The process efficiency of executing a story on a Scrum team is the most important metric for team performance, because a team can easily double velocity in one sprint by driving process efficiency up over 50%.

Poodle is a vulnerability found in late 2014, and it is still occasionally seen during penetration tests. The vulnerability allows an attacker with a man-in-the-middle position to downgrade a secure connection between a client and a server to the vulnerable SSLv3. After the connection is downgraded, the attacker can proceed to perform the padding oracle attack, recover known plaintext, and decrypt the ciphertext.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

We all know that a business needs to impress the target market if it’s going to be successful. You’re competing for the attention of consumers that are potential clients for your company. Your industry might be crowded with rival businesses that offer the same or similar services to your company, but the thing that defines every business is its brand.

A deep dive into model interpretation as a theoretical concept and a high-level overview of Skater. Over the years, machine learning (ML) has come a long way, from its existence as experimental research in a purely academic setting to wide industry adoption as a means for automating solutions to real-world problems. But oftentimes, these algorithms are still perceived as alchemy because of the lack of understanding of the inner workings of these model (see Ali Rahimi, NIPS '17 ).

Your business can be the tightest and most impressively run ship in the world. It’s likely you’re working towards this end. However, without the power of a customer and client base behind you, you’ll agree that things will likely not last very long. This means that no matter how good your product is, you need someone to buy it. While it’s possible to make the most perfect product in the world and price it such that only one customer justifies the entire cost of your firm, it’s statistically unl

As America struggles to keep tabs on consumer credit scores in the tumultuous wake of last year’s Equifax breach , China is preparing to flip the switch on a new type of credit score. In 2020, Alibaba, Tencent, and Baidu, China’s most popular social networks, will be required to include all users in social-credit systems unique to their platforms. And each Chinese citizen using these networks will be given a credit score based on his or her online behavior.

Multi-tenant architecture allows software vendors to realize tremendous efficiencies by maintaining a single application stack instead of separate database instances while meeting data privacy needs. When you use a data warehouse to power your multi-tenant analytics, the proper approach is vital. Multi-tenant analytics is NOT the primary use case with traditional data warehouses, causing data security challenges.

Having a business partner can be a really great thing, as essentially it’s an extra hand to help manage your business. Sometimes if it’s small enough, you can do things on your own, but the bigger you start to expand, the more help you will need as things will get a lot busier, and at times, chaotic. We often wish that we could clone ourselves, but with a partner, you don’t need to.

Comcast’s system of storing schemas and metadata enables data scientists to find, understand, and join data of interest. In the olden days of data science, one of the rallying cries was the democratization of data. No longer were data owners at the mercy of enterprise data warehouses (EDWs) and extract, transform, load (ETL) jobs, where data had to be transformed into a specific schema (“schema on write”) before it could be stored in the enterprise data warehouse and made available for use in re
