Why It’s Time to Ditch PHP for Good?

In the ever-evolving landscape of web development, full-stack developers are presented with a multitude of programming languages and technologies to choose from.

Understanding ArgumentNullException in C#

Understanding ArgumentNullException in C#

What Does "ArgumentNullException" Mean? In layman's terms, an ArgumentNullException occurs when a method expects you to give it something (an argument), but you give it nothing (null).

If you show up without any food, it's like you brought "nothing" to the table. The host might be frustrated because the event relies on everyone contributing. Similarly, when a method expects an argument and you pass…

Apple Pushes Ahead with Tabletop Home Device in Shift to Robotics

Apple Pushes Ahead with Tabletop Home Device in Shift to Robotics

Apple Inc., seeking new sources of revenue, is moving forward with development of a pricey tabletop home device that combines an iPad-like display with a robotic limb. The company now has a team of several hundred people working on the device, which uses a thin robotic arm to move around a large screen, according to people with knowledge of the matter. The product, which relies on actuators to tilt the display up and down and make it spin 360 degrees, would offer a twist on home products like Amazon.com Inc.’s Echo Show 10 and Meta Platforms Inc.’s discontinued Portal.

DEV Search: 20x Latency Reduction By Layering Algolia On Top of Postgres

DEV Search: 20x Latency Reduction By Layering Algolia On Top of Postgres

At DEV, our commitment to open-source development drives our decision-making process, especially regarding the tools and technologies we use. Our platform, which we open source as Forem, reflects this ethos. Forem is an open-source Rails application designed to foster community and content sharing. As a backstop for this approach, the base search is implemented in Postgres to serve small and straightforward use cases. However, to serve a high-traffic global network, it is not an entirely sufficient experience. Latency is the only objective measure of user experience. If a request loads slower, users are going to leave and/or lose trust in…
