Hackaday ☛ Kubernetes Cluster Goes Mobile In Pet Carrier
There’s been a bit of a virtualization revolution going on for the last decade or so, where tools like Docker and LXC have made it possible to quickly deploy server applications without worrying much about dependency issues. Of course as these tools got adopted we needed more tools to scale them easily. Enter Kubernetes, a container orchestration platform that normally herds fleets of microservices in sprawling cloud architectures, but it turns out it’s perfectly happy running on a tiny computer stuffed in a cat carrier.

Pen Test Partners ☛ Common Kubernetes misconfigurations and how to avoid them
Kubernetes has changed the way we deploy and scale workloads. It’s powerful, flexible, and very good at hiding a lot of complexity. It is also very good at hiding security problems until someone starts poking at it. Attackers usually take the path of least resistance.

Rodrigo Siqueira: XDC 2025
It has been a long time since I published any update in this space. Since this was a year of colossal changes for me, maybe it is also time for me to make something different with this blog and publish something just for a change — why not start talking about XDC 2025?
This year, I attended XDC 2025 in Vienna as an Igalia developer. I was thrilled to see some faces from people I worked with in the past and people I’m working with now. I had a chance to hang out with some folks I worked with at AMD (Harry, Alex, Leo, Christian, Shashank, and Pierre), many Igalians (Žan, Job, Ricardo, Paulo, Tvrtko, and many others), and finally some developers from Valve. In particular, I met Tímur in person for the first time, even though we have been talking for months about GPU recovery. Speaking of GPU recovery, we held a workshop on this topic together.
