If you use kubernetes-el, don't update for now, and you might want to check your installation if you updated it recently. The repo was compromised a few days ago.

I've occasionally wanted to tangle a single Org Mode source block to multiple places, so I'm glad to hear that ob-tangle has just added support for multiple targets. Niche, but could be handy. I'm also curious about using clime to write command-line tools in Emacs Lisp that handle argument parsing and all the usual stuff.

If you're looking for something to write about, why not try this month's Emacs Carnival theme of mistakes and misconceptions?

Enjoy!
