Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

Hugging Face has released AI Sheets, an open-source application designed to let users build, transform, and enrich datasets using AI models through a spreadsheet-like interface. The tool, available both on the Hub and for local deployment, allows users to experiment with thousands of open models, including OpenAI’s gpt-oss, without requiring code.
By Robert KrzaczyńskiAirbnb has developed Impulse, an internal load testing framework to improve microservice reliability and performance. It enables distributed, large-scale testing and lets teams run self-service, context-aware load tests integrated with CI pipelines. By simulating production-like traffic, Impulse helps engineers identify bottlenecks and errors before changes reach production.
By Leela KumiliMark Kurtz explains how to overcome the technical and financial hurdles of scaling GenAI. He shares how to optimize LLM deployments with open-source tools, including vLLM for efficient serving, LLM Compressor for model compression, and InstructLab for fine-tuning with synthetic data. He provides a deep dive into balancing performance, accuracy, and cost to ensure successful production deployment.
By Mark KurtzIn this podcast, Michael Stiefel spoke with Justin Sheehy about how to safely put software into production without creating production incidents. Among the topics discussed were the futility of root cause analysis, and the importance of having a shared language for discussing incidents. This discussion included the need for software to be malleable as well as observable.
