%CPU Utilization Is A Lie

Stress tests on the Ryzen 9 5900X uncovered a big gap between **reported CPU utilization** and what the chip actually pushes. Around 50% on paper? Could mean close to full throttle in reality—thanks to sneaky behaviors from **SMT resource sharing** and **Turbo frequency scaling**. **Takeaway:** Raw.. read more

v1.34: DRA Consumable Capacity

Kubernetes 1.34 rolls in **consumable capacity** for Dynamic Resource Allocation (DRA). That means device plugins can now carve up resources—GPU memory, NIC bandwidth, etc.—into precise slices for Pods, ResourceClaims, and namespaces. The scheduler tracks it all, so nothing spills over... read more

Kubernetes Security: Best Practices to Protect Your Cluster

A new JetBrains IDE plugin throws Kubernetes security best practices straight into your deployment manifests—right where they belong. Think: checks for `runAsRoot`, privileged mode, `hostPath`, host ports, and sketchy sysctls. No hand-waving. It enforces stuff like: - Default `runAsNonRoot` - Drop .. read more

v1.34: Decoupled Taint Manager Is Now Stable

Kubernetes 1.34 graduates the taint eviction controller to GA. Now, the node lifecycle controller only applies taints, while a dedicated taint eviction controller manages pod eviction. First split in 1.29, now stable in 1.34... read more

Levelop is an interview preparation platform designed specifically for working software engineers (typically with 2–6 years of experience) who want to land jobs at top-tier tech companies.

Instead of just handing you endless lists of problems or passive videos to watch, Levelop uses an active, AI-guided approach to help you build the right mental models for tough technical interviews.

Here is how it works:

Two Specialized AI Mentors: * Orion (Coding AI): Instead of just telling you that your code is wrong, Orion steps in when your code fails, maps out where your knowledge gap is, and guides you to fix it yourself.

Aurora (System Design AI): Rather than making you watch a 40-minute video, Aurora has a live conversation with you to explain foundational system design concepts before you even start drawing on the canvas.

Sprint-Based Practice: You practice in structured loops called "sprints," which combine both Data Structures & Algorithms (DSA) and system design problems.

Actionable Feedback Loop: At the end of every sprint, you receive a detailed report. It scores your technical skills, gives you a behavioral profile, and ranks the exact weaknesses you need to focus on during your next sprint.

In short, it is a smart, interactive practice arena that focuses on actively fixing your specific weaknesses rather than just tracking how many hours you spend studying.
