Replacing Protobuf with Rust to go 5 times faster

PgDog ditched Protobuf for raw C-to-Rust integration inpg_query.rs. The new setup usesbindgenand recursive FFI wrappers - no serialization, no handoffs. The payoff? Query parsing is 5× faster. Deparsing hit 10×. Evenpgbenchsaw a 25% bump across major ops... read more

A Social Filesystem

The AT Protocol flips social apps inside out. Instead of locking posts and profiles inside platform silos, it treats them as files -JSON-based records, stored in your own decentralized, app-neutral repo. Everything you do - posts, follows, likes - gets logged as a signed, timestampedrecordin your pe.. read more

Building Production-Grade Micro services on Azure Kubernetes

A team running microservices onAzure Kubernetes Servicegave their setup a smart overhaul: critical state stayed managed inPostgreSQL, but compute and observability went DIY. The payoff? Major cost cuts. Interrupt-friendly jobs landed onspot instances, and they ditched pricey per-GB logging for a hom.. read more

What has Docker become?

Docker’s not just about containers anymore. It’s pivoting hard into AI infrastructure - with some teeth. The newModel Runner,GPU offloading, and fresh AI-native integrations with Google Cloud and Vercel show where it’s headed: less dev environment, more AI runtime engine. Under the hood, Docker drop.. read more  

k3d is an open-source utility designed to simplify running Kubernetes locally by wrapping K3s (Rancher’s lightweight Kubernetes distribution) inside Docker containers. Instead of creating virtual machines, k3d uses Docker as the execution layer, allowing developers to spin up multi-node Kubernetes clusters in seconds using minimal system resources.

k3d is especially popular for local development, CI pipelines, demos, and testing Kubernetes-native applications. It supports advanced setups such as multi-node clusters, load balancers, custom container registries, port mappings, and volume mounts, while remaining easy to tear down and recreate.

Because it uses K3s, k3d inherits a simplified control plane, bundled components, and reduced memory footprint compared to full Kubernetes distributions. This makes it ideal for developers who want a realistic Kubernetes environment without the overhead of tools like Minikube or full VM-based clusters.

k3d integrates cleanly with common Kubernetes workflows and tools such as kubectl, Helm, Skaffold, and Argo CD. It is frequently used to validate manifests, test Helm charts, and simulate production-like environments locally before deploying to cloud or on-prem clusters.
