WTF is ... - AI-Native SAST?

AI-native SAST is replacing the “LLM as magic scanner” myth. Instead, the smart play is combining language models with real static analysis. That’s how teams are catching the gnarlier stuff - like business logic bugs - that usually slip through. The trick?Use static analysis to grab clean, relevant .. read more

Inside Cloudflare's Worst Outage Since 2019: How a Single Config File Broke the Internet

Cloudflare Cloudflare Workers

A database permissions change led to a Cloudflare outage by creating an oversized feature file, causing network failures initially mistaken for a DDoS attack.

Inside Cloudflare's Worst Outage Since 2019: How a Single Config File Broke the Internet
Slurm Workload Manager is an open-source, fault-tolerant, and highly scalable cluster management and scheduling system widely used in high-performance computing (HPC). Designed to operate without kernel modifications, Slurm coordinates thousands of compute nodes by allocating resources, launching and monitoring jobs, and managing contention through its flexible scheduling queue.

At its core, Slurm uses a centralized controller (slurmctld) to track cluster state and assign work, while lightweight daemons (slurmd) on each node execute tasks and communicate hierarchically for fault tolerance. Optional components like slurmdbd and slurmrestd extend Slurm with accounting and REST APIs. A rich set of commands—such as srun, squeue, scancel, and sinfo—gives users and administrators full visibility and control.

Slurm’s modular plugin architecture supports nearly every aspect of cluster operation, including authentication, MPI integration, container runtimes, resource limits, energy accounting, topology-aware scheduling, preemption, and GPU management via Generic Resources (GRES). Nodes are organized into partitions, enabling sophisticated policies for job size, priority, fairness, oversubscription, reservation, and resource exclusivity.

Widely adopted across academia, research labs, and enterprise HPC environments, Slurm serves as the backbone for many of the world’s top supercomputers, offering a battle-tested, flexible, and highly configurable framework for large-scale distributed computing.
