My First Pull Request At Age 14

Age is not a barrier for contributing to open source. My name is Neil Naveen, and I’m a 14-year-old middle schooler who’s been coding for seven years. I have also been coding in Golang for two years. Coding isn’t my only passion, though. I’ve been practicing Jiu-Jitsu for four years and have competed in multiple competitions. I’m passionate about coding and Jiu-Jitsu, as they teach me important life lessons. Codecombat I started coding on Codecombat, which taught me many fundamental coding skills. One of the most exciting moments in my coding journey was when I ranked 16th out of around 50,000 players in…

10 Ways Wikimedia Does Developer Advocacy

It’s important to grow and nurture your open source community. Find out how Wikimedia does it. In a previous article, I wrote about Wikipedia’s rich history as a repository of open knowledge. Supporting Wikipedia as a platform ensures that the information it contains is available to everyone, but it’s a big job. In this article, I’m going to introduce you to the vastness of Wikipedia’s technology landscape and the technical community behind it.

3 Ways To Screw Up A Multicloud Deployment

We’re experienced with multicloud, but we’re also making common mistakes. Make sure you plan common services and have all your people on board. I guess I could place some stat here that shows multicloud is the large majority of public cloud deployments out there, but there are lots of other places to see that. We know it’s a common approach for enterprises to move to plural clouds versus single-cloud deployments. Enough said.  The mistakes I see in multicloud deployments are not at all what you would think. You likely believe these errors are related to some complex technology being deployed…

Sentiment Analysis With BigQuery ML

Introduction We recently announced BigQuery support for sparse features which help users to store and process the sparse features efficiently while working with them. That functionality enables users to represent sparse tensors and train machine learning models directly in the BigQuery environment. Being able to represent sparse tensors is a useful feature because sparse tensors are used extensively in encoding schemes like TF-IDF as part of data pre-processing in NLP applications and for pre-processing images with a lot of dark pixels in computer vision applications. There are numerous applications of sparse features such as text generation and sentiment analysis. In…

5 GKE Features To Help You Optimize Your Clusters

In this post, we’ll be discussing 5 features in GKE you can use to optimize your clusters today. To get started with testing these in GKE, check out our interactive tutorials for getting started with standard and autopilot clusters. If you find value from running workloads on Kubernetes clusters in your organization, chances are your footprint will grow – be it through larger clusters or more clusters. Whichever your approach, one thing is certain: you’ll have more resources that you pay for. And you know what they say – more resources, more problems. The more resources you have across clusters,…

The ABCs Of Building Reliable, Scalable, And Maintainable Web Applications – Reliability

Reliability, Scalability, and Maintainability are some of the least understood concepts of application development. Even with little understanding of these topics, many developers use them on a day-to-day basis during their work conversations. A proper and sound understanding of these concepts enables you to make proper use of these terminologies and think effectively to enforce these vital concepts in applications you build. As online applications get more sophisticated, efficient scalability, dependability, and maintainability, become increasingly important to ensure smooth performance and user pleasure. Effectively handling these parts of web app development can be difficult, especially for developers who are new…
