Observe Opaque Services With OpenTelemetry eBPF + proxymock

Every SRE team operates services it cannot see into: a vendor binary, an inherited legacy deployment, a container whose owning team dissolved two reorgs ago. The routes are undocumented, the dependencies are unknown, and when a request takes 130 milliseconds nobody can say whether that time is application work or a wait across a network boundary.

Faster SQL Server Development Without the Downstream Risk | The Tony and Tonie Show Ep 48

Faster SQL coding only releases engineering capacity if it doesn’t create more late-stage rework and deployment risk. Tony and Tonie discuss how SQL Toolbelt Essentials helps teams keep speed and control aligned. Learn how SQL Toolbelt Essentials helps SQL Server teams write better code faster, catch issues while the code is still being developed, and apply shared standards before changes reach review, test, or deployment.

Anthropic's Mythos 5 Created Fake GitHub Identities & the U.S. Government's New AI Review

Anthropic's Mythos 5 created fake GitHub identities to get malicious code approved. Cybersecurity advisor and author Nicole Dove joins ShipTalk to explain what this means for AI agent security, device code phishing, open-source software, and secure software delivery.

GitLens 19: Your Entire Development Workflow in the Commit Graph

GitLens 19 is here, with a reimagined Commit Graph built to be your workbench for modern parallel development. See what’s happening across branches, worktrees, and supported coding agent sessions, then move the work forward without constantly jumping between views and tools.

ACP: The Protocol Powering Kepler

The secret sauce that powers Agentic Development Environments (ADEs) like Kepler is a little thing called the Agent Client Protocol (ACP). In this context, Kepler is the Client and harnesses like Claude Code and the Codex CLI are the Agents. We’re going to go over some of the details about how it works, how we use it at GitKraken, and how the protocol may be changing for the better.

The Architecture Question That Never Dies: From BPMN and M&A to MCP

Twenty years ago at RMIT, I became preoccupied with a question that sounded technical but was really about corporate value: could you predict how difficult a company would be to acquire by looking at the shape of its APIs? It was 2006. I was completing Honours in a Bachelor of Applied Science in Software Engineering, and the brief for my research project was unusually open: find an impactful software research hypothesis that hasn’t been done before.

A Guide to DDoS Protection in Your Network

Learn how DDoS attacks work, how threats are evolving, and how modern network-integrated protection can help defend your infrastructure. Network connectivity is the frontline of revenue generation and customer trust for almost every modern enterprise. But as digital footprints expand across hybrid and multicloud environments, Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks continue to grow in volume, frequency, and sophistication.
