Wasmer Built a Full Node.js Runtime in Two Weeks With Codex — What Edge.js Actually Buys a PaaS Over Docker
Wasmer says Codex helped it build a full Node.js runtime in two weeks instead of a year. Here's what Edge.js's WASIX sandbox actually costs and buys a PaaS running MCP servers and agent-generated code, with real compatibility and cold-start numbers.
The 47-Day Certificate Era: TLS Automation Becomes Mandatory for Self-Hosted Infrastructure
CA/Browser Forum rules cut TLS certificate lifetimes from 398 to 47 days by 2029, with domain-validation reuse shrinking to 7 hours. Here's the full timeline and what it breaks in self-hosted TLS automation.
Agentic GitOps: Why Your Deploy Agent Should Open a Pull Request, Not Call the API Directly
A Cursor agent's direct API call deleted a production volume and its backups in nine seconds. Here's why routing agent-originated infrastructure changes through a pull request, not a live API call, is the safer default for deploy-from-chat.
AI Sandbox Pricing at Scale: $7,200 vs $16,819 vs $24,491 vs $35,000 for 200 Sandboxes
Five vendors charge $7,200 to $35,770 a month for the same 200-sandbox AI-agent workload. Here's where the 4x+ spread actually comes from, and what the same workload costs bin-packed onto your own post-price-hike Hetzner hardware.
AWS Closed App Runner to New Customers on April 30 — and Proved the PaaS Layer Is the First Thing Even a Hyperscaler Cuts
AWS closed App Runner to new signups on April 30, 2026 — not because the underlying compute was unprofitable, but because the git-push convenience layer on top of it wasn't worth maintaining, even for the company that owns every piece underneath it.
CAPD vs CAPH: One Cluster API, From Your Laptop to Real Hetzner Bare Metal
CAPD and CAPH speak the exact same Cluster API contract at opposite extremes — one fakes the hardware for local dev, the other provisions real Hetzner dedicated servers. Here's what changes, what doesn't, and the gotchas in between.
Kubernetes Quietly Fixed a Years-Old cgroup v1-to-v2 CPU Priority Bug: What the January 2026 Formula Rewrite Means
A linear formula meant to convert cgroup v1 CPU shares into v2 CPU weight silently gave 1-CPU containers about 39% of the priority they should've had, invisible to kubectl and metrics-server the whole time. Here's the fixed formula, the exact command to audit your own nodes, and what rolling it out across a self-hosted fleet's node images actually requires.
Your CI Runner Already Trusts an AI Agent: What Claude Code and Codex CLI's Non-Interactive Mode Doesn't Guard Against
Claude Code and Codex CLI both ship non-interactive modes built for unattended CI, but neither ships the scoped tokens, transcript redaction, or agent-independent rollback that make letting an agent push to prod safe rather than a demo.
Cloudflare's 60-Minute Disposable Workers: The Zero-Signup Deploy Target AI Agents Actually Need
Cloudflare shipped a Worker deploy an agent can create with zero signup, live for exactly 60 minutes. Here's the mechanism, how it stacks up against E2B/Daytona/Fly/Modal, and whether a Cluster-API PaaS can build the same thing without a sandbox vendor.
