Go 1.25 drops an experimental GC calledGreen Tea. It flips the script on object traversal - scanning memory pages instead of hopping from object to object. The payoff? Up to40% less GC CPU overheadon real workloads. Bonus: it taps intoAVX-512on newer x86 chips forvectorized scanning. Turns out strea..

A new stealth rootkit calledLinkProjust surfaced, taking aim at AWS-hosted Linux boxes. It blends two customeBPF programsfor deep concealment and remote activation via magic packets. The path in?CVE-2024-23897—an RCE on a public Jenkins server. From there, attackers slipped into Amazon EKS clusters,..

Learn how to manage secrets with the External Secrets Operator and plug it into Argo CD to power your Internal Developer Platform without manual management, enabling self-service secrets management and secure connections between workload clusters and the control plane. With a chain of trust between ..

Buildkite just added a major revamp of its Kubernetes Agent Stack. Highlights:REST-based config,leaner K8s objects, andhardened security defaults. It handlestens of thousands of concurrent jobswithout breaking a sweat. Shared environment vars cut down pod config noise. Error messages come with full ..

Airbnb runs distributed databases across multiple Kubernetes clusters - each tied to its own AWS Availability Zone. That setup isolates failures down to individual pods and keeps the whole system highly available. They built a custom Kubernetes operator and leaned on EBS volumes with PVCs to smooth ..

OneUptime ditched the cloud bill and rolled their own dual-site setup. Thinkbare metal, orchestrated withMicroK8s, booted byTinkerbell, patched together withCeph,Flux, andTerraform. Result?99.993% uptimeand$1.2M/year saved—76% cheaper than even well-optimized AWS. They run it all with just~14 engine..

Azure Developer CLI v1.20.0 leveled up Container Apps. Build and push are now split from deploy, so you can finally "build once, deploy everywhere" and mean it. It adds layered infrastructure support, lets you share anAzure Container Registryacross environments, and handles resource dependency seque..

Tools likeOPA Gatekeeper,Kyverno, and custom webhooks slam the brakes on sketchy workloadsbeforethey ever spin up. These controllers aren’t just gatekeepers - they’re enforcers. They check pod configs, block unverified images, and apply live, scoped policies like tenant-awarenetwork isolationandreso..

Spotify just gave its internal Fleet Management tooling a serious brain upgrade. They've wired inAI coding agentsthat now handle source-to-source transformations across repos - automatically. So far? Over 1,500 AI-generated PRs pushed. Not just lint fixes - these include heavy-duty migrations. They'..

Building LLM agents - essentially looping stateless models through tools - looks simple. Until it isn't. Peel back the layers, and you hit real architectural puzzles:context engineering, agent loops, sub-agent choreography, execution constraints...
