Cyber Security is escalating on both sides

The nature of cyber security is changing. In this video, I do a brief recap of a few of the compromises of the past couple weeks as well as highlight how our role as engineers is changing. Attackers have an easier time than ever in watching repos for changes to exploit 0-day vulnerabilities. But, it isn't all doom and gloom as long as we put in the effort. AI is creating a bit of an arms race between attackers and maintainers of sites and services, but there are actually more powerful tools available to defenders through exclusive programs like Daybreak, Glasswing, etc.

How to Run an On-Call Schedule in Microsoft Teams

If your company lives in Microsoft Teams, your on-call schedule should live there too. An on-call schedule in Microsoft Teams means anyone in a channel can see who is on call right now, reach that person with one mention, and trust that the answer is correct without opening a separate tool or a stale spreadsheet. This guide covers the options Teams gives you out of the box, where each one breaks down, and a step-by-step setup that works for engineering, IT and support teams of any size.

Prove Your AI Gains, Then Improve Them | GitKraken Workshop

Everyone feels faster with AI, but almost nobody can prove it. In this hands-on GitKraken workshop, Jeremy Castile, Scott Ferguson, and Justin Roberts show you how to get a real read on your AI agents: what they actually cost, what they produce, and whether they’re making your team faster, then how to take that data and improve it. You’ll see how to read an agentic workflow across adoption, autonomy, activity, cost, and outcomes in real time, how to spot where you’re overspending, and how to run and right-size multiple agents so you scale your agent work without scaling the bill.

How to Plan a Team Celebration Without Creating Social Pressure

A good team celebration should feel like something employees want to attend, not another obligation quietly added to the working week. Whether you're marking a successful year, a big project or an important company milestone, bringing people together can be a brilliant way to recognise effort and strengthen relationships. The difficulty begins when "Would you like to come?" starts sounding suspiciously like "We'll notice if you don't." People have different responsibilities, personalities and ideas of fun, so the most successful celebrations tend to leave plenty of room for choice.

Jira Round Robin Assignment: Automation and Slack Setup

Jira round robin assignment hands each new issue to the next person on a list, so incoming work spreads evenly instead of piling up on whoever happens to be watching the queue. Jira Cloud can do this natively with Jira Automation, and for most teams that takes ten minutes to set up. The hard part is everything around it: people on leave, triage that happens in Slack instead of Jira, and the gap between "evenly assigned" and "actually picked up".

Self Healing Agentic Pipeline | Bitbucket Blitz | Atlassian

Ever had a broken test stop your flow? In this Bitbucket Blitz video, we look at how to setup self-healing pipelines using Bitbucket and Bitbucket Agentic Pipelines. Instead of just failing and waiting for a human, the pipeline triggers an agent when a build or test breaks on a feature branch. The agent reads the logs, finds the root cause in the source code, creates a fix branch, and opens a pull request ready for review.
