Turning Kubernetes Last Access to Kubernetes Least Access Using KIEMPossible

KIEMPossible is a new open-source tool for Kubernetes entitlement cleanup. It maps out who has access to what - roles, entities, permissions - and shows how those are actually used across your clusters. Think of it as a permission microscope for AKS, EKS, GKE, and even the DIY K8s crowd. It breaks d.. read more

How to Evaluate LLMs Without Opening Your Wallet

A new mock-based framework lets QA and automation folks stress-test LLM outputs - no API calls, no surprise charges. It runs entirely local, usingpytest fixtures, structured test flows, and JSON schema checks to keep things tight. Test logic stays modular. Cross-validation’s baked in. And if you nee.. read more

I tested ChatGPT’s backend API using RENTGEN, and found more issues than expected

A closer look at OpenAI’s API uncovers some shaky ground: misconfiguredCORS headers, missingX-Frame-Options, noinput validation, and borkedHTTP status handling. Large uploads? Boom..crash!CORS preflightrequests? Straight-up denied. So much for smooth browser support... read more

Datacenters in space are a terrible, horrible, no good idea.

A former NASA engineer - now a Google Cloud AI infra alum - rips apart the idea of building GPU datacenters in orbit. His verdict: space is a terrible server rack. Power delivery? A nightmare. Heat dissipation? Worse in a vacuum. Radiation? Frying time. Even a 200kW solar rig (think ISS-sized) could.. read more

Writing a good CLAUDE.md

Anthropic’s Claude Code now deprioritizes parts of the root context file it sees as irrelevant. It still reads the file every session, but won’t waste cycles on side quests. The message to devs: stop stuffing it with catch-all instructions. Instead, use modular context that unfolds as needed - think.. read more

How when AWS was down, we were not

During the AWS us-east-1 meltdown - when DynamoDB, IAM, and other key services went dark - Authress kept the lights on. Their trick? A ruthless edge-first, multi-region setup built for failure. They didn’t hope DNS would save them. They wired in automated failover, rolled their own health checks, an.. read more

Did you know you can clap for someone’s content up to 50 times on Medium?

Well, you can.

And to protect you from carpal tunnel syndrome, I packaged that behavior into a little extension for Chrome.

It works like this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oN3soEz-5Z4

Open up your developer tools (right-click & choose inspect)

Then, navigate to the “console”:

And if you have a bunch of caca (that’s Spanish for 💩) in your Console you can click the little 🚫 icon to clear it:

Then:

copy the JavaScript code below
paste it into the Console area
press the Return key

and spread the clap!

(Scroll up to the top of this article before you press enter if you want to see it in action)

let clapButton = document.querySelector('button[data-testid="headerClapButton"]');
if (clapButton) {
const events = ['mousedown', 'mouseup', 'click'];

async function performClap() {
for (let i = 0; i < 50; i++) {
events.forEach(eventType => {
let event = new MouseEvent(eventType, {
'view': window,
'bubbles': true,
'cancelable': true
});
clapButton.dispatchEvent(event);
});
await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 10)); // Introducing a 10ms delay between claps
}
console.log("+50 Claps! Now, go join the SERP community!");
}

performClap();
} else {
console.log("Clap button not found!");
}

Want the extension?

I submitted the extension to the Chrome app store and it’s pending approval as of this writing…

But if you’re too excited to sit around when you could be clappin’ it up — you’re welcome to grab the bootleg here:
