Isn’t it nice to see work you contributed to being presented in the #KubeCon keynote? 😎

Systems Engineering in the Age of AI Resilient, but Not Immune

Full analysis:

#Kubernetes #AI #DistributedSystems #kubecon #CloudNative

AI is moving the bottleneck in software teams from writing code to reviewing it.

If 50% of AI-generated patches that pass tests get rejected by maintainers, the scarce resource isn't coding speed; it's judgment.

Wrote a deep analysis on what this means for systems engineers 🧵
#Kubernetes #kubecon

Kubernetes is working to introduce Workload-aware scheduling to the core, which will allow users to use gang scheduling for their workloads.

If you are running AI/ML or batch workload in Kubernetes, keep tracking this work.

It's happening! Workload APIs are getting integrated with the Job controller!!!

Stay tuned for the implementation in #kubernetes v1.36

The interview with Sascha Riley is just horrible… We are being ruled by a killer, pedo, child-trafficking, psycho peace of shit…
I will put the substack in the comment but huge shocking warning 😭

My love for this feature comes from how tiny the idea is and how impactful it gives users. #kubernetes #oss

The Magic Behind Containers From Kernel Primitives to Docker

Have you ever wondered what the container actually is? How does it work? What is the magic behind it? What is the difference between Docker and containers?

Read my recent blog here 👇, and let's work through these questions together.

And here is the final post in the #kubernetes kube-scheduler series.

Let's dig deep to know how ScheduleOne → schedulingCycle → bindingCycle is happening.

Kubernetes Scheduler Cache System The Foundation of Scheduling Decisions

Let's continue our journey inside #Kubernetes scheduler & deep dive into the cache module.

In this blog, you will understand how the kube-scheduler cache works and why the scheduler needs it.

Add semver comparison and CEL expressions support to Tolerations and NodeAffinity · Issue #5500 · kubernetes/enhancements Enhancement Description Currently, Kubernetes tolerations and NodeAffinity rules lack semantic versioning support.

An #OSS contribution opportunity. I can mentor/help/pair if you're willing to commit your time to get this KEP+ implementation done for alpha.

If only this policy was in place for cowards that dodge the draft like Trump’s Grandfather, Father, and Trump himself.

The community showed what accountability looks like; now the foundation must rise to that level. This work isn’t finished, but at least no one else will face the same silence and structural gaps that defined my experience.

Proposed Code of Conduct Updates for November 2025 by xmulligan · Pull Request #1192 · cncf/foundation The CNCF Code of Conduct Committee is proposing a change to the Code of Conduct to discourage the use of harmful mass criticism to target an individual and encourage the use of appropriate feedback...

I’m proud that what I went through resulted in tangible, permanent protections for others ... protections I did not have ... But progress does not erase responsibility.

..accountability or cultural change. Clear rules are only meaningful if they are enforced consistently, transparently, and without selective interpretation. But they directly address the failures that became visible through my experience.

They offered integrity, fairness, and support when the structure above them failed to do so. They are the reason I returned, and they remain the reason I continue contributing.

The updated CoC/FAQ are overdue steps forward. They don’t erase what happened, and they don’t by themselves create ...

The result is that contributors going forward are protected in ways I was not...

What makes the difference unmistakable is the contrast between leadership and the community. CNCF management did not uphold the values the foundation claims to represent. The contributors and maintainers did 💚.

Under the framework now in place, the process, the responsibility, and the outcome would have been different.

I didn’t receive an apology or acknowledgment that today’s rules would require, but that did not stop me from pushing to ensure these gaps were closed.

Retaliation Even in the OSS! Tech workers retaliation for speaking up!

1.5 years after publishing my reflection on that experience, the CNCF is now updating its Code of Conduct and has published new FAQ guidance that finally addresses the behaviors that were allowed to escalate in my case.
These standards were absent when I went through this.

Two years ago, I experienced an incident within the #CNCF ecosystem that exposed serious gaps in how harassment, pile-ons, and reputational attacks were handled. The systems meant to protect contributors simply weren’t there. 🧵

Kubernetes scheduling rarely feels like magic ... because it isn’t.

I just published a deep-dive blog post, “Kubernetes Scheduler & Queue Management,” on how the scheduler’s queueing logic works.

#Kubernetes #CloudNative #K8s #Scheduling

To every lawful immigrant and naturalized citizen who recognizes themselves in this: you are not guests in this country. We are Americans.

We have the right to speak, to vote, to organize, and we will use those rights to defend our place here.

@whitehouse-47.bsky.social

When lawful, tax-paying, highly skilled immigrants feel unwelcome or afraid, the country loses innovation, investment, and long-term commitment. Driving out people who help build this country is not strength; it is self-inflicted damage.
#Immigration
#USCitizenship
#EqualCitizenship

Section 212(f) is about controlling the entry of non-citizens at the border, not about downgrading the rights of existing U.S. citizens.

This climate not only harms immigrant families, but it also harms the United States.

Under U.S. law and the Constitution, naturalized citizens have the same rights as any other citizens. We are NOT guests. Our citizenship is NOT temporary, and it cannot be treated as something that can be taken away just because a politician dislikes our background or our opinions.

The irony is that U.S. policies helped make my region unlivable, and then my family came here believing in America’s promise of “real democracy”, rule of law, and equal citizenship ... only to hear talk of “denaturalizing migrants” and treating our citizenship as if it were conditional.
