Let’s understand more about the benefits of upgrading to HTTP/2 and how it can impact consumers of your application or service.

The anxiety of deployments is real. Let's take a stab at understanding the human emotions related to deployment and learn best practices to minimize the fear.

While everyone is busy over-analyzing how to integrate AI into their operations, they’re ignoring the most powerful resource at their disposal—the AI itself. Generative AI models aren’t just tools you deploy after you’ve figured out a strategy. They can help you create the strategy. If you’re wondering where AI can add value, why not simply ask it?

Any software product, upon gaining its first users, faces deployment issues, which are primarily addressed by deploying multiple environments.

An altcoin is essentially a token that belongs to an underlying protocol, application, or another form of cryptocurrency project.

First, I couldn’t write because of AI, and now, I have to prove that I’m not using AI to write.

It wasn’t one big, dramatic moment. It was a series of mini breakthroughs—each conversation peeling back another layer, leading me further down the rabbit hole.

The “.com” domain remains the top pick for new and burgeoning startups. That’s according to data collected by HackerNoon from its Startups of The Year 2023 contest. 

Startups of the Year 2023 ran from May 2023 to January 2024. More than 30,000 startups were nominated, and more than 624,000 votes were cast. Discord Development received 93,025 more than the other industries combined. Technology related to religion received 175 votes.

Startup of the Year Voting closed after a 6 month run from June 2022 to January 2023. On Valentine’s Day, the startup of the year winners were announced and we open sourced this startup voting data if anyone would like to use it. By digging into the aggregate vote count each city’s startups earned, we can approximate the HackerNoon community’s interest for startups in...

This article discusses the critical functions of blockchain APIs and RPC nodes in facilitating dApp development. It compares centralized solutions like Infura and Alchemy with decentralized alternatives like dRPC and Pocket Network, emphasizing the trade-offs between convenience and decentralization in blockchain connectivity.

Meta has a well-defined career structure for software engineers, ranging from E3 (entry-level) to E10 (Engineering Fellow). Each level specifies responsibilities and compensation, promoting clarity and growth. The article provides insights into each level, the overall compensation structure, and Meta's core values that shape employee performance and development.

Kubernetes controllers use Informers to monitor the desired and actual states of objects efficiently by caching resource information. Unlike raw watch commands, which lack caching and may miss events during network disruptions, Informers provide real-time updates and an in-memory cache. SharedInformers enable multiple controllers to share a single watch on resources, reducing overhead and synchronization issues. Key components include Reflector, Delta FIFO queues, and...

The Comparison with SKD and ARD section reveals that NEO-KD consistently outperforms existing self-distillation methods like SKD and ARD in multi-exit networks. While SKD and ARD rely on the last exit for knowledge distillation, NEO-KD utilizes a comprehensive approach across all exits, enhancing performance. In the Implementations of Stronger Attacker Algorithms section, various advanced adversarial attack strategies are tailored for multi-exit networks, including the...

The Comparison with Recent Defense Methods for Single-Exit Networks section evaluates NEO-KD against the TEAT defense method, which has been adapted for multi-exit networks. Using max-average attack on CIFAR-10/100 datasets, results show that NEO-KD outperforms TEAT methods (PGD-TE and TRADES-TE) in terms of adversarial test accuracy. This underscores the importance of developing dedicated adversarial defense techniques for multi-exit networks rather than relying on adaptations...

The Discussions on Performance Degradation at Later Exits section highlights that later exits in NEO-KD often exhibit lower adversarial test accuracy compared to earlier exits. This is attributed to adversarial examples targeting later exits incurring higher cumulative losses, leading to their reduced performance. To mitigate this issue, implementing an ensemble strategy, as discussed in the context of budgeted prediction setups, can enhance the effectiveness...

The Hyperparameter Tuning section details the critical role of the hyperparameters α, β, and γ in the NEO-KD objective function. Extreme values can hinder adversarial training, with optimal values for α and β found to be (3, 1), achieving the highest adversarial test accuracy against both max-average and average attacks. The exit-balancing parameter γ is set to [1, 1, 1, 1.5, 1.5, 1.5, 1.5],...

It's hard to do benchmarks for databases, but it's harder to do comparisons on their pricing. There are 3 major things you need to consider: Considerations: storage cost, compaction, and cost of data. Part 1: Comparing the pricing models of modern data warehouses.
