the `authorization.k8s.io` API group now allows providing the user uid. ([#49677](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/49677), [@dims](https://github.com/dims))

* After a kubelet rotates its client cert, it now closes its connections to the API server to force a handshake using the new cert. Previously, the kubelet could keep its existing connection open, even if the cert used for that connection was expired and rejected by the API server. ([#49899](https://github.com/kuber...

#### **Audit**

- When the `PreferSameTrafficDistribution` feature gate is enabled, a new `trafficDistribution` value `PreferSameNode` is available, which attempts to always route Service connections to an endpoint on the same node as the client. Additionally, `PreferSameZone` is introduced as an alias for `PreferClose`.

        `tf.function` objects can now be called with arguments consistent with
        the original arguments or type specs passed to `get_concrete_function`.
        This calling convention is now the preferred way to use concrete
        functions with nested values and composite tensors. Please check the
        [guide](https://www.tensorflow.org/guide/concrete_function) for more

### Fixes

* 🐛 Allow exit code for dependencies with `yield` to always execute, by removing capacity limiter for them, to e.g. allow closing DB connections without deadlocks. PR [#5122](https://github.com/tiangolo/fastapi/pull/5122) by [@adriangb](https://github.com/adriangb).
