I’ve been having some fun with MCP recently, and this felt like a good excuse to revive an old project of mine! Can you use Claude, MCP, Kubernetes & Caps Lock LEDs to send SOS messages? 👀 nonmonotonic.dev/posts/halp-mcp/

We’ve been systematically evaluating the scalability of our fleet’s control planes, and the recent work on storage layer scalability in the Kubernetes community is going to prove pivotal as we scale further! Check out what we’ve been upto for the past couple of weeks ♥️

Glad to have @madhavjivrajani.bsky.social join us at LinkedIn compute team this summer. I’m constantly impressed by the depth of his kube-apiserver expertise.

Shared logs are an extremely powerful abstraction and the work on these systems that has come out of our group at UIUC has been nothing short of elegant and practical. This talk should give an excellent overview of that vision! ♥️

Very impressive and thorough look at the Go runtime internals.

Found this tonight and it's a really solid read on the Go runtime. Definitely a long post but it's got a lot of useful info in it. Learned a lot about things that I haven't really dug into before from it. nghiant3223.github.io/2025/04/15/g...

I needed to write about something that’s giving me hope, so I wrote about Independent Bookstore Day which is this Saturday. lithub.com/something-go...

Happy Independent Bookstore Day! Read Maris's piece, then go show your local indie bookstore some love. They're so much more than places to get books--they are places to engage with ideas and others in your community. Staffed by actual humans to help you find the books you didn't know you needed!

Hiya! The most useful thing to check out would be this: cs.brown.edu/~sk/Publicat...

Yesterday I met Yawan in Bungamati, Nepal — he’s 18, visually impaired, and wants to learn to code to build tools for others like him. What are the best dev resources for the visually impaired? Asking for a friend, and this time for real!

ICYMI, there’s been significant scalability and reliability improvements in the K8s storage layer, join us for a deep dive into Defusing The K8s API Performance Minefield next week #KubeCon! sched.co/1tx9P

I am looking to meet women interested in having no-BS conversations around personal finance, tech and sustainability! #womenInTech #bayarea #sanfranciso

Today is the last day to register for CIDR 2025 in Amsterdam! The best conference in systems with an awesome lineup this year! cidrdb.org/cidr2025/pro...

Great opportunity to join the Kubernetes release team and learn what it takes to ship Kubernetes!

Always amazes me that you can just reach out to people you admire and look up to and they respond back with the same enthusiasm and encouragement, super willing to help out. Gotta love the systems community 🥰

Fun NULL BITMAP today talking associativity. A topic I spend a lot of time thinking about. buttondown.com/jaffray/arch...

Excellent post-mortem by the #OpenAI team on the recent outage! We’ve had some work gone in recently to prevent control plane overwhelm in Kubernetes, super curious about what versions of K8s they’re on and if these features could have helped 👀 status.openai.com/incidents/ct...

#Kubernetes v1.32 is released! Thank you 1.32 release team led by Frederico Muñoz and thank you release managers and thank you contributors — so much hard work goes into each release kubernetes.io/blog/2024/12...

The energy here at #KubeConIndia is unlike anything I've ever seen at a KubeCon. People are excited and thirsty to learn. So glad I got to experience the first KubeCon in India!

The PaPoC workshop is once again accepting submissions on distributed consistency. Deadline 15 January papoc-workshop.github.io/2025/cfp.html

We have a strong background in formal methods and system reliability. So we’ve been surgically applying these techniques to scale our correctness efforts at Feldera. We’ve found them quite effective at catching bugs early during development, long before they can manifest in production.

@madhavjivrajani.bsky.social I really liked this presentation of yours www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdO_... The most enjoyable part was how smoothly you combined philosophy, physics, psychology and computer sciences.

Thank you so much! That’s definitely one of my favourite talks, super glad you enjoyed it! 💕

Kinda bummed I’m going to miss the first #KubeCon happening in India but also super excited to see all the wonderful things that come out of it ♥️ Make someone feel included if you’re a veteran and as a friendly reminder, remember the Pac-Man rule: www.ericholscher.com/blog/2017/au...

Today @kubernetes.io discovered slack has a 200,000 user limit on channels by way of the #kubernetes-users in slack.k8s.io 🙃

We have a thriving systems community in Bangalore which hosts deeply technical and insightful talks, and in that vein, there’s an excellent talk by @alexgarcia.xyz on sqlite-vec going on right now! discord.gg/kdq68txQeQ

thanks for getting the ball rolling on that one @madhavjivrajani.bsky.social in github.com/kubernetes/k... way back in 2022!

This was a very interesting piece of work over a couple of years that we drove in the community and it makes me so happy to see the impact it’s had ♥️🎉

I'm so excited to share my latest paper called DELIFT along with Krishnateja Killamsetty, Lucian Popa, and Marina Danilevksy at IBM Research 🎉 We tackle expensive fine-tuning by selecting a small subset of informative data that targets a model's weaknesses.

We say goodbye to KubeCon Co-Chair @thenikhita.bsky.social. Thank you for all your work!

With that lab it's going to be closer to an every day experience than not. :) They consistently produce top-tier work!

Best part of #KubeCon, thank you and congratulations to all the maintainers! ♥️🎉

So fitting that @thock.in gets the first CNCF Lifetime achievement award at #KubeCon 🎉♥️ Thank you for everything you do, especially behind the scenes and beyond the technical aspects of the project 🙏

I loved reading this paper - the key insight (ordering matters at read time, not write time) feels so obvious in hindsight, but I’d have never thought of it in a million years; really clever stuff

Super excited to catch up with old friends and make new ones next week at #KubeCon ♥️🥳 Who’s going to be there? Let’s chat about all things Kubernetes, infra for AI and other emerging workloads and here’s a new one for me… Cloud Native Vector Databases!

It’s not everyday that your advisors and lab-mates win a Best Paper Award at #SOSP! I love that I get to work with them and more such brilliant folks on a daily basis ♥️ Check out the paper here: LazyLog: A New Shared Log Abstraction for Low-Latency Applications dassl-uiuc.github.io/pdfs/papers/...
