Raygun APM Agent 3.0.14: faster, simpler, and ready for ARM64

Today we are releasing Raygun APM Agent 3.0.14 for Windows, Linux, and Azure App Service. This release is the result of a substantial modernization of the Agent, profiler, installers, and release pipeline. It makes Raygun APM easier to deploy, reduces overhead in several critical paths, adds native Linux ARM64 support, and lets developers investigate APM data through Raygun API v3 and the Raygun MCP server. If you are upgrading from version 2.3.0, there is much more here than a version-number change.

From Handwritten Mocks to proxymock: The Complete Loop

Handwritten mocks are cheap one at a time. This series built enough of them to show how quickly that stops being true. Nine posts took one package notifier from a function returning "delayed" to a captured response from a real carrier.

We Benchmarked AI Models on Git Tasks. Results Surprised Us

Most AI model benchmarks measure general coding ability or reasoning. GitBench, built by GitKraken developer advocate Chris Griffing, measures something narrower and more practical: how well a given AI model handles specific Git tasks, starting with commit squashing, identifying which commits in a messy history should be combined into one clean commit.

If We're Not Up, The Checkout Breaks

Kintsugi puts sales tax compliance on autopilot for 7,300 companies selling into 110 countries, and its tax engine sits inside other companies' checkouts. The answer has to arrive before the shopper finishes paying. "Typically, a customer's expectation is that we are returning the sales tax estimate on the invoice within 100 milliseconds." The cost of missing is not abstract: "For every minute that our sales tax API, if it ever goes down, our customers are not able to collect roughly $4 million in sales tax that they should be collecting.".
