Array Data Structure

We believe microservices shouldn't be the default and that companies should start with monoliths until reality actually demands they scale and shift from one node to a …

We all know JSON. But you might not know that it stands for JavaScript Object Notation. JSON.org says it best, "It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate." { "foo": "bar" } It truly is easy. Nearly every language supports JSON either directly or through popular packages/libraries. This list includes things like C, Java, C#, Rust, Lisp, etc., but also more obscure…

v4.17.0 For this release, 319 changes landed. In addition to the 168 feature additions and 57 fixes listed below there were 12 refactoring changes, 13 documentation improvements and 56 chores. High...

In this blog post, we explore how we can test that complicated TypeScript types work as expected. To do that, we need assertions at the type level and other tools.

Project link: https://github.com/workofart/ml-by-hand I recently started working on a project called ML by Hand, which is a machine learning library that I built using just Python and NumPy. Afterwards, I trained various models (classical ones like CNN, ResNet, RNN, LSTM, and more modern architectures like Transformers and GPT) using this...

I am always excited to know more about some exciting programming languages that are very different from what I have learned in Python, Java, C, C++, etc. Maybe some of you, know about this language…

How Better Binary Quantization works in Lucene and Elasticsearch.

Current quantum computers are prone to error. IBM's latest Heron machine uses software and hardware to get better results

How to draw text to a Vulkan renderpass without binding a single texture

Over the course of the past week, I had a chance to write some brand new PHP code and I took the opportunity to try writing in a (mostly) purely functional style. The experience turned out to be ve…

Global file systems aggregate data into a single hybrid cloud from multiple locations using object storage with access that satisfies traditional application needs, like file locking

We look at the use of vector data in AI and how vector databases work, plus vector embedding, the challenges for storage of vector data and the key suppliers of vector database products

A Pascal-like scientific programming language, Blaze, is described. Blaze contains array arithmetic, forall loops, and APL-style accumulation operators, which allow natural expression of fine grained parallelism. It also employs an applicative or functional procedure invocation mechanism, which makes it easy for compilers to extract coarse grained parallelism using machine specific program restructuring. Thus Blaze…

As part of implementing the WebAssembly garbage collection proposal in Wasmtime,which is an ongoing process, we've overhauled the stack map infrastructure inCranelift. This post will explain what stack maps are, why we needed to changeth...
