Cilium’s Day 2 playbook covers the real work: dialing inL7 policy controls, tuningHubble observability, and wringing performance fromBPF. It's how you keep big Kubernetes clusters sane. The focus?Multi-tenant isolation,node-to-node encryption, and scaling cleanly withexternal etcdso the network does.. read more  

Next.js brings advanced capabilities to developers out-of-the-box, but scaling it in your own environment can be challenging due to uneven load distribution and high latency. Watt addresses these issues by leveragingSO_REUSEPORTin the Linux kernel, resulting in significantly improved performance met.. read more  

In-Place Pod Resizehits GA in Kubernetes 1.35. You can now tweak CPU and memory on live pods without restarts. This is finally production-ready! What’s new since beta? It now handlesmemory limit decreases, doesprioritized resizes, and gives you betterobservabilitywith fresh Kubelet metrics and Pod e.. read more  

Halodoc cut EC2 costs and shaved latency by leaning into two Kubernetes tricks: In-place pod resizing(v1.33) lets them dial pod resources up or down on the fly, especially handy during off-peak hours. Zone-aware routingviatopology-aware hintskeeps inter-service traffic close to home (same AZ), skipp.. read more  

etcd v3.5.26 patches a nasty upgrade bug. It now syncsv3storefromv2storeto stop zombie nodes from corrupting clusters during the jump to v3.6. The core issue: Older versions let stale store states bring removed members back from the dead... read more  

Chinese AI milestones in 2025: Big models from DeepSeek and others, AGI discussions at Alibaba, US-China chip war swings, Beijing's AI Action plan, and more. DeepSeek led the way with an open-source model, setting off a wave of Chinese companies going open-source. China's push for AGI and involvemen.. read more  

DeepSeek-OCRflips the OCR script. Instead of feeding full image tokens to the decoder, it leans on an encoder to compress them up front, trimming down input size and GPU strain in one move. That context diet? It opens the door for way bigger windows in LLMs. Why it matters:Shoving compression earlie.. read more

AI coding agents are eating the lunch of low-complexity SaaS. Teams with a bit of dev muscle are skipping subscription logins and spinning up dashboards, pipelines, even decks, using Claude, Gemini, whoever’s fastest that day. Build vs. buy? Tilting back toward build. The kicker: build now takes min.. read more  

Google jammed a full no-code AI workshop into Gemini. The browser now bakes inOpal, a drag-and-drop app builder with a shiny newvisual editor. You can chain prompts, preview apps, and feed it text, voice, or images, without touching code. They also dropped theGemini 3 Flash model, built for dual rea.. read more
