someone who once deleted all of prod the old-fashioned way, it’s funny to giggle at AI doing this but honestly a company where that can happen has problems deeper than AI

I was just on Reddit and there was a very obvious grammar mistake in the title of the post. My reaction: "oh wow, a human!" I immediately went in to read more. It's amazing to me that we've hit a point with AI-generated spam that the sheer presence of human error is enough to get my attention.

How you can bring your Copilot and Puppet development together to build more of your infrastructure as code in an agent-assisted flow? I put together a tutorial showing my experience generating a Puppet module using GitHub Copilot. www.puppet.com/blog/ai-assi... #Puppet #AI #Copilot #AIOps

This isolation is something I have been wondering about, as someone who works in tech community spaces. When the outreach to other humans is gone, when we don't chat on the forums/channels/groups and social media is for one-way algorithm-pleasing broadcasting... How do we keep digital community?

Puppet Core 8.18.0 is released! - macOS 15 support (x86_64 + ARM) - Security updates addressing multiple CVEs across core dependencies Release notes: help.puppet.com/core/current... #Puppet #DevOps #InfrastructureAsCode

Was having a chat yesterday on "could we build an agent to do this?" I asked: - Is it bad if the data is wrong or missing? - Do you need to run it on a scheduled basis? - Is the thing you are doing a repeatable, known, structured problem? The answers: "Yes. Yes. Yes." Automate. Let me explain...

March 2026 brought 4 Puppetlabs module releases in the Forge catalog. New Puppet Enterprise compatibility updates, new supported platforms, and operational hardening and troubleshooting improvements. See what changed this month! 👇 dev.to/puppet/puppe... #Puppet #InfrastructureAsCode

The Perforce State of DevOps Report webinar is now on YouTube! Have a listen as Nico Krüger, Robin Tatam, and I chat about the findings in the report and where teams should focus first before trying to get AI to solve all their problems. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6J-4... #DevOps #AI

This little guy on my Vercel preview site made my day! 😁

Puppet Enterprise versions prior to 2025.9, malformed task or plan metadata issues were logged and the affected task/plan was ignored. In 2025.9, this malformed data caused tasks/plans listing to fail to load. PE 2025.10 resolves this issue. 👉 READ MORE: help.puppet.com/pe/current/t... #Puppet

The girls wanted to try NHL 24 with me and we found a tournament option where you could pick the women's Team Canada and they lit up. They're naming out all the players they get to be and have huge smiles as they play. So glad women's hockey is in these games now!

AI adoption in DevOps is accelerating, but trust, accuracy, and real-world usability still matter. I sat down with Jessica Gao to unpack how AI is being used in infra and ops teams today, and what’s changed over the last 12–18 months. www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBxk... #Puppet #AI #MCP #DevOps

Perforce Puppet has posted a 90-day notice that Puppet Agent support for the some operating system platforms are reaching End of Life (EOL). Support for these platforms will be discontinued in upcoming Puppet releases: dev.to/puppet/puppe...

"Putting your head in the sand and saying “AI BAD” won’t get us to where we need to be. We need guardrails on these tools. We need smart people advocating for the responsible implementation of these tools. We need ethics to matter in this space. We need regulations." jasonstcyr.com/2026/03/11/i...

‘Hey’ came before ‘hi,’ and ‘hi' came before ‘hello.’ ‘Hi’ is most likely a variant of ‘hey.’ ‘Hello’ is not related to either. Goodbye.

Tiny bit of DevOps trivia on the blog today. Not sure how I've missed this, but a colleague pointed out how you can edit your Azure DevOps wiki pages locally, and it seemed too helpful not to share: blog.jermdavis.dev/posts/2026/d...

Just finished watching Sinners and it was phenomenal. All the good things said were right!

Invest in your process maturity or you won't get the best value out of your AI initiatives. At least, that's what I took out of the 2026 State of DevOps report! Join Robin, Nico and I for our chat about the report! 👉👉 www.puppet.com/resources/ev... #DevOps #StateOfDevOps #AI

Frustrating night. Tests timing out. APIs not returning values. Infinite handler loops throwing console errors. Usually I can constrain the agentic mess with tight review, but no luck for me tonight. Nice to be problem solving and debugging, though! Wish I could get these green!

As most of the COVID -safe/-aware community can tell you, try wearing a mask everywhere & declining indoor eating invitations and then see how many friends you have left.

This is really profound. Communities have to become self-regulating healthy groups, and in a technical context where healthy communities aren't encouraged, you really need to be a counter-culture force to do this. People do it, but it would be a lot easier if we valued it a lot more

congratulations Ed, you successfully nerdsniped me into trying to benchmark this question! how well does Claude actually do on various languages? vivsha.ws/blog/stress-... (benchmark code & raw results on GitHub: github.com/vivshaw/llml...)

Security Compliance Enforcement (SCE) for Windows now supports the latest versions of the pwshlib dependency, including a fix for DSC reporting issues! 💾 Download from the Forge: forge.puppet.com/modules/pupp... 📖 Latest release notes: help.puppet.com/sce/current/... #Puppet #DevOps #Windows #DSC

thinking about how many more people are using the CLI, are using tmux, are interested in API access to services, are building their own little tools and dashboards and integrations. kind of a failure on the part of programming that it took AI to make this stuff accessible to people.

This is a great thread on changes we are seeing in people suddenly wanting to do more challenging and technical work who previously have not. I see this everywhere in my field and social circles. I do it myself. I'm trying things I never would have tried before, because I *think* I can now.

I went through the State of #DevOps report and I have... thoughts. I still need to crystallize some of my opinions on what I saw in this report, but I was interested in the heavy correlation between "mature DevOps" and "AI successful". I'm not surprised. (1/x) www.perforce.com/resources/st...

I'D JUST LIKE TO INTERJECT FOR A MOMENT. WHAT YOU'RE REFERRING TO AS LINUX IS IN FACT GNU/LINUX, OR AS I'VE RECENTLY TAKEN TO CALLING IT, GNU PLUS LINUX. LINUX IS NOT AN OPERATING SYSTEM UNTO ITSELF, BUT RATHER ANOTHER FREE COMPONENT OF A FULLY FUNCTIONING GNU SYSTEM

New CVE-2026-0969 in MDX Remote popped up. I hadn't realized it was an issue, npm audit and dependency-bot hadn't reported anything, but Vercel suddenly stopped letting me deploy last night. Easy enough fix to update to 6.0.0! discuss.hashicorp.com/t/hcsec-2026...

#Puppet Enterprise Advanced has new #MCP tools available with the latest releases, but how do you get them to work with your IDE? In my latest video, I share learning how to use VS Code with #Copilot to generate a new Puppet module (and some failures along the way). www.youtube.com/watch?v=F25N...

What's so amazing about Jim Henson as a puppeteer is that he could literally be explaining that Kermit is made out of felt and ping pong balls and yet Kermit still feels alive the whole time he's doing it
