Software Engineers still own the cloud-native job boards in 2025 - nearly47%of all Kubernetes-tagged listings. DevOps holds onto second. But Platform Engineers just leapfrogged SREs, which have slid 30% since 2023...

Istio finally bringsinternal HTTPS routingwithSNI-based traffic rules. Services in the mesh can now talk over port 443—TLS fully intact. Just like in prod. TLS terminates at the ingress gateway. Routing pivots on SNI, not headers. Which makes this much closer to real-world mTLS flows. What’s the pla..

The newHeadlamp Karpenter Pluginwires real-time autoscaling insight straight into the Headlamp UI. It showsKarpenterresources, live metrics, scaling moves—no kubectl spelunking required. NodePoolsandNodeClaimsget mapped to core Kubernetes objects. You can tweak configs in the UI, get validation on t..

A dev-built Kubernetes CLI framework reshapeskubectlfor how teams actually work. Commands get grouped by role - dev, SRE, sec, admin - instead of by resource. It bakes in defaults forKyvernopolicies, encourages muscle-memory workflows, and wires up real-time troubleshooting to shrink downtime in pro..

Agentic AI flips the old model. Instead of stateless, event-by-event workloads, we getstateful, self-steering systemsthat observe, reason, plan, and act - on loop. Kubernetes steps up as the OS for this next phase. Boosted by platform engineering, it brings the right mix:ephemeral compute, persisten..

A production network got hammered by too many Auth0 token requests. The source? EKS workloads tucked behind a shared NAT Gateway. No easy trail. Engineers stitched it together usingVPC Flow Logs,pod-to-node maps, and some sharpIstio ServiceEntry logs. Even with Kubernetes CNI doing its NAT-obscuring..

A fresh guide gives old Python friends a second look—turns out, tools like **itertools.groupby**, **zip**, **bisect**, and **heapq** aren’t just standard; they’re slick solutions to real problems. Think run-length encoding, matrix transposes, or fast, sorted inserts without bringing in another depen..

A two-container setup using **acme.sh** gets Let's Encrypt certs running on a Synology NAS—thanks, Docker. No built-in Certbot support? No problem. Cloudflare DNS API token handles auth. Scheduled tasks handle renewal...

Modern apps burst with features most people never touch. Users stick to their favorite 20%. The rest? Frustration, bloat, ignored edge cases. Tools like **VS Code**, **Slack**, and **Notion** nail it by staying lean at the core and letting users stack what they need. Extensions, plug-ins, integrati..

Modern apps don’t just check passwords—they rely on **API tokens**, **OAuth**, and **Single Sign-On (SSO)** to know who’s knocking before they open the door...
