📰Top Picks:

Amazon Just Dropped a Cursor

Kubernetes and Post-Quantum Cryptography: Ready or Not?
Quantum computers aren’t here yet, but they could break today’s encryption soon, and Kubernetes v1.33 is already quietly ready with post-quantum TLS support. Curious how your clusters are prepping for the quantum future? Check it out here.

More AWS news. This One’s Good for Your Wallet.
AWS just leveled up its Free Tier. New signups get $100 upfront and can earn another $100 by spinning up EC2, RDS, Lambda, Bedrock, and Budgets. There’s a new free account mode too—no billing surprises for six months. Explore 30+ services, get hands-on fast, and upgrade when you're ready. Read more

CI/CD Pipelines: Popular and Under Attack
Open Worldwide Application Security Project (OWASP) Top 10 CI/CD Security Risks is a must-read for anyone managing pipelines. Cloudsmith’s guide breaks it down with real-world examples and tips for Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and more. Worth a skim if you deploy code for a living. Check it out here.
