Welcome to the cozy corner of the tech world where ones and zeros mingle with casual chit-chat. DataTopics Unpluggedis your go-to spot for relaxed discussions on tech, news, data, and society.

This week, we’re unpacking everything from AI-powered vacations (or the lack thereof) to corporate drama, and even a deep dive into the quirks of COBOL. Join Morillo, Bart, and Alex as they navigate the latest happenings in data and tech, including:

Airbnb AI: The CEO of Airbnb thinks AI trip planning is still a pipe dream. Is he right?
Anthropic’s next AI model: A new Claude model could be just weeks away, promising a hybrid of deep reasoning and speed.
OpenAI’s roadmap: Sam Altman lays out vague but ambitious plans, blurring the lines between AI models.
Elon vs. OpenAI: Musk offers $97B for OpenAI, Altman claps back. Just another day in AI power struggles.
RIP Viktor Antonov: The legendary art lead behind Half-Life 2 and Dishonored passes away at 52.
Project Sid AI agents: 1,000 AI agents left to their own devices in Minecraft… What could go wrong?
DeepSeek R1 breaks speed records: The latest AI model boasts a staggering 198 tokens per second.
Perplexity’s Deep Research is now free: A game-changer for AI-powered search? We discuss.
COBOL and the mystery of 1875-05-20: Why do old systems default to weird dates?
Polars Cloud: A new distributed architecture to run Polars anywhere.
Pickle AI avatars: Deepfake yourself into meetings. Ethical? Useful? Just plain weird?
Vim after Bram: How the legendary text editor is surviving after its creator’s passing.
Working Fast and Slow: A take on productivity, deep focus, and why some days just don’t work.

#86 What’s Next for Kubernetes? KubeCon 2025 Recap with Nick Schouten 1:03:20

20 روز پیش1:03:20

1:03:20

Send us a text Welcome to the cozy corner of the tech world! Datatopics is your go-to spot for relaxed discussions around tech, news, data, and society. In this episode of Data Topics , we sit down with Nick Schroeder — data engineer at dataroots — for a full recap of KubeCon Europe 2025 and a deep dive into the current and future state of Kubernetes. We talk through what’s actually happening in the Kubernetes ecosystem — from platform engineering trends to AI infra challenges — and why some teams are doubling down while others are stepping away. Here’s what we cover: What Kubernetes actually is , and how to explain it beyond the buzzword When Kubernetes is the right choice (e.g., hybrid environments, GPU-heavy workloads) — and when it’s overkill How teams are trying to host LLMs and AI models on Kubernetes , and the blockers they’re hitting (GPUs, complexity, cost) GitOps innovations spotted at KubeCon — like tools that convert UI clicks into Git commits for infrastructure-as-code Why observability is still one of Kubernetes’ biggest weaknesses , and how a wave of new startups are trying to solve it The push to improve developer experience for ML and data teams (no more YAML overload) The debate around abstraction vs control — and how some teams are turning away from Kubernetes entirely in favor of simpler tools What “ vibe coding ” means in an LLM-driven world, and how voice-to-code workflows are changing how we write infrastructure Whether the future of Kubernetes is more “visible and accessible,” or further under the hood If you're a data engineer, MLOps practitioner, platform lead, or simply trying to stay ahead of the curve in infrastructure and AI — this episode is packed with relevant insights from someone who's hands-on with both the tools and the teaching.…
