After a hard fast thrust, comes Sun's 1995 release, Java. People's love for Java is abound. This is because of the Java Virtual Machine, which ensures the same Java code can be run on different operating systems and platforms. This made Sun Microsystems’ slogan for Java was “Write Once, Run Everywhere”. The WhORE, Java, runs on different platforms, but programmers write it the same way. Which other programming language is a WORE? Source link lol

The Eternal Truth of Markdown

stp2y0 CommentsRAG modelscoding, computers, machine readable, plaintext, programming, software

Markdown became a core part of how I wrote. The simplicity and flexibility meant I would live the dream of write once, run anywhere. It did lead to some ambiguity, though. Gruber would probably say this is by design. His emphasis throughout the Markdown documentation is on the syntax of Markdown, not—say—the resulting HTML. His Perl script does not support HTML class names or IDs, for example, so you can’t add those to the generated HTML. By the logic of the original Markdown script, if you want complete control over the HTML output, then you’d need to write in HTML.This…

Problem description & analysis: In the following table, value of cell A1 is made up of names of several people and their attendances in four days. For example, c is 1100 expressed in hexadecimal notation, meaning the corresponding person has attendance in the 1st day and the 2nd day and is absent in the 3rd day and the 4th day. We need to find the number of people who has the attendance in the day input in A2. For example, three people are present in the 1st day and two people are present in the 3rd day. Solution: Use SPL…

By 2030, it's predicted that we'll all be content creators. While this might sound like a futuristic fantasy to some, I find it an intriguing prediction. After all, sharing knowledge and experiences is a core human desire. Full disclosure: I wouldn't exactly call myself a wordsmith. For years, my fingers have flown across keyboards crafting code, not catchy headlines. But maybe that's the point. As a seasoned developer, I bring a unique perspective to the content creation table. So, consider this my first tentative step into this exciting new world. I'm here to share my experiences – the triumphs, the…

In the evolving landscape of software development, the transition from monolithic architectures to microservices has become a significant trend. This transformation promises enhanced scalability, flexibility, and maintainability. In this blog, we will delve deep into the intricacies of both architectures, their pros and cons, and provide a detailed roadmap for migrating from a monolithic system to a microservices-based architecture. Understanding Monolithic Architecture A monolithic architecture is a traditional model for the design of a software program. Here, the application is built as a single, unified unit. Typically, a monolithic application consists of: A single codebase: All functionalities are interwoven and…

What is Threads and its use in Node.js

stp2y0 CommentsNewscoding, community, development, engineering, inclusive, javascript, node, programming, software, webdev

In the bustling world of computer science, threads are like tiny, independent workers within a larger workshop, a process. Imagine a single process as a factory. This factory has various tasks to complete, from assembling parts to running quality checks. Threads, on the other hand, are the individual workers on the assembly line. They share the same resources (tools, materials) within the factory (process) but can work on different tasks (instructions) concurrently. What are Threads? Threads are lightweight units of execution within a process. They share the same memory space and resources (like CPU time) of the process they belong…

Understanding @Primary in Spring

stp2y0 CommentsNewscoding, community, development, engineering, inclusive, java, programming, software, spring, springboot

If you read my post about the @Qualifier annotation, you have noticed that defining two beans of the same type can be a challenge. By distinguishing it with a qualifier name, @Qualifier helps Spring determine which bean to inject. The @Primary annotation will help Spring decide which of those same types of beans it should pick primarily. For the bean annotated with the @Primary annotation, the @Qualifier will not be necessary. It is only required for the other bean. Example 1: Using @primary and @Qualifier in Spring Let’s see the example in practice: public interface GreetingService { String greet(); }…

When OpenAI announced GPT-4, its latest large language model, last March, it sent shockwaves through the tech world. It was clearly more capable than anything seen before at chatting, coding, and solving all sorts of thorny problems—including school homework.Anthropic, a rival to OpenAI, announced today that it has made its own AI advance that will upgrade chatbots and other use cases. But although the new model is the world’s best by some measures, it’s more of a step forward than a big leap.Anthropic’s new model, called Claude 3.5 Sonnet, is an upgrade to its existing Claude 3 family of AI…

stp2y0 CommentsNewscoding, community, development, engineering, inclusive, kotlin, multiplatform, opensource, programming, software

Measured now supports tons of Kotlin targets like iOS and all Apple platforms, Android Native, Linux, etc. So you can work with units of measure seamlessly no matter where you app runs. Measured makes units of measure simple by providing intuitive, strongly-typed (i.e. compile-time enforced) units that combine using normal mathematical operations. val velocity = 5 * meters / seconds val acceleration = 9 * meters / (seconds * seconds) val time = 1 * minutes // d = vt + ½at² val distance = velocity * time + 1.0 / 2 * acceleration * time * time println(distance )…
