ServerlessHorrorsspins spine-tingling yarns of five- or six-figure bills lurking behind so-called "free tiers." Those sneaky fees laugh in the face of your budget. Watch out for bandwidth traps, sneaky egress costs, and AI code that can't stop itself.... read more

GitHub Actionsgives you the keys to the car. Use any executable as your shell, not just the usual suspects. Go wild, but hey, keep an eye on those security gremlins lurking in the shadows... read more
TLS isn’t safe from quantum—lattices step in. ML-KEM secures encryption, ML-DSA signs it tight. Key exchange gets bigger, not slower. Vectors, matrices, and modular math drive post-quantum security. Cloudflare’s already using it. Now it’s your turn to understand how... read more
AI's not just another wrench in the toolbox—it's your new coworker, reshaping Industrial DevOps and revolutionizing complex cyber-physical systems. AI revs up CI/CD pipelines and collaborates with humans like a hyper-disciplined lab partner. It demands careful handling, though. Responsible use is cr.. read more
