1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it).

But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

It's hard to overstate just how off the charts warm the Pacific is right now. The swath of the basin from California to Japan (a HUGE area) from 25N to 60N is ~3F (1.6C) above normal. To put it into math terms that is 6 Sigma/ standard deviations above the mean. More… 1/

This is *exactly* why the @cncf.io was created. A safe space for community and companies to come together with longitudinal guarantees of stability and fair ground rules.

This is hard to believe, but is happening:

the CVE program to end later today?

CVE has been the de facto way to track software vulnerabilities - from disclosure to fixing - globally.

Feels like everyone will be worse off - and I wonder what will replace this, if anything will

Studio Ghibli films are such masterpieces that speak to empathy, connection, nature, and humanity. It's beyond disgusting seeing that art style completely bastardized by soulless generative AI and used to support fascist trolls. It's genuinely contradictory to everything Miyazaki stands for.

Within software architecture, few people shaped the industry as much as @gradybooch.bsky.social. Safe to say he's a true legend.

Hello, Bluesky users!

I curate and maintain list of resources on testing distributed systems. You might have seen it before. It's a good one, if I may say so myself.

At LinkedIn, we run stateful systems on bare metal servers as a first class citizen on Kubernetes. That's why we built our own stateful workload operator.

I created a starter pack for Cloud Native projects. While we're all mostly here to follow people, I'd like to encourage all the @cncf.bsky.social projects (and related) to set up BSky accounts. Let me know any I'm missing and I'll add them to the starter pack!

Brazil almost had the world's first official licensed Mac, but the Brasilian government balked. Then the government decided to keep going anyways, and the devs had to make a "Mac" with some of the hardware and none of the software. This is the story of the Unitron Mac 512.
