You don’t discover truth by sounding certain; you discover it by staying curious.

😈

Nice to see community stepping up #CDKTF: www.linkedin.com/posts/open-c...

I can't say I'm surprised, trying to monetise it more🫠

[Security Advisory] CVE-2025-14269: Credential caching in Headlamp with Helm enabled #devopsish groups.google.com/a/...

Kubernetes v1.35: Timbernetes (The World Tree Release)-

Just managed to catch up with latest @pragmaticengineer.com chat with @bcantrill.bsky.social and as expected it didn't disappoint! I loved the history of computers, cloud and other awesome stories. But this was an amazing thought: "Mindset needs to be not to create as much as possible, but rather...

🙈

That's probably one of the worst UX ever; so either an online event or an email where they sent you a QR code to follow a link 🤦🙃

"GitHub reversed its decision. The Microsoft-owned developer site has taken to X to admit it might have made a mistake by unilaterally announcing plans to charge people for using their own hardware to host runners." www.theregister.com/2025/12/17/g...

I'll say here what I left unstated in my @monktoberfest.com talk: AWS in particular is in a state of cultural collapse because they have done exactly this -- and their RTO mandate has served to decimate organizational trust.

Another awesome @monktoberfest.com talk by @bcantrill.bsky.social ! It's absolutely worth watching the whole talk, but I think the last bit is great way to wrap up, where Bryan talks about broken institutional and organisational trust using RTO example: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WF7J...

This feels like spot on what we've been observing in the industry lately 🫠

Need to use all those GPUs 🙃 🙈

I think purpose of Digital Services Act (DSA) is significant different than just introducing fees/restrictions on foreign services 😜🙈

OMFG 😱 Please don't ruin great browser @firefox.com !

Amazing talk by @katecrawford.bsky.social mapping empires and raising important topics on #AI! Good point about "Slopaganda" as cultural shift. With "feral capitalism" where we move fast, but have no breaks. She also talks about training on synthetic data leading to potential model collapse 📉

If running self-hosted runners in GitHub, there is a new fee coming: "On March 1, 2026, we are introducing a new $0.002 per-minute GitHub Actions cloud platform charge that will apply to self-hosted runner usage. Any usage subject to this charge will count toward the minutes included in your plan."

What a time to be alive 🙃🫠 "slop" is 2025 Word of the Year. The dictionary defines slop as "digital content of low quality that is produced usually in quantity by means of artificial intelligence." We should also get an emoji for this 😆

Some really tough choices 🙃

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites. The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

Certainly doesn't feel we're already there, but we're in the last %5 of the year 😬

Some great quotes by @kelseyhightower.com during the chat: "Just because there is a lot of choice, it doesn't mean you have to choose them all! As professionals having good discipline is probably more important than just curiosity." Also: "Tech is a team sport, you need empathy and listen to people"

Researchers have found two new vulnerabilities in React Server Components while attempting to exploit the patches last week. These are new issues, separate from the critical CVE last week. The patch for React2Shell remains effective for the Remote Code Execution exploit.

Good video capturing journey of our industry, and the following topics: from servers to containers and serverless, #DevOps vs. #Platform engineering, of course #Kubernetes, of course #AI too 😜, tool sprawl/complexity and what's next? Worth a watch and Kelsey sharing his wisdom and experience!

So are we getting 6 fingered characters and more content with lower quality? 🤔 🙃

Good to see more countries taking a stand: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

"Terraform CDK (CDKTF) will sunset and be archived on December 10, 2025." - never really seen it much in the wild. There's a migration path to HCL. Luckily project was under MPL-2.0 #OSS license so there is also an option to fork it as well, if anyone is an active user 😉 github.com/hashicorp/te...

If you use AWS without Vault, you should check it out to protect your crendentials! With recent #shaihulud attack more needed than ever! Thanks Marko for keeping this maintained!

I'm happy to share we have a fresh aws-vault release v7.8.0 including some cool features like custom endpoint URL, extended package support with NixOS, latest dep updates and others 🚀 Glad to see active #OSS community involvement and helping keeping the project active! github.com/ByteNess/aws...

Is new investment interest running out? 🤔🙃

Double #rainbow 🌈 across dark skies 😎

Cool, @hashicorp.com #Terraform actions are GA now 🚀 They introduce a way to trigger 3rd party tools via providers & they can be invoked before or after a resource's lifecycle events, such as create or update, or ad hoc via the CLI terraform apply -invoke command. www.hashicorp.com/en/blog/day-...

SOOCon26, change in dates and location 📣📣📣 We are excited to share our 2026 plans have changed. SOOCon26 will be on the road with events across the UK, coming back to London on 9 and 10 January 2027. Read more in our blogpost. openuk.uk/soocon26blog/ #openuk #opensourcesoftware #opensouce #soocon

Finally, you can commit and get discounts on DB usage! Thanks for nagging #AWS @quinnypig.com 😅

That's useful and I like there are more managed solutions offered as part of #AWS #EKS ecosystem. Still gives you flexibility to run those on your own if you want 😉 With a click you can get managed ArgoCD, ACK and KRO 🚀 #Kubernetes #Capabilities aws.amazon.com/about-aws/wh...

Think of the children! Some US states thinking about banning VPNs. 🙃 What's next, removing encryption? 🤦 www.schneier.com/blog/archive...

Good reminder to check your sensitive values across Git repos, codebase and logs! #security www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/securit...

Cool, you can now set global S3 policies on the #AWS Organizations level and enforce things like Block Public Access 🔒

Ahead of #Kubernetes 1.35 release aimed for mid-December🚀, a sneak peak of some new features: * Node declared features * In-place update of Pod resources * Pod certificates * User namespaces * Support for mounting OCI images as volumes * Numeric values for taints More: kubernetes.io/blog/2025/11...

Ha, I wish they'd realise it was a mistake to sunset it sooner 🙃 I mean it didn't get much love back then, so hopefully second time is a charm😜 aws.amazon.com/blogs/devops...
