It’s been nearly a decade since JavaScript started getting new updates to the language specification — a process that had stalled for many years, leading to a plethora of frameworks and libraries and some very useful experimentation, but also frustration about the future direction of the language.

It’s no secret that the rise of large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and Bard has dramatically changed how many work, communicate, and learn. But LLMs have applications other than replacing search engines. Most recently, data scientists have repurposed LLMs for time series forecasting. Time series data is ubiquitous across domains, from financial markets to climate science.

Developers who tried Angular years ago should revisit the framework because it’s simpler, more performant and more developer-friendly now, an Angular representative told audiences at a Saturday teleconference. Mark Thompson, a senior developer relations engineer at Google, spoke as part of Medium Day, a conference hosted by the online content platform. Angular maintains a blog on Medium. He shared how Angular has improved and discussed plans for its future, which includes partial hydration.

In his 1950 paper “Computing Machinery and Intelligence,” Alan Turing famously said, “We can only see a short distance ahead, but we can see plenty there that needs to be done.” He referred to the challenge of developing “machines that can think.”Decades later, we’ve made significant progress in the “plenty” that needs to be done, and we can see a short distance further.

SEATTLE – Thomas Graf, one of the creators of Cilium, sees the cloud native security market changing, with the widespread adoption of containers used for AI APIs and new approaches to microsegmentation. Cilium, a Cloud Native Computing Foundation graduate, is built on eBPF (extended Berkeley Packet Filter). Graf also helped develop NSX and Open vSwitch at Nicira, which VMware acquired. At the heart of NSX is software-defined networking, which turns hardware switches into software.

Last month, Google announced that some of the engineers on its Material Web Components (MWC) team had been reassigned to work on its internal framework, Wiz. That’s led to questions about ongoing support for Angular Material. MWC is a library of reusable, customizable UI components built on the web component standard. The components follow Google’s Material Design guidelines, making it easier to create a consistent look for web applications.

In my first review of Tauri in January 2022, I noted that it is a framework to build desktop applications with any frontend framework and a Rust core. Since the Rust language has significantly advanced in popularity over the past two and half years, I thought it was worth revisiting Tauri again — especially since it recently introduced version 2.

Site reliability engineers (SREs) rely on service-level objectives (SLOs) to set the standards that the service-level indicators (SLIs) of an application must meet. These can include metrics like availability, response time, error rate or any other relevant indicator. Using SLOs is not new; they have long been used to align technical operations with business goals.

Cloud services are all over the place. For most people, the usual options (such as Google, iCloud, etc.) are fine. For others who demand more security and control, there are additional options, such as Nextcloud. Nextcloud is an open source platform that includes all the features you’ve grown accustomed to (such as files, editors, chat, version control and much more) and can be deployed to hardware on your network.
