"Ultimately, the more cooling holes, the lower the temperature of the disc," Miller said. "You have mechanical wear between the disc and the pad, and 350˚ Celsius and below you have a lot of dust, which physically wears the disc. At higher temperature ranges, the dust between the pad and the disc creates friction. That results in less wear and less impact."

The team relies on pair and mob programming with Test-Driven Development (TDD), and all tasks require at least two team members to ensure shared responsibility.

Red Hat is introducing a new version of RHEL, designed for business developers who can access the platform directly without traditional IT involvement.

Meta has begun rewriting its mobile messaging infrastructure in Rust, gradually replacing a legacy C codebase that engineers say had become increasingly difficult to maintain and frustrating to work with.

SQLite runtime support allows users to run workflows easily without extensive database infrastructure. This emphasizes practical solutions in handling workflow executions.

Nemo's latest task was to add a toggle to the dashboard. He delivered an abstracted, modular event-handling engine with algebraic constraints and a recursive effect system that reifies toggle intentions into a monadic signal flow.

Documentation isn’t just a formality; it’s essential for understanding how software is assembled, ensuring we can reproduce any version of any product at any time.

When developers use AI coding tools, they may inadvertently create security vulnerabilities. Nearly 40% of AI-generated code contains issues, which can have serious implications.

We observe noticeable growth spikes in AI-generated code soon after key generative AI releases such as GitHub Copilot, the original ChatGPT, and GPT-4.0, highlighting how breakthroughs in LLMs prompt rapid uptake by developers worldwide.

Researchers found that verified extensions in Visual Studio Code, Visual Studio, and IntelliJ IDEA can retain their checkmark after being modified, allowing malicious versions to maintain trusted status.

The delicate nature of quantum computers presents significant barriers due to errors, which are critical for progressing applications in finance, drug discovery, and materials science.

Kickstart your coding skills with GitHub Copilot Adventures, a hands-on playground of 'choose-your-own-adventure' coding challenges, guiding users through various levels of AI-assisted tasks.

The VREY platform focuses on processing smart meter measurement data to analyze and bill solar power usage, streamlining billing and payment flows for landlords and tenants.

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff stated that AI now performs up to 50% of all work, especially in key areas like engineering, coding, and customer support.

Major tech companies including Microsoft, Meta, and Intel have laid off tens of thousands of employees, increasingly citing AI automation as a crucial driver for these layoffs.

The new API offering is categorized into PDF Services, Document Generation, eSign, and Embed, providing extensive capabilities for document management and PDF manipulation.

A week ago, three developers suggested that it was time to drop i686 support system-wide. In other words, remove the ability to install and run 32-bit programs on x86.

The Factory Method is a creational design pattern that creates objects with a common interface, making it one of the most widely used design patterns.

Today, the development of contemporary projects involves multiple software tools and platforms rather than relying on one or two programs. These tools combine, overlap, and interact throughout various stages, including analysis, design, rendering, coordination, and construction.

Code Feedback MCP Server provides AI with real-time feedback necessary to ensure that code meets quality standards before it is deployed.

"Anyone can write code sounds good on paper, but when bad code is massively produced, it hurts everyone including those who did not ask for it."

The tension between structure and adaptability isn't just theoretical; it's a foundational dynamic that has shaped industries for decades.

"Ampere gave us a leg up to understand how to best instrument the code, and run it in that setup," remarked Antoine Toulmé, who maintains the OpenTelemetry Collector project while serving as a senior engineering manager at Splunk.

Building for a global audience is no longer a competitive edge-it's a baseline requirement. Users expect localized experiences by default in 2025.

If we lose sight of the non-measurable things, we lose sight of what makes software development successful.

Every software project is like building a small, living ecosystem, where the critical requirement of structured, realistic data is essential from the start.

Being an architect is not just about design; it's about the entire lifecycle of software, collaboration, and making impactful decisions in various systems.

The continued rise of 'vibe coding' reflects a major shift in programming, enabling less experienced developers to realize software ideas, but poses significant risks in code safety.
