This episode of Ship It Weekly is about the hidden glue holding production together.

Brian covers Coinbase’s May 7 outage postmortem, where an AWS us-east-1 cooling failure exposed the difference between being “multi-AZ” on paper and actually being able to recover when stateful, low-latency systems are tied to a failed zone.

Then he looks at Meta’s AI-assisted Instagram support issue and why account recovery is identity infrastructure, not just customer support. If AI can influence password resets, email changes, MFA resets, or account ownership flows, that workflow needs to be treated like a production control plane.

The episode also covers AWS AgentCore CLI CVE-2026-11393, where collaborator metadata could break out into generated Python code during agent import, and an Apigee cross-tenant issue from Google’s Apigee security bulletins that shows why tenant isolation has to be tested beyond the obvious happy path.
