When managing infrastructure with Terraform, enforcing tagging standards, instance type restrictions, preventing public exposure, enforcing regions, and other best practices are essential with Open Policy Agent (OPA). OPA evaluates Terraform plans before apply to ensure compliance with organization'.. read more  

Linus Torvalds argues that Linux kernel guidelines should treat AI like any other development tool, not as a special case, saying documentation cannot solve bad submissions. At the same time, he openly acknowledges using an AI coding tool in a personal project, signaling pragmatic acceptance of AI-assisted development outside core kernel policy.

The analysis of Linux kernel bugs shows that some bugs remain undiscovered for over 20 years, with an average lifespan of 2.1 years. The study examined 125,183 bug-fix pairs and found that certain subsystems have longer bug lifetimes. A tool developed for the research identified 92% of historical bugs, and findings indicate that bug discovery has improved over time.

A long AWS smackdown in US-EAST-1 traced back to a ticking time bomb inDynamoDB’s automated DNS system. The flaw torpedoed EC2 networking, hobbled Lambda and Fargate, and dragged down theNetwork Load Balancer. Endpoints ghosted. Configs stalled. Everything snowballed. AWS says they’ll upgrade EC2 th.. read more  

AWS just made a big dent in NAT gateway bills. You can now runLambda in VPCs with IPv6 and an egress-only Internet gateway- no more always-on NAT draining your wallet. Keep the private subnets locked down. Still get outbound Internet access. IPv6 handles the traffic, slicing out the NAT middleman... read more  

Monday.com ditched ArgoCD's built-in manifest diffing. Instead, they wired up a custom CI renderer that pre-renders Helm charts using real cluster data. Then it compares the desired states across Git branches. The kicker: diffs go to a UI with custom grouping support. Reviews get easier. New devs ge.. read more  

TravelEase Inc., a growing travel company, significantly improved customer inquiries handling by replacing a basic mailto: link with a modular, serverless, cloud-native system managed with Terraform. This new system automated message validation, processing, storage, and notifications using Lambda fu.. read more  

A former NASA engineer - now a Google Cloud AI infra alum - rips apart the idea of building GPU datacenters in orbit. His verdict: space is a terrible server rack. Power delivery? A nightmare. Heat dissipation? Worse in a vacuum. Radiation? Frying time. Even a 200kW solar rig (think ISS-sized) could.. read more  

In 2025, Internet growth was driven less by humans and more by AI, with AI crawling and user-triggered access surging while post-quantum encryption secured over half of human web traffic. Security risks intensified as record-breaking DDoS attacks topped 30 Tbps and government-imposed shutdowns accounted for nearly half of major global outages.

Airbnb just rewired Mussel, its key-value store, with a smarter, layered QoS system. Out go the rigid QPS caps. In comeresource-aware rate control,criticality-based load shedding, andreal-time hot-key mitigation. Dispatchers now speak the language of backend cost -rows, bytes, latency - not just raw.. read more
