First of all, relax, I'm not announcing an exclusive executive swapmeet. The market for used cell phones has ramped up to a whopping $11 billion as of 2016[1].

Mobile devices prove to be a setback for cross-platform software development, but I hope it will be a minor one. At present, Android totally dominates the mobile market both in terms of hardware and software volume. As well, mobile devices are overtaking desktops for overall usage as we speak. But Linux, as open-source-friendly as it is appears to be getting the rub from Google, so where are we?
As Google continues to grumble about not controlling the world, they're leaking…

Presentation: The Next Generation of AI Products
Hilary Mason shares her journey from academia to building AI products at scale. She discusses the shift from discrete engineering to probabilistic mindsets, explaining why managing "human considerations" is the hardest part of the stack. She explains the "existential crisis" for engineers, arguing that great architecture today is about context management, systems thinking, and good taste.

Autonomous AI agents break Kubernetes security assumptions with dynamic dependencies, multi-domain credentials, and unpredictable resource use. This article covers production-tested patterns: Job-based isolation, Vault for scoped short-lived credentials, a four-phase trust model from shadow mode to autonomous operation, and observability for non-deterministic reasoning cycles.

Broadcom has announced the contribution of Velero, its Kubernetes-native backup, restore and migration project, to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) as a Sandbox project. Velero It operates at the Kubernetes API layer, capturing cluster state through Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) rather than through hypervisor or storage-layer snapshots.
By Matt SaundersNVIDIA Launches Ising Open Models for Quantum Computing
NVIDIA has announced a new family of open models called NVIDIA Ising, designed to address quantum processor calibration and quantum error correction. These are two of the main engineering challenges limiting the scalability of current quantum systems, where noise and instability in qubits reduce the reliability of computations.
