Deploying modern web apps – with all the provisions needed to be fast and secure while easily updateable – has become so hard that many developers don’t dare do it without a PaaS (platform-as-a-service). But that’s ridiculous. Nobody should have to pay orders of magnitude more for basic computing just to make deployment friendly and usable. That’s a job for open source, and Rails 8 is ready to solve it.

It’s much easier to change and improve how we communicate when we understand why we speak and behave the way we do. That’s why the most effective presenters and communicators often have a strong sense of their identities and a level of self-awareness acquired through reflecting on their beliefs, attitudes, and behavioral patterns. To become more aware of our own communication styles, and how they change due to context, you can do some inner work.

However, a new study suggests that the timing of these expressions can make a big difference. Through two experiments and an analysis of a top hospital’s intensive care units, researchers found that when you express gratitude to others before they engage in a distressing task it helps counteract some of the negative emotions associated with the task.

In the field of generative AI , latency and cost pose significant challenges. The commonly used large language models (LLMs) often process text sequentially, predicting one token at a time in an autoregressive manner. This approach can introduce delays, resulting in less-than-ideal user experiences. Additionally, the growing demand for AI-powered applications has led to a high volume of calls to these LLMs, potentially exceeding budget constraints and creating financial pressures for organizatio
