One of the coolest things about being a software developer is that you often know what’s behind the curtain. To some extent, at least. Working in tech gives you the chance to know first-hand what a neural network is, or what makes quantum computing so significant, or how...
Everyone wants to get their hands on AI tools, and employees in government agencies are no exception. Still, stakes are far higher for governments when it comes to security, privacy, and protecting the public. As a means of overcoming these challenges, OpenAI has rolled out...
Startup times for Java applications would be improved through a proposed API for stable values, which are objects that hold immutable data. An OpenJDK Java Enhancement Proposal (JEP) for a preview of stable values notes that stable values are treated as constants by the...
