Introduction to SOLID Principles in Java Development

stp2y0 CommentsNews, , , , , , , ,
In the ever-evolving field of software development, one of the biggest challenges is ensuring that code remains clean, maintainable, and scalable as projects grow. This is where the SOLID principles come into play. Coined by Robert C. Martin, also known as Uncle Bob, and later popularized by Michael Feathers, these five principles provide a solid (pun intended) foundation for writing object-oriented code that stands the test of time. But what exactly are the SOLID principles, and why should you, as a Java developer, care about them? In this post, we’ll explore each of these principles, understand their importance, and see…

‘House of the Dragon’ star Tom Glynn-Carney says that Aegon will be fueled by revenge in season 3 after hitting ‘pure rock bottom’

stp2y0 CommentsRAG models
By the end of "House of the Dragon" season two, Aegon Targaryen is at his lowest point. Still, he's on the up-and-up — and by that, we mean sensibly running away from danger, rather than flying toward it on dragonback.In season one, Aegon reluctantly assumed the Iron Throne, set to preside over a brutal succession war caused by his own coronation. Surprisingly, he takes a shine to the role. Still, it doesn't come without personal tragedy: In the season two premiere, two assassins murder Aegon's young son. In episode four, determined to assert himself, he flies to Rook's Rest to…

Watching orders dwindle as China’s housing market slumped, factory owner Zheng Weirong decided to take action and protect his steel business from the real estate downturn.Betting on a tourism revival, he wound down a production line making metal bars in 2021 and shifted investment to producing container-sized cabins, often used as guest houses. The pivot paid off, with demand exploding last year after Chinese travel rebounded following the lifting of pandemic restrictions. Source link lol

Expert on Financial Bubbles Weighs in on AI Industry

stp2y0 CommentsChat-GPT
Spoiler: it's not good.Boom or Bust?It's been a rough week for the tech industry. If the AI bubble hasn't already burst, investors are certainly waking up to the idea that what they've poured their money into may be, in fact, a bubble.Either way, the numbers are bad: the seven biggest tech giants, including Microsoft, Google, and Nvidia, have collectively lost more than $650 billion in market capitalization as of Monday, according to The Wall Street Journal, though they have now begun to rebound somewhat.What this means for the future of AI is unclear, but history may offer us a few…

How short-lived advanced grenade launchers tried — and failed — to field a high-tech version of the conventional rifle attachment

stp2y0 CommentsRAG models
Could high-tech advanced grenade launchers replace conventional rifles for the infantrymen in the battlefields of the near future? Advanced grenade launchers combine a rifle and grenade launcher in one weapon with the rifle acting as backup. This idea can be traced back to 1970, and from then until now, there have been numerous incarnations of the concept.Even just strapping a grenade launcher to a rifle is nothing new – the M203 single-shot grenade launcher attachment for the M16 and M4 has served for decades. However, the difference between the M203 and advanced grenade launchers is substantial.Typically, advanced launchers use smaller…

Simultaneous and Meshfree Topology Optimization with Physics-informed Gaussian Processes

stp2y0 CommentsViral News
[Submitted on 7 Aug 2024] View a PDF of the paper titled Simultaneous and Meshfree Topology Optimization with Physics-informed Gaussian Processes, by Amin Yousefpour and 3 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:Topology optimization (TO) provides a principled mathematical approach for optimizing the performance of a structure by designing its material spatial distribution in a pre-defined domain and subject to a set of constraints. The majority of existing TO approaches leverage numerical solvers for design evaluations during the optimization and hence have a nested nature and rely on discretizing the design variables. Contrary to these approaches, herein we develop a…
