A higher order function can take another function as a parameter and may return a function, which simplifies certain programming tasks in Scala.

Broadcast joins are an optimization strategy in Spark that allows for faster join operations by broadcasting a smaller dataset across executors.

OpenDylan 2025.1 introduces a new LSP plug-in for syntax highlighting and code-completion, restoring clarity with its project management tool, now named deft.

The goal of the Candy Machine problem is to differentiate between the definition of a computation and its execution through functional programming.

Python is amazing, but it’s painfully slow. Mojo, launched by Modular AI, provides the same syntax but enhances speed and optimizes for GPU usage.

"Tablets are designed to support flexible and dynamic data distribution across the cluster. Based on Raft, this new approach provides new levels of elasticity..."

Sangria GraphQL offers a robust implementation for Scala, enabling developers to create expressive and efficient GraphQL APIs while leveraging Scala's type system and functional programming principles.

In Go 1.22, the traditional 'for' loop gotcha with sharing loop variables is resolved, ensuring variable isolation across iterations for better code reliability.

Veracruz introduces a framework for designing privacy-preserving delegated computations among mutually mistrusting parties, leveraging isolates to safeguard computations from interference.

An Efficient Chain-Linking Algorithm embodies how creativity thrived in the early days of computer vision when memory constraints innovatively shaped problem-solving and advancements.

In evaluating LLM-generated mutations, we designed metrics that encompass cost, usability, and behavior, recognizing that higher mutation scores don't guarantee higher quality.

Gemini 1.5 Pro displays substantial accuracy gains with increasing demonstrating examples, achieving notable improvements across various datasets, especially in medical QA tasks.

The results suggest that 4-bit integer quantization provides the best balance between model performance and size, outperforming half-precision models despite having fewer parameters.

To streamline and standardize the automated evaluation procedure, we translated the native assertions in MCEVAL to LuaUnit-based assertions, improving consistency across benchmarks.
