Introduction. In the list of activities in the Scrum software development life cycle ranked by their popularity amongst developers, “attending meetings” is perhaps locked in a perpetual battle only with “writing documentation” for the position of last place. It’s quite understandable: meetings can easily become very boring – especially when a participant does not have anything to contribute to the meeting at hand – and are often perceived as having little value (if at all) compared t

“Land never deceives” is a common slogan of farmers around Africa. Many people go into farming entirely, or as a side endeavor, with a high certainty they’ll make money and produce more good for all. And when technology is added to the mix, opportunities multiply. Having the largest area of uncultivated arable land in the world, sub-Saharan Africa, with a young population—nearly 60% is under 25—and a wealth of natural resources, has unparalleled advantages that could double or even triple its cu

With our mysterious, unsustainable and psychological attachment to pets, combined with a boom in pet ownership since those lonely pandemic times, veterinary practices have come under increasing pressure. Pet ownership has increased (56 to 70% U.S. household penetration in the last 35 years). But, there are not enough vets. To meet demand, a vet currently needs to see more than 32 patients a day, and by 2030, the U.S. will need nearly 41,000 additional veterinarians on current trends.

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.

Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA) , or integrated circuits sold off-the-shelf, are a hot topic in tech. Because they’re relatively affordable and can be programmed for a range of use cases, they’ve caught on particularly in the AI and machine learning space where they’ve been used to accelerate the training of AI systems. The global FPGA market size could reach $14 billion by 2028, according to one estimate, up from $6 billion in 2021.

During the discussion, I heard something pretty shocking: They were looking seriously at getting rid of the project management office (PMO) altogether. Even more disturbing: I don’t see this as an aberration. In a significant number of businesses, PMOs are either being relegated to a lower-level status, they’re being worked around instead of with, or they’re creating outright barriers to progress.
