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.

Spencer Judge discusses the architectural pattern of building a shared core in Rust with language-specific layers on top. Drawing from his work on Temporal's SDKs, he shares lessons on navigating FFI boundaries, bridging async concepts, and managing memory safely. He explains the limitations of native extensions and how emerging tech like WebAssembly can streamline cross-language architecture.

Cloudflare released the Cloudflare One stack, an open-source library of agent skills for planning, deploying, and managing Zero Trust environments. The skills include automated migration logic for Zscaler and Palo Alto Networks, the same logic used in Cloudflare's Descaler program that has moved enterprise customers in hours rather than months.

Grab's security team built Palana, a Kubernetes-native secure execution platform, to run autonomous AI agents safely. Unlike deterministic software, model-driven agents exhibit unpredictable tool-use, code-writing, and prompt injection risks. Palana contains these threats at the infrastructure level using isolated namespaces, out-of-process control planes, and proxy-mediated, Vault-backed secrets.

Thariq Shihipar, engineering lead for the Claude Code team, recently published a blog post (Using Claude Code: The Unreasonable Effectiveness of HTML) arguing that HTML, with its richer visualizations, color, and interactivity, improves the productivity of human-agent communication in many settings, especially when compared to default Markdown outputs.
