With AI coding tools like Antigravity and Claude Code, I can build a working web app in record time. But deploying it? That’s where I’d historically lose the rest of the afternoon to Dockerfiles, IAM bindings, and YAML. So I’d take the shortcut most developers take: I just wouldn’t do it. The app would stay […]

We’ve rolled out a significant update to Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) that solves one of the most annoying problems in cloud infrastructure: cold start latency. GKE now has up to 4x faster node startup times compared to previous versions for qualifying nodes, allowing customers to provision quickly and efficiently. This isn’t a setting you have
With faster node startup for GKE, say goodbye to cold-start latency Read More »
Recorded on the floor of HumanX, Ryan is joined by AMD CTO Mark Papermaster to discuss AMD’s silicon strategy for AI borne of their long history of heterogeneous CPU/GPU computing, how chipmakers are dealing the wide range of AI workloads from training to inference, and the paradox of agents both eating up all the compute

The agricultural and crop protection supply chain is one of the most intricate networks in the world. It takes up to two years to turn active ingredients into the final products farmers need, and a single change in weather or regulations can disrupt everything. Planners at BASF Agricultural Solutions navigate this reality daily across 180
Ingress-NGINX had been handling our traffic routing since moving to Kubernetes, but when it was announced it would be retired, we were forced to consider a new traffic routing solution.

AI coding agents are rapidly becoming ubiquitous across the software industry, fundamentally changing how developers write, test, and debug daily code. While these tools excel at localized, self-contained tasks, applying them to massive, systemic codebase migrations requires an entirely new approach. Google is already addressing this challenge by incorporating AI into many migration workflows: x86
