I don’t know exactly what started my interest in Machine Learning and AI in general, but it’s a topic that I monitor for a long time now. The vast amount of possibilities sparkle my creativity and I love to experiment with it. Especially now services from Google and Azure made it so simple to build cool stuff with it. But I am also interested in how things work, that’s why I love to dive deeper into the subject. And when I gain some knowledge, it’s always fun to share that knowledge with others. This blog is about an introduction to the topic Machine Learning I gave at my work. It was a small presentation just covering some of the basics, but just enough to get started with it.

Linux containers
Since a while I am experimenting with docker, setting up my own docker development environment, experimenting with containerizing apps and trying out kubernetes. It’s easy to get started with docker which makes it so much fun to play around with it. But as I said before I also like to know how things work. That’s why I got interested in the fundamentals of containers and tried to build my own without the use of docker but only with the help of the linux kernel.
[Solved] Docker compose volume sharing issues
After years I am now migrating my development environment from vagrant to docker. I was always very pleased about the way vagrant worked but running a complete VM is a bit of overhead and beside that very resource consuming. It’s also less flexible, its more work to maintain for example. After reading about Linux Containers, how they work I got interested in Docker. Now I am working on my own docker development environment. While I am building such environment I experience sometimes difficulties, some easy to overcome and some harder. Today I had an issue with mounting volumes from my windows machine using docker compose. The problem was that the mount just didn’t work. So what is the problem?
