26 As AI transforms hardware and network infrastructures, one small thing at a time, an equally profound change is taking place in test and measurement With the advent of AI, test and measurement is moving on from its pass-fail era where it could merely detect deviations of predefined thresholds to a more mature one – powered by AI itself – where it can score how well a system is performing.  Vendors are embracing AI to modernize legacy test processes, gain operational efficiency, and save time and resource. Based on our observation, here are three ways vendors in the space are…

The rise of AI-powered coding tools has sparked one of the most debated questions in the tech world today: Are programmers still needed? Over the past two years, tools like GitHub Copilot, Amazon Q Developer, and Codex have entered the daily workflow of software developers across the globe. They write code, fix bugs, suggest logic, and generate entire functions from a single line of instruction. For many, this looks like the beginning of the end for traditional programming roles. But is it really? The answer is more complex than it seems. These tools are not replacing programmers; they are reshaping…

If you have ever looked at a professional spreadsheet, you must have noticed titles spanning across multiple columns. That is the most essential and widely used example of a popular Excel function called Merge. Continuing our Excel 101 series, we shall explore the Cell Merge function today. We shall understand what it allows us to do, how to use it, and what the absolute essentials are that we should keep in mind while using it. Because anyone who has used cell merge will tell you that more often than not, its use gives you a solid pushback from Excel. Starting…

One of the purported advantages of self-driving car tech is that every car can learn from one vehicle’s mistakes. Here’s how Waymo puts it on its website: “The Waymo Driver learns from the collective experiences gathered across our fleet, including previous hardware generations.”But in Austin, Waymo’s vehicles struggled for months to learn how to stop for school buses as drivers picked up and dropped off children. An official with the Austin Independent School District (AISD) alleged that the vehicles had, in at least 19 instances, “illegally and dangerously” passed the district’s school buses while their red lights were flashing and…

Transitions of any scale are often met with a mix of excitement and trepidation. One year ago, when we embarked on the journey to migrate the Black Belt Academy to our new Learning Management System (LMS), MindTickle, the stakes were high. We weren’t just moving files; we were migrating the learning legacy of over 90,000 partner individuals and protecting 300,000 learning records. Today, as we celebrate our one-year anniversary on the platform, those initial “migration jitters” have been replaced by a narrative of strategic collaboration, AI-driven innovation, and a transformed learning experience. A Strategic Alliance for Global Reach Our success…

In today’s rapidly evolving job market, technical expertise alone is not enough. Employers increasingly seek well-rounded candidates who combine strong technical skills with essential human skills—such as communication, collaboration, adaptability, and emotional intelligence. This need is even more critical in light of the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) and automation, which are transforming workplaces and reshaping job roles. Human skills: The critical edge in an AI-driven world While AI excels at automating routine tasks and analyzing vast amounts of data, it cannot replicate uniquely human abilities like empathy, creativity, critical thinking, compassion, and interpersonal communication. These human skills, or soft…

1/29/18 3:20 PM · 1 min read In this Swift tutorial, I’d like to give you an example about getting and parsing JSON data using URLSession and Codable protocol. DependenciesFirst of all just a few words about dependencies. From Swift 4 you don’t need any dependency to parse JSON data, because there are built-in protocols to take care of everything. If you are still using some kind of 3rd-party you should definitely ditch it for the sake of simplicity. By the way before you add any external dependency into your project, please think twice. 🤔NetworkingIf your task is simply to load…

Posted by Robert Clifford, Developer Relations Engineer and Manjeet Rulhania, Software EngineerA pillar of the Android ecosystem is our shared commitment to user trust. As the mobile landscape has evolved, so does our approach to protecting sensitive information. In Android 17, we’re introducing a suite of new location privacy features designed to give users more control and provide developers elegant solutions for data minimization and product safety. Our strategy focuses on introducing new tools to balance high-quality experiences with robust privacy protections, and improving transparency for users to help manage their data.Introducing the location button: simplified access for one time…

Device fabricationThe qubit device was fabricated on an isotopically purified 28Si buffer layer (20 nm thick), epitaxially grown at 380 °C via ultrahigh-vacuum electron-beam deposition on a p-type natural silicon substrate (50–100 Ω cm). This layer maintains a 29Si concentration below 130 ppm, effectively isolating qubits from the nuclear spin bath of the natural silicon substrate and enhancing spin coherence times. Using STM-assisted hydrogen depassivation lithography at 77 K (Scienta Omicron INFINITY SPM Lab), we deterministically patterned the hydrogen-passivated silicon surface with atomic precision. The exposed regions were then dosed with phosphine (PH3) at 5 × 10−7 mbar for 5 min (room temperature), followed by thermal incorporation at…

Modern applications must handle thousands (or even millions) of requests simultaneously and maintain high performance and responsiveness. Traditional synchronous programming often becomes a bottleneck because tasks execute sequentially and block system resources. Even the thread pool approach has its limitations, since we cannot create millions of threads and still achieve fast task switching. This is where asynchronous programming comes into play. In this guide, you’ll learn the fundamentals of asynchronous programming in Java, explore basic concurrency concepts, and dive deep into CompletableFuture, one of the most powerful tools used in Java application development services. What Is Asynchronous Programming? Asynchronous programming…
