Cursor Deletes PocketOS Prod DB, .de DNSSEC Outage, Bluesky Postmortem, Argo CD, and Copy Fail

Episode notes

This episode of Ship It Weekly is about modern reliability getting squeezed from both directions. Old-school failures still hit hard, like broken DNSSEC, kernel privilege escalation bugs, and GitOps behavior changes. But newer automation layers add a second kind of risk, where AI agents, machine identity, and cloud control planes can do real damage fast when authority is too broad. Brian covers the Cursor and PocketOS production database wipe, the .de DNSSEC outage and Cloudflare’s response, Bluesky’s April outage postmortem, Argo CD v3.1.16 reaching end of life plus the v3.4.1 behavior change, Linux kernel CVE-2026-31431 under active exploitation, and why Google Cloud Agent Identity and AWS MCP Server GA both point to agents becoming first-class infrastructure actors.
