Earlier this week, Google, Cloudflare and AWS defended against the largest DDOS attack error, receiving 398, 201 and 155 million RPS respectively.
The technical details of these are fascinating! 📖👇

Happy to share details about Stable Signature, an invisible watermarking technique to distinguish images created by open source generative AI models, from FAIR &INRIA. It's another step towards building tools for safety and responsibility in generative AI.

🚀📢 GPT models have blown our minds with their astonishing capabilities. But, do they truly acquire the ability to perform reasoning tasks that humans find easy to execute? NO⛔️
We investigate the limits of Transformers *empirically* and *theoretically* on compositional tasks🔥

For those curious about Martin @Odersky's talk given at the @scalarconf
Here are the slides: github.com/lampepfl/async/bl…
Today's @scalarconf keynote by @odersky showed how tomorrow's Scala would change.
It's hard to summarize all the information we got. Let's leave it as "the future will be interesting".

How to start with FP? Start with small things. Pipe and Either instead of exceptions. Soon you will get the aha-moment. Yes, it can be hard, but it's worth it. After a while, you will wonder how you could write any code without that. Feel free to ask.

Will be speaking at @scalarconf about end to end, full-stack apps in #Scala 3:
- how Typelevel libs work together
- how to design full-stack apps for no headaches
- how to add features fast
- how to keep the same mental model for both backend and frontend
- building, deploying

We’re excited to welcome @rockthejvm as the next #Scalarconf speaker! 😀
Daniel will be talking about a blueprint for building end-to-end, full-stack apps in Scala 3 using the Typelevel stack.

TIL the French government has built a Design System called DSFR, and a #React UI Kit based on that design system. The idea is to provide a consistent UX across 20,000 websites, and to reduce development costs for the State. Great initiative! react-dsfr-components.etalab…

TypeScript's type system is crazy advanced. We can even build entire programming languages on the type level.
I built a whole Assembly interpreter in type annotations and it's cursed lol.
