* When using client or server certificate rotation, the Kubelet will no longer wait until the initial rotation succeeds or fails before starting static pods.  This makes running self-hosted masters with rotation more predictable. ([#58930](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58930), [@smarterclayton](https://github.com/smarterclayton))

  //    it would just add an edge such that if done() observed non-null, then it would also
  //    definitely observe all earlier writes, but we still have no guarantee that done() would see
  //    the initial write (just stronger guarantees if it does).

  // See: http://cs.oswego.edu/pipermail/concurrency-interest/2015-January/013800.html
  // For a (long) discussion about this specific issue and the general futility of life.

* Free up CPU and memory requested but unused by Metrics Server Pod Nanny. ([#57252](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57252), [@kawych](https://github.com/kawych))
* Configurable liveness probe initial delays for etcd and kube-apiserver in GCE ([#57749](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57749), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))

*   `tf.data`

    * `tf.data` now has an `autotune_options.initial_parallelism` option to
      control the initial parallelism setting used by autotune before the data
      pipeline has started running. The default is 16. A lower value reduces
      initial memory usage, while a higher value improves startup time.

## Keras

*  `keras.layers.experimental.DynamicEmbedding`

	return uint32(time.Now().UnixNano() + int64(os.Getpid()))
}

// nextSuffix - provides a new unique suffix every time the function is called.
func nextSuffix() string {
	randmu.Lock()
	r := randN
	// Initial seed required, generate one.
	if r == 0 {
		r = reseed()
	}
	// constants from Numerical Recipes
	r = r*1664525 + 1013904223
	randN = r
	randmu.Unlock()
	return strconv.Itoa(int(1e9 + r%1e9))[1:]
}

    value has always been nullable but it wasn't declared properly.
 *  Fix: Reverse suppression of connect exceptions. When both a call and its retry fail, we now
    throw the initial exception which is most likely to be actionable.
 *  Fix: Retain interrupted state when throwing `InterruptedIOException`. A single interrupt should
    now be sufficient to break out an in-flight OkHttp call.

by cert rotation were created in a combined PEM file that was atomically rotated as `kubelet-client-DATE.pem` in that directory, which meant clients relying on the `node.kubeconfig` generated by bootstrapping would never use a rotated cert.  The initial bootstrap certificate is now generated into the cert directory as a PEM file and symlinked to `kubelet-client-current.pem` so that the generated kubeconfig remains valid after rotation.
