DeepSeek R1 running on H100s puts input-token costs near$0.003 per million—while output tokens still punch in north of$3. That’s a 1,000x spread. So if a job leans heavy on input—think code linting or parsing big docs—those margins stay fat, even with cautious compute. System shift:This lop-sided ..

Most LLMs still play autocomplete sidekick. But seasoned devs? They get better results when the model reads and rewrites actual source files. That gap—between how LLMs are designed to work and how prosactuallyuse them—messes with survey data and muddies the picture on real gains in code quality and..

AWS just dropped support for buildingserverless agentic AI systems. You’ll need the Strands Agents SDK, Bedrock AgentCore (preview), plus trusty tools like Lambda and ECS. What’s new? Agentic AI flips the script. Instead of dumb prompt-in, response-out bots, you getgoal-driven loopswith memory, too..

The Bitnami team has delayed the deletion of the Bitnami public catalog until September 29th. They will conduct a series of brownouts to prepare users for the upcoming changes, with the affected applications list being published on the day of each brownout. Users are advised to switch to Bitnami Sec..

A new ECS security mess—ECScape—lets low-privileged tasks on EC2 act like the ECS agent. That’s bad. Real bad. Why? Because it opens the door to stealing IAM credentials from other ECS tasks sharing the same host. Here’s the trick: The attacker hits the instance metadata service (IMDS) and fakes a ..

Go observability still feels like pulling teeth. Manual instrumentation? Tedious. Span coverage? Spotty. Telemetry volume? Totally out of hand. Even with OpenTelemetry gaining traction, Go lags behind Java and Python when it comes to auto-instrumentation and clean context propagation. Devs are hunt..

Antithesis and Jepsen want to kill hand-wavy "high availability" talk. Instead, they push for clearavailability models—majority,total,sticky, etc.—that spell out when an operationactuallyworks during failures. It's about precision, not platitudes. Why it matters:This reframes availability from a va..

Google droppedKFuzzTest, a lean fuzzing tool built to hit Linux kernel internals—way past just syscalls. It brings a clean API, docs, and sample targets to get fuzzing fast. Why it matters:KFuzzTest marks a shift. Kernel fuzzing’s no longer just about hammering syscalls—it’s going deeper into the g..

Kubernetes v1.34 pusheskubectlinto the future with a betauser preferencessystem. Drop a.kubercfile in place, and you can bake in default flags, toggle features likeinteractive deleteorServer-Side Apply, and wire up custom aliases—including pre- and post-args...

AI is breaking open source out of its old habits. Compute-heavy models now demand GPU-first stacks, leaner infrastructure, and fresh rules for how we build and scale. Jonathan Bryce points out: scalability and reliability still matter—but AI’s deployment needs throw the old architecture playbook ou..
