Mike, great group. I have a SunSpot and it's a great toy (platform). Also, couple of other great Java-based embedded computing platforms 1) http://www.sentilla.com/developer.html Sentilla Perks and the http://BugLabs.com. Check them out.

C++26: Reflection, Memory Safety, Contracts, and a New Async Model
The C++26 standard draft is now complete, reports Herb Sutter, long-time C++ expert and former chair of the ISO C++ standards committee. The finalized draft introduces reflection, enhances memory safety without requiring code rewrites, adds contracts with preconditions and postconditions alongside a new assertion statement, and establishes a unified framework for concurrency and parallelism.
By Sergio De SimoneMeta Reports 4x Higher Bug Detection with Just-in-Time Testing
Meta introduces Just-in-Time (JiT) testing, a dynamic approach that generates tests during code review instead of relying on static test suites. The system improves bug detection by ~4x in AI-assisted development using LLMs, mutation testing, and intent-aware workflows like Dodgy Diff. It reflects a shift toward change-aware, AI-driven software testing in agentic development environments
By Leela KumiliCNCF Warns Kubernetes Alone Is Not Enough to Secure LLM Workloads
A new blog from the Cloud Native Computing Foundation highlights a critical gap in how organizations are deploying large language models (LLMs) on Kubernetes: while Kubernetes excels at orchestrating and isolating workloads, it does not inherently understand or control the behavior of AI systems, creating a fundamentally different and more complex threat model.
By Craig RisiAnthropic Introduces Agent-Based Code Review for Claude Code
Anthropic has introduced a new Code Review feature for Claude Code, adding an agent-based pull request review system that analyzes code changes using multiple AI reviewers.
By Daniel DominguezPresentation: Speed at Scale: Optimizing the Largest CX Platform Out There
Matheus Albuquerque shares strategies for optimizing a massive CX platform, moving from React 15 and Webpack 1 to modern standards. He discusses using AST-based codemods for large-scale migrations, implementing differential serving with module/nomodule, and leveraging Preact to shrink footprints. He explains how to balance cutting-edge performance with strict legacy browser constraints.
