Lily Mara, Hunter Laine walk through the design of a system, its performance characteristics, and how they scaled it.
By Lily Mara, Hunter LaineArticle: Is Your Test Suite Brittle? Maybe It’s Too DRY
One important design principle in software development is DRY – Don’t Repeat Yourself. However, when DRY is applied to test code, it can cause the test suite to become brittle — difficult to understand, maintain, and change. In this article, I will present some indications that a test suite is brittle, guidelines to follow when reducing duplication in tests, and better ways to DRY up tests.

By Jenna ZeigenSSH Backdoor from Compromised XZ Utils Library
When Microsoft Engineer Andres Freund noticed SSH was taking longer than usual he discovered a backdoor in xz utils, one of the underlying libraries for systemd, that had taken years to be put in place. The backdoor had found its way into testing releases of Linux distributions like Debian Sid, Fedora 41 and Fedora Rawhide but was caught before propagating into more highly used stable releases.
