Stop Forwarding Errors, Start Designing Them

A fresh take on Rust error handling just dropped - and it's calling out the usual suspects. Forget blindly forwarding errors withanyhowor smearing context around withProvider. This approach pushes forstructured, intent-driven error types- errors that say what to do next (like "retry this") instead o.. read more

Distinguishing yourself early in your career as a developer

A seasoned dev maps the job market into three tiers:local/public companies,VC-backed/startups, andBig Tech/finance. Each step up brings more money, more competition, and a steeper climb. Category 3(Big Tech/finance): Highest salaries. Broadest interview access. Brutal prep required. Category 2(start.. read more

The Code Review That Cost $2 Million, CodeGood

New data shows only15% of code review comments catch real bugs. The rest? Nitpicks on style, naming, or formatting - stuff linters and AI were made to handle. Human reviews burn through$3.6M a yearin larger orgs and still miss the tough stuff: threading issues, system integration bugs, rare edge cas.. read more

BadPods Series: Everything Allowed on AWS EKS

A security researcher ran a full-blown container escape on EKS usingBadPods- a tool that spins up dangerously overprivileged pods. The pod broke out of its container, poked around the host node, moved laterally, and swiped AWS IAM creds. All of it slipped past EKS’s defaultPod Security Admission (PS.. read more

From Deterministic to Agentic: Creating Durable AI Workflows with Dapr

Dapr droppedDurable Agents- a mashup of classic workflows and LLM-driven agents that can actually get things done and survive rough edges. They track reasoning steps, tool calls, and chat states like a champ. If things crash, no problem: Dapr Workflows and Diagrid Catalyst bring it all back... read more

Kubernetes GPU Management Just Got a Major Upgrade

Kubernetes 1.34 droppedDynamic Resource Allocation (DRA)- think persistent volumes, but for GPUs and custom hardware. Vendors can now plug in drivers and schedulers for their devices, and workloads can pick exactly what they need. Coming in 1.35: a newworkload abstractionthat speaks the language of .. read more

v1.35: New level of efficiency with in-place Pod restart

Kubernetes 1.35, as you may know, introducedin-place Pod restarts(alpha). It's a real reset: all containers, init and sidecars included - without killing the Pod or kicking off a reschedule. Think restart without the cloud drama. Big win for workloads with heavy inter-container dependencies or massi.. read more

1.35: Enhanced Debugging with Versioned z-pages APIs

Kubernetes 1.35 makes a quiet-but-crucial upgrade: z-pages debugging endpoints now returnstructured, machine-readable JSON. That means tools- not just tired humans - can parse control plane state directly. The responses areversioned, backward-compatible, and tucked behind feature flags for now... read more  

GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) is a deep learning model developed by OpenAI that has been pre-trained on massive amounts of text data using unsupervised learning techniques. GPT is designed to generate human-like text in response to prompts, and it is capable of performing a variety of natural language processing tasks, including language translation, summarization, and question-answering. The model is based on the transformer architecture, which allows it to handle long-range dependencies and generate coherent, fluent text. GPT has been used in a wide range of applications, including chatbots, language translation, and content generation.

GPT is a family of language models that have been trained on large amounts of text data using a technique called unsupervised learning. The model is pre-trained on a diverse range of text sources, including books, articles, and web pages, which allows it to capture a broad range of language patterns and styles. Once trained, GPT can be fine-tuned on specific tasks, such as language translation or question-answering, by providing it with task-specific data.

One of the key features of GPT is its ability to generate coherent and fluent text that is indistinguishable from human-generated text. This is achieved by training the model to predict the next word in a sentence given the previous words. GPT also uses a technique called attention, which allows it to focus on relevant parts of the input text when generating a response.

GPT has become increasingly popular in recent years, particularly in the field of natural language processing. The model has been used in a wide range of applications, including chatbots, content generation, and language translation. GPT has also been used to create AI-generated stories, poetry, and even music.
