As an industry, we like to shout a lot about experiments when we kick them off, all confident swagger that this time our superior intellects have landed from first principles on the correct reimagining of this or that piece of ...
Changed Block Tracking (CBT) support for CSI drivers shipped as Alpha in September 2025. With the March 2026 v1.0.0 release of the external-snapshot-metadata project, the feature moved to Beta. If you aren't yet familiar with changed block tracking for storage ...
Memory QoS has graduated to Beta in Kubernetes v1.37 and is now enabled by default. On Linux nodes running cgroup v2, the feature uses the memory controller to give the kernel better guidance on how to treat container memory. It ...
A handful of people I follow and know about have announced their recent departure. Not from a job (although plenty of that going around), but from social media, AI usage, or in more extreme cases the Internet entirely. In Goodbye, ...

Yesterday David Sacks wrote a tweet and within a few minutes people did, what they usually do, and they asked Pangram if it was AI. And Pangram said it’s entirely AI generated. To which David replied that these AI detectors ...

I'm excited to announce that native histogram support for Kubernetes metrics is graduating to Beta and is enabled by default in Kubernetes v1.37!
