A couple of weeks ago I watched a fascinating Zoom call hosted by Xu Hao , Thoughtworks's Head of Technology in China. He showed an example of how he uses ChatGPT to help him code in a self-testing style. His initial prompt primes the LLM with an implementation strategy (chain of thought prompting). His prompt also asks for an implementation plan rather than code (general knowledge prompting).

Every time I hear about software maintenance as a distinct activity, I cringe. That’s because it is based on the outdated notion that first software is developed, then it is maintained. But that is not how software development works today. Software development does not have the two phases development and maintenance – it is a continuous process.

We’ve all heard the buzzwords to describe new supply chain trends: resiliency, sustainability, AI, machine learning. But what do these really mean today? Over the past few years, manufacturing has had to adapt to and overcome a wide variety of supply chain trends and disruptions to stay as stable as possible. Stability has become key in this post-COVID world, and will remain key moving forward.

My colleague Julien Deswaef recently compared engagement data for my Twitter and Mastodon posts. From this we can see that boosts and comments are very similar. Twitter does get significantly more likes, but considering I have nearly 20 times more Twitter followers than Mastodon, it’s a remarkably small difference.

I really enjoyed reading Algorithmic Trading: A Practitioner’s Guide by Jeffrey M. Bacidore. Before starting, I imagined it would cover various strategies for trading in the markets, along the lines of “buy on this condition, sell on this condition” But that is not what this book covers. What trade to make is always a given, typically from a portfolio manager.

Privacy is always incredibly important, especially with visual media where you may not have the permission of individuals in the video. If you’re filming something in public, it’s likely you’ll catch someone’s face who simply doesn’t want or need to be identified. This recently got me to thinking: what’s the easiest way to blur faces in a video via command line?

Getting off of Hadoop is a critical objective for organizations, with data executives well aware of the significant benefits of doing so. The problem is, there are few options available that minimize the risk to the business during the migration process and that’s one of the reasons why many organizations are still using Hadoop today. By migrating to the data lakehouse, you can get immediate benefits from day one using Dremio’s phased migration approach.

We have recently discovered the first-ever evidence that attackers are exploiting Kubernetes (K8s) Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) in the wild to create backdoors. The attackers also deployed DaemonSets to take over and hijack resources of the K8s clusters they attack. Our research suggests that this campaign is actively targeting at least 60 clusters in the wild.
