Teachings from the old world. When I started my career in IT as a software tester, the first mantra that was drilled into my brain was “the earlier you find an issue, the cheaper it is to fix”. For a long time, this, and the “quality is free” mantra, have been the foundation and justification for the world of Quality Assurance. However, over the last 20 years the world of software development has drastically changed with Agile, DevOps, CI/CD, cloud, etc.

In algorithmic investing, investors use a company’s metrics to decide whether to participate in a deal. But when the art of choice is factored out, it becomes more difficult to perform deep due diligence on founders who may be about to receive millions of dollars via a wire transfer. In practice, attempts to remove bias can create newer, blind spots that are harder to identify.

Citus is a great extension for scaling out Postgres databases horizontally. You can use Citus either on the cloud on Azure or you can download Citus open source and install it wherever. In this blog post, we will focus on Citus open source packaging and installation. When you go to the Citus download page to download the Citus packages—or you visit the Citus open source docs —many of you jump straight to the install instructions and the particular OS you’re looking for.

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.

Summer 2021 was coming to a close and a new work project was starting up. I was looking forward to it, but at-at the same time I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect. It looked like there would be elements of the type of work I regularly do, but also pieces a bit outside of what I’m usually called in to help with. As the project unfolded, it turned out to be less and less like a typical engagement.

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.

Pay per click (PPC) ads can be incredibly valuable, allowing you to generate a reliable stream of traffic to any webpage you choose (and hopefully increasing your sales in the process). But there’s no guarantee you’re going to see a positive ROI by yourself. Outsourcing your Amazon PPC ad management , Google PPC ad management, or PPC ads with other platforms could be the best move to boost your profitability and save you time.
