I bought copies of Jira and Confluence and I'm excited about learning about these products. Atlassian is a company I have admired ever since I met some of the folks in person at a Java Posse Roundup. It takes time to learn complex, robust software like JIra and Confluence so please, let's help eachother out by sharing here in Codetown what we discover. How many of us have gotten the software so far? Have you started using it yet?
Happy 10th year, JCertif!

Cloudflare has extended hybrid post-quantum encryption to IPsec and WAN traffic, standardizing its SASE stack ahead of the NIST 2030 deadline. By adopting a streamlined ML-KEM key exchange, the move addresses long-standing "ciphersuite bloat" in quantum-resistant IPsec. The update aims to neutralize "harvest now, decrypt later" threats without requiring specialized hardware upgrades.

Despite widespread industry recommendations, a new ETH Zurich paper concludes that AGENTS.md files may often hinder AI coding agents. The researchers recommend omitting LLM-generated context files entirely and limiting human-written instructions to non-inferable details, such as highly specific tooling or custom build commands.
