Managing time shiftable devices
Check out the latest post on my blog, where I write about a variety of topics - as long it combines math and code in some way. This post takes a short look at the challenges of controllable devices in a smart grid. https://bitsandtheorems.com/managing-time-shiftable-devices/ submitted by /u/Knaapje [link] [comments]
Scoped Values: Revolutionizing Java Context Management
In an application meant for concurrent execution need of sharing data (or context) between threads is imperative. The available design choices are to pass the context as method parameter(s) or enable the context to be universally accessible (viz. global variable or equivalent). While former choice (i.e. context as method argument) is easiest it doesnβt scale well. As the application evolves, the context too grows and...
Do You Understand the Debt You Have to Pay?
I was fortunate to start my career with people who truly cared about code quality. Early on, I learned why this matters and how continuous attention to quality positively impacts customer satisfaction. This experience made it natural for me to improve legacy code and constantly seek further enhancements. However, at the beginning of my journey, my perspective was narrowβI saw only the code. So, my efforts focused...
WebFuzzing/EvoMaster version 4.0.0: Open-Source Fuzzer for REST APIs

AWS Step Functions IDE Extension: A Game Changer, but Whatβs Next?
If youβve ever worked with AWS Step Functions, you know the struggle. Debugging workflows locally? A nightmare. Testing small changes? Deploy, wait, check logs, repeat. The experience has been far from smooth β until now. AWS just launched a Step Functions extension for VSCode, and itβs a huge step forward. But as great as this update is, one big question remains: why is this limited to VSCode? What about IntelliJ,...

Deploying a Scalable Golang Application on Kubernetes: A Practical Guide
Golang is the finest programming language for constructing applications that can scale well and at high density due to the concurrency and performance inherent in the language itself. Kubernetes is the best standard for container orchestration, which gives a platform for deploying, managing, and scaling applications. Together, they constitute a formidable pair for creating unobtrusive and bulletproof microservices....

Data Mesh Security: How to Protect Decentralized Data Architectures
The rise of data mesh architectures redefines how modern organizations have approached the concept of data security. Standard best practices dictate that data should be centralized, allowing it to be collected, stored, and governed within monolithic systems, such as data warehouses. enabled centralized access control, governance, and 'auditability'. The data mesh model, however, disrupts this architecture and...

Getting Started With Android UI Development With Jetpack Compose
I was contacted by my friend Aditya last month with tremendous enthusiasm regarding a new Android feature he had discovered. "Mohit, you won't believe it! I just used Jetpack Compose and it's insane!" At first, I was like, "Whatever dude, another Google framework that will be obsolete next year." But then, Dan showed me his project, and frankly, I was kind of blown away. Why We Started Working With Jetpack Compose...

Chrisβ Corner: Browser Wars Micro Edition
Ages ago, Firefox shipped βmasonry layoutβ where you simply grid-template-rows: masonry; instead of defining specific rows in a grid or letting them auto-create. It wasnβt terribly powerful but it did the trick for a lot of use cases. There has been renewed interest in this the past year or so, where Google and Apple have [β¦]
Designing Resilient Systems: What Every Engineering Manager Should Know
Introduction: Why Resiliency Matters If you've ever launched a major feature, only to watch it spectacularly break under pressure, you know exactly why resiliency matters. As a Software Development Manager (SDM) at Amazon, I've been on the front lines of creating systems that handle real-world chaos gracefully. Let's talk resiliency β focusing on critical architectural patterns in plain language: Retries, Circuit...

DSPy Framework: A Comprehensive Technical Guide With Executable Examples
Building AI applications today needs the crafting of each prompt carefully balanced, but one small change can bring the whole system crashing down. Traditional prompt engineering is brittle, unpredictable, and exhausting to maintain. Thatβs where DSPy (Declarative Self-improving Python) comes in. Developed by Stanford NLP researchers, DSPy takes a totally different approach. Instead of manually tweaking prompts and...

Testing Approaches for Java Enterprise Applications With Jakarta NoSQL and Jakarta Data
When discussing software development and its history, we often hear quotes emphasizing the importance of testing; however, in practice, we usually prioritize it as the last step, perhaps ahead of documentation. Without proper testing, ensuring the quality of your software is nearly impossible. Tests work as a safety certification, catching issues early and ensuring that your software behaves as expected. Despite their...
The Immune System of Software: Can Biology Illuminate Testing?
"It is one of the philosophical enigmas of immunity that the self exists largely in the negative β as holes in the recognition of the foreign." β Siddhartha Mukherjee, The Song of the Cell In biology, the immune system is not simply a defence mechanism. It is a highly sophisticated, adaptive intelligence system that defines the organism by what it does not attack. In other words, immunity is not only...

What if verification could be intuitive, beautiful, and collaborative? The Kintsugi Paradox-Loop CAPTCHA System is an open-source project that reimagines security: bots get trapped in recursive paradox loops, while humans pass through creative, philosophical challenges. Each attack...
SecretShare: Easy, secure one time secret sharing CLI [OpenSource]
Iβve had to share a ton of API keys lately, and it seems wild there isnβt a simple hacker friendly way to do this. I built a easy to use CLI for sharing secrets and the whole process takes about 15 seconds: The receiver runs secret_share and it generates a one-time public key they can send to the sender The sender runs secret_share, pastes in the public key from the receiver, types the secret, and gets an encrypted...
