Oct 24, 2026 By Harness In Harness
Microsoft just released over 1,400 security patches, including three zero-day vulnerabilities, one of which is already being exploited. But is this a sign of better security or a much bigger problem? In this ShipTalk discussion, we break down Microsoft's massive Patch Tuesday release, the challenges of managing thousands of vulnerabilities across enterprise environments, and whether AI is helping Microsoft find problems too late in the software development process.

5 Questions to Ask Before the Next Cloud Outage

Oct 23, 2026 By Alan Mon In Speedscale
On October 20, a power failure in one of Google Cloud’s three London zones disrupted Revolut, Lloyds, HSBC and others for hours. One zone failed, errors spread region-wide, and Google warned customers they might not be able to create new workloads to fail over to. Most teams find out how resilient they are during an outage, not before one. These five questions let you find out first.

Does the UK really need Gigawatt data centres? | Civo Navigate London 2026

Oct 23, 2026 By Civo In Civo
Everyone's racing to build gigawatt AI factories by 2035. What if the faster route is already plugged in? Swarms of agents need far more compute than a chat prompt ever did, and the scaling laws say demand isn't slowing. But in the UK, anything over 15MW can mean waiting until 2032 or later for a grid connection. So the panel makes a different case: smaller sites on existing power and fibre, linked into one national campus, live in less time than a single mega-build.

Before you build your own internal platform, run these numbers

Oct 23, 2026 By Upsun In Upsun
"We'll just build it ourselves" is usually said with confidence and a rough headcount estimate. Six months later, the team that was supposed to spend two sprints on it is still maintaining it a year in, and the platform that was meant to save engineering time has become one of the things engineering time goes to. Build isn't automatically the wrong call. Sometimes it's the right one.

AI is making code generation faster than ever. But writing code is only half the battle. Neil Watkins from Burns & McDonnell explains why the next big challenge in AI-driven software development isn't generating more code. It's making sure that code can be tested, secured, and deployed safely. As AI accelerates development, businesses need to rethink how they manage risk and ship software with confidence.

Git worktrees: How to work on multiple branches at once

Oct 23, 2026 By Jacob Schmitt In CircleCI
Git worktrees let you check out multiple branches of the same repository in separate directories. Each worktree has its own files and staging area, but they all share the same Git history. You can work on several branches without repeatedly switching between them, stashing changes, or cloning the repository again. Worktrees are especially useful when working with coding agents. Tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor can use them to handle multiple tasks in parallel without editing the same files.
