You have a third-party provider that you need to obtain news information from and the only API they have for this is a POST with a request body, yet this clearly should be a GET process since the API is simply retrieving data and nothing transactional is happening.

In this post, I'm going to outline some good practices I've learned along the way and (hopefully) convince you why you should consider using a logging framework immediately instead of console.log statements.

A note to preface: you can find the project repository here. The origin story After a while developing software in Java, I was intrigued by all the praise of Kotlin and also interested in Kotlin/Native as a way to develop applications that don't require a VM to run. Inspired by this Golang implementation of traceroute, I settled on trying my hand at implementing traceroute with Kotlin/Native. tracerte is already available on every operating system, so why the hell would I rewrite it? Good qu

NeMo is a toolkit provided by NVIDIA that allows you to use modules (reusable components) for a variety of AI tasks. Components like encoders, decoders, loss functions and more.

Very soon Fly will become a contender to fully replace Heroku and will be much more simple and easy to use than something like Kubernetes or any of AWS's offerings. Right now, it's great for hobbyists or a team with one or two developers.

In this article, we will explore the usefulness of GPT-3 for developers by examining its performance in handling three common challenges that they may encounter in their work. These challenges include generating new code, explaining unfamiliar code constructs, and deciphering unusual error messages.

The what could be described as a cross-platform solution for mobile development. But, there is a big difference between a cross-platform solution and Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile.

Building full-stack monorepo's doesn't have to be a headache. With the T3 stack we can quickly spin up full-stack, typesafe Next.js projects.

Package management can be something of a headache, but it doesn't have to be that way. Here's some tips to get you on your way with Maven Central.

Unit tests for APIs can sometimes provide little to no value, so the next logical step is often to write integration tests. You don’t want to touch live data though, and want tests to make assertions against actual (un-mocked) service logic. The following is an approach to do just that.

The goal of risk management is to minimize risk in a technical project by minimizing the probability of failure and minimizing the impact of failure.

If you've heard a lot about AI and machine learning, but don't understand it, this month's episode is for you.

Many seem to think that the only proper way to create a phone app is by engineering it natively. In this post, I break down why React Native is a great way to build an app.

Migrations allow us to describe how to adjust the data model of an existing database. They make a scripted, surgical change to a database rather than replacing it entirely and blowing away any content changes.

Taking the time to write meaningful comments while providing feedback to your coworkers can go a long way. Yves shares some of the principles he follows to articulate positive criticism during code reviews.

2020 was a hell of a year: A global pandemic, a fraught US election, and ... Microservices! 😬

Here are some things that might be useful for someone else who has experience with RX and starts using LiveData for the first time.

Our project began with a small ask: build a small Python back-end using AWS Lambda and API Gateway (with just a handful of endpoints to support a few pages) and use Serverless [https://serverless.com/] to manage the Cloud Formation setup. Not very involved, not much code, not even much configuration for the deploy. Next came authentication. In pursuing the joint dreams of DRTW ("don't reinvent the wheel") and WALCAP ("write as little code as possible"), we selected AWS Cognito over other opti

This tutorial will describe how to... install Rust, create a new project and manage dependencies, Set up a simple web server, and compile the app and deploy to a virtual server. I'll be working on Ubuntu 20.04 but most of the setup should be the same on macOS or a different flavor of Linux.

Uploading files to S3 directly from the browser is a great way to increase performance by removing the need to process and then re-upload files from your own server.

Recently, we've used a few of AWS's services to create full integration and delivery solutions. In this post we'll look at how we've used AWS CodeBuild and CodePipeline to create a cost effective, performant and code driven end-to-end CI/CD solution.

Our mobile devices and the apps that run on them have a unique insight into our lives. We use them for communication, entertainment, shopping, photography, navigation, and myriad other purposes. Consequently, apps have access to a great deal of information about our preferences, our contacts, where we go, what we buy, and who we are. As app developers, we need to be cognizant of the information being handled by our apps and to safeguard it accordingly. The protection of sensitive information is

The following article was created from a 2021 CppCon talk given by Jonah Jolley. One of our clients has a software product that must comply with federal regulations. For them, they must submit technical documents to a governing body. However, in their case, the codebase didn’t accurately reflect what was documented. This led to an unmitigated, unsafe condition. To solve this issue, we used Clang LibASTMatchers to check the codebase and ensure they were indeed compliant. Why Compliance in Cod

To help others as they make their way through this process, we decided to document and release our findings as a FreeRTOS tutorial for developers. Here is how to get started with ESP32 on Linux.

Docker is a helpful tool for both developers and ops. It can simplify both the development of an application as well as deployment and management of it. In this post we are going to explore a common pitfall related to developing an application in Docker on the Mac and see what we can do to mitigate the issue and work as productively as possible. Developing in Docker Developing in Docker has a number of advantages over developing directly on your Mac. Before we begin, let’s remind ourselves of a
