When it comes to measuring developer productivity, there is little consensus and there are far more questions than answers. The ability to stay focused on the task at hand, make meaningful progress, and feel good at the end of a day’s work make a real difference in developers’ satisfa...

Programmers choose Rust for its memory safety guarantees and fearless concurrency, enabling them to write efficient and reliable code without sacrificing performance. It also boasts a vibrant community and an extensive ecosystem of libraries and frameworks. Polars The ability to process an...

GitHub Copilot intentionally severs the relationship between creator and creation. This purposefully, yet painstaking act is accomplished by 1) stripping the humanity that’s uniquely part of the creator to make the creation and then 2) monetizing the creation immediately. Expedi...

Have you ever opened an app on your phone and received a prompt to update to a new version? These prompts most likely direct you towards an app store where you then download the latest version. As you download the new version, you might notice a new layout, button, or piece of functionality. In soft...

I’m mad at node libraries, and I’m just not going to take it anymore! I’ve committed a lot of attention to Node.js and TypeScript over the last couple of years; I even built a startup with React and Express on it. In a lot of other languages creating a library is as simple as in...

I recently stumbled upon John Siracusa’s legendary Mac OS X reviews for the first time. If you’re not in the loop, these were astonishingly detailed technical reviews of Apple’s major Mac OS X releases between 1999 and 2014. According to Ars Technica, where these were publi...

This article will guide you through creating your first application that uses AI, to see just how simple yet powerful it is. We will create an application that takes user input and generates a short poem using that input. Without AI, this would be a very complex task. For this article we&rsquo...

The coding community loves one thing overwhelmingly, but begrudgingly admits: a shortcut. The shortcuts show up as object, function and variable naming schemes and conventions. The shortcuts show up as time complexity optimization hacks. Or the shortcut shows up as a beta software product or platfor...

Large Language Models (LLMs) are known for their extensive computational requirements. Typically, the size of a model is calculated by multiplying the number of parameters (size) by the precision of these values (data type). However, to save memory, weights can be stored using lower-precision data t...

Recent advancements in weight quantization allow us to run massive large language models on consumer hardware, like a LLaMA-30B model on an RTX 3090 GPU. This is possible thanks to novel 4-bit quantization techniques with minimal performance degradation, like GPTQ, GGML, and NF4. I...

Introduction Collaboration and open-source sharing are at the heart of innovation in the field of software development. Platforms such as GitHub have evolved into important centres for developers to exchange code, collaborate on projects, and contribute to the worldwide coding community. The rece...

As a Game dev you might someday need to share your project with the general audience or collaborate with your game partner or if you are working with a client to do his project then you would need a version control system. There is a Unity official Version Control but that is expensive while Gihu...
