Get ahead of the curve with the latest insights, trends, and analysis in the tech world.
Most of the large language models' applications have been implemented in centralized cloud environments, raising concerns about latency, privacy, and energy consumption. This chapter examines the potential application of LLMs in decentralized edge computing, where computing tasks are distributed across interconnected devices rather than centralized hosts. Therefore, by applying approaches like quantization, model...
Editor's Note: The following is an article written for and published inDZone's 2025 Trend Report,Kubernetes in the Enterprise: Optimizing the Scale, Speed, and Intelligence of Cloud Operations. After training a machine learning model, the inference phase must be fast, reliable, and cost efficient in production. Serving inference at scale, however, brings difficult problems: GPU/resource management, latency and...
Chris & Marie jump on the podcast to talk about just how drastically customer support has changed over the last few years. We still exclusively do customer support over email. Incoming email from real customers who need a hand with something where they type out that email in plain languages themselves are few and far [β¦]
A few months ago, my manager assigned me a task: implement a search functionality across an entire page. The tricky part was that the displayed text was shown in the form of prompts, and each prompt could be truncated after two lines. If the text exc...
Agile is one of the most widely adopted project management methodologies in the field of software development because it enables teams to deliver incrementally, adapt quickly to changes, and prioritize collaboration over rigid processes. However, Agileβs fast-changing nature can also expose one of its weaknesses, which is traceability. Traditional project management approaches, such as Waterfall, make sure that...
As you may know, this year Go switched its hashmap implementation from Buckets to Swiss tables looking for a boost in performance, how much? A lot according to Datadog: Go 1.24's Swiss Tables cut our map memory usage by up to 70% in high traffic workloads So I made a visual version of Swiss Tables and a tutorial so you can have an overall view of them and understand why they're so fast submitted by /u/prox_sea [link]...
Everywhere I go, cloud and DevOps teams are asking the same question: βAre we ready for AI?β
Measuring the true performance of machine learning models goes far beyond headline accuracy. The metrics you choose shape not only how you tweak your algorithms, but how your models impact users, businesses, and critical systems. In this article, we break down the most practical and widely used evaluation metrics: Accuracy, Precision, Recall, F1 Score, and ROC-AUC. Alongside technical definitions, we'll discuss their...

Note: This article is a summary of a talk I gave at VLCTesting in 2023. Here's the recording (Spanish). Test automation is a fundamental tool for gaining confidence in what we build in a fast and efficient way. However, we often encounter practices that, while seemingly beneficial in the short term, generate significant problems in the long term: antipatterns.
Attackers only really care about two aspects of a leaked secret: does it still work, and what privileges it grants once they are in. One of the takeaways from GitGuardianβs 2025 State of Secrets Sprawl Report was that the majority of GitLab and GitHub API keys leaked in public had been granted full read and write access to the associated repositories. Once an attacker controls access to a repository, they can do all...

How do LLMs actually work? We just posted a course on the freeCodeCamp.org YouTube channel that will teach you how to build a large language model from scratch using pure PyTorch. This isn't your typical course that just scratches the surface. Itβs a...
From Guesswork to Growth: Why A/B Testing Is Non-Negotiable Every product decision is a bet under uncertainty. A/B testing turns those bets into measurable, causal learning. By randomly assigning users to control versus treatment, you create two groups that are β on average β identical. Any difference in conversion, retention, revenue, or latency can be attributed to the change, not to seasonality, campaigns, or...
I published a new blog post: "A Tour of eBPF in the Linux Kernel: Observability, Security and Networking". I recently read the book "Learning eBPF" by Liz Rice and condensed my notes into this article. Great for a quick overview before you decide to dive deeper! submitted by /u/lucavallin [link] [comments]

This article reviews five popular RADs that can meet the needs of professional developers. This blog post reviews five popular Rapid Application Development (RAD) platforms: WaveMaker, OpenXava, OutSystems, Oracle APEX, and Jmix. I will break down each...
We recently published a piece on ShiftMag (a project by Infobip) that I think might interest folks here. Itβs a candid breakdown of how Infobipβs infrastructure team scaled to handling 10 billion messages in a single day β not just the technical wins, but also the painful outages, bad regexes, and hard lessons learned along the way. submitted by /u/shift_devs [link] [comments]
Jeff Hollan, director of product at Snowflake, joins Ryan to discuss the role that data plays in making AI and AI agents better. Along the way, they discuss how a database leads to an AI platform, Snowflakeβs new data marketplace, and the role data will play in AI agents.
Social applications have evolved over the years, and there is a major need for secure methods to authenticate users' identities. Integrating multifactor authentication capabilities into applications is crucial for strengthening their integrity. In so...
Authentication is an important aspect when building applications, especially if they hold financial information or require users to sign into accounts. Building an auth library can be a lot of work, and there is no need to reinvent the wheel when so ...

Many outdated or imprecise claims about transaction isolation levels in MongoDB persist. These claims are outdated because they may be based on an old version where multi-document transactions were introduced, MongoDB 4.0, such as the old Jepsen report, and issues have been fixed since then. They are also imprecise because people attempt to map MongoDB's transaction isolation to SQL isolation levels, which is...
Done well, knowledge base integrations enable AI agents to deliver specific, context-rich answers without forcing employees to dig through endless folders. Done poorly, they introduce security gaps and permissioning mistakes that erode trust. The challenge for software developers building these integrations is that no two knowledge bases handle permissions the same way. One might gate content at the space level,...

When I first tried to implement AI in a test automation framework, I expected it to be helpful only for a few basic use cases. A few experiments later, I noticed several areas where the ChatGPT API actually saved me time and gave the test automation framework more power: producing realistic test data, analyzing logs in white-box tests, and handling flaky tests in CI/CD. Getting Started With the ChatGPT API ChatGPT API...

Just as humans have always preferred co-existing and communicating ideas, looking for and providing pieces of advice from and to their fellow humans, applications nowadays find themselves in the same situation, where they need to exchange data in order to collaborate and fulfill their purposes. At a very high level, applicationsβ interactions are carried out either conversationally (the case of REST APIs), where the...
