Assorted links for Thursday, January 2:

  1. Design Token-Based UI Architecture

    Design tokens are design decisions as data and serve as a single source of truth for design and engineering. Utilizing deployment pipelines, they enable automated code generation across platforms, allowing for faster updates and improved consistency in design.

  2. Retrofitting spatial safety to hundreds of millions of lines of C++

    [W]e’re working towards bringing spatial memory safety into as many of our C++ codebases as possible, including Chrome and the monolithic codebase powering our services.

    Building on the successful deployment of hardened libc++ in Chrome in 2022, we’ve now made it default across our server-side production systems.

  3. Reconsidering Kubernetes deployments: when operators are overkill

    TL:DR: Kubernetes Operators are powerful but can be overkill for simple deployments. Explore alternatives like Helm, ArgoCD, and Devtron to streamline your Kubernetes deployments without sacrificing efficiency.

  4. Securely Deploy and Run Multiple Tenants on Kubernetes

    Three fundamental options:

    1. Namespace-Based Isolation With Network Policies, RBAC and Security Controls
    2. Cluster-Level Isolation
    3. Virtual Clusters
  5. AI-Driven Code Review: Enhancing Developer Productivity and Code Quality

    AI-driven code review tools are changing traditional development and helping teams build better software.
