Daniel Finneran explores how eBPF has evolved far beyond its roots in packet filtering into a robust, safe way to extend the Linux kernel. He explains how the eBPF "verifier", the security guardrail, enables implementation of deep observability and networking without the risks of traditional kernel modules or the slow upstreaming process.

Naomi Saphra discusses 5 rules governing language model behavior, breaking down why LLMs act like populations rather than individuals. She explains how tokenization creates strange semantic blind spots and highlights the mechanics of sycophancy, showing how models leverage subtle data associations to match user biases and demographics - even guessing political views based on favorite sports teams.

With the Reactive Data Layer Architecture (RDLA), you establish a clear boundary between public data APIs and private, framework-specific data-source implementations. Your presentation layer operates in a purely reactive manner, observing data changes rather than procedurally querying them. RDLA also simplifies testing by encouraging you to program to interfaces and use clean seeding patterns. (Article)
