A GitLab pipeline can build, test, and deploy successfully while still shipping a vulnerable package. Passing CI does not always mean the release is safe. It only means the checks you configured passed. That is why GitLab CI security scanning matters. Dependency scanning, secret detection, and package audits help teams catch vulnerable open source components before they reach production. GitLab Ultimate includes built-in security features, but Free and Premium users can still build strong pip... Read more ›
DevOps has always evolved with technology. Cloud changed how teams manage infrastructure. Containers changed how applications are deployed. CI/CD changed how software is released. Observability changed how teams monitor systems. Now AI is starting to change DevOps again. The next stage of DevOps is not only automation. It is intelligence. *DevOps Was Built on Automation * Automation is one of the strongest foundations of DevOps. DevOps teams automate: • Builds • Tests • Deployments • Infrastr... Read more ›

There's a moment in almost every RAG project where someone asks the question that decides your next two years of ops work: "Do we actually need a vector database, or can Postgres just do this?" It's a better question than it sounds, because the honest answer isn't "use Pinecone" or "use Postgres." It's "it depends on numbers you probably haven't measured yet": how many vectors, how aggressively you filter, how much you care about the absolute ceiling of queries per second. Most teams pick bas... Read more ›

Timekeeping is an essential underpinning of daily life and a vital component of our social and technological infrastructure. The Japanese optical lattice clock, a top candidate for redefinition of the second, marks time with such staggering precision that it can measure small differences in elevation using Einstein’s theory of general relativity.

Whether you're brand new to Power BI or just getting started with data analytics, this guide walks you through everything you need to know about data modeling — from how tables connect, to the schemas that make your reports fast and reliable. What Is Data Modeling in Power BI? Imagine you have three spreadsheets: one with your customers, one with your products, and one with your sales transactions. Individually, each table tells you something. But together, they can tell you which customer bo... Read more ›
I’ve been working on in meshoptimizer recently; in the process I stumbled upon two optimizations that I did not end up using but I thought they might be fun to write about! The optimizations that actually made it in require some higher level background / explanations that will have to wait until another day :) Both optimizations discussed here touch upon two new (for me) features of AVX-512 that I haven’t had a chance to experiment with until now, and both apply to the same problem: how to de...

Executive Summary: To eliminate race conditions in a high-concurrency ticketing system, I implemented PostgreSQL's FOR UPDATE clause for row-level database locking alongside Go worker channels for in-memory queue serialization. This approach completely prevents inventory over-selling by guaranteeing singular data mutation execution even under flash-sale load. If you have ever built an application that handles live event ticketing, flash sales, or limited-inventory drops, you know the dread of... Read more ›
In this post, we explain how Private Networking for Amazon MQ for RabbitMQ works and walk through the setup process. Whether you’re securing a private identity provider, federating messages between brokers, or connecting to self-hosted RabbitMQ, your broker can now reach private destinations without exposing them publicly.

Most Kubernetes observability failures aren't caused by a lack of data but by a lack of shared context between metrics, logs, traces, and infrastructure events. This article outlines a signal-first observability strategy built around consistent service identity, bounded metric cardinality, OpenTelemetry instrumentation, and unified event correlation, helping teams move from symptom to root cause without jumping across disconnected tools.

The ZFS partition/volume expansion is generally not an ultra hard task … but needs one step at a time approach. Today we will follow them one by one to expand GELI encrypted ZFS disk. There is only one potential problem – and I faced that recently with one of the other VMs I manage. If […] Read more ›
Contextual valuation is a well-documented phenomenon in reinforcement learning, typically manifesting as range normalization in outcome representation. However, recent findings have revealed systematic deviations from this model, particularly when three options with equally spaced values are presented. In this study, we hypothesize that these distortions in outcome normalization arise from attentional processes. To test this, we conduct three experiments with 105 participants in total while s...
