Using Generative AI in Software Project Management to Bridge Domains and Accelerate Productivity
Gen AI Assistants play to the strengths of professionals with a breadth of experience, particularly software developers who can describe what they want the LLM to complete and critically evaluate the result. These tools enable us to swiftly cross divides of domain language and scale large repetitive tasks down to interesting ones on a human scale.

Zero to Performance Hero: How to Benchmark and Profile Your eBPF Code in Rust
In this article, we will walk through creating a basic eBPF program in Rust. We will intentionally include a performance regression and then use profilers to locate and fix the bug. We will also create benchmarks and track them using a continuous benchmarking tool for CI.

Streaming HTML – Asynchronous DOM Updates without JavaScript
Web applications provide the best user experience when pages load quickly and display additional data as it becomes available. Developers typically use JavaScript to load data asynchronously, but this adds complexity when compared to server-side rendering. We review a technique that uses the Shadow DOM with HTTP streaming to load pages quickly and display data asynchronously without JavaScript.

Optimizing Spring Boot Config Management with ConfigMaps: Environment Variables or Volume Mounts
Spring Boot stands out as a viable framework for its agility and streamlined workflow. Yet, effective configuration management remains a pivotal factor influencing deployment efficiency and ongoing maintenance. ConfigMaps, a feature in Kubernetes, provides configuration strategies for Spring Boot applications.

Experimenting with LLMs for Developer Productivity
This article describes an experiment that sought to determine if no-cost LLM-based code generation tools can improve developer productivity. The experiment evaluated several LLMs by generating unit tests for some open-source code and measuring the code coverage as well as the manual rework necessary to make the tests work.

You Don’t Need a CSS Framework
Developers use CSS frameworks to reduce boilerplate, increase quality, and drive consistency. However, these gains are hard to maintain as an application’s codebase matures. Developers must configure and override the framework to accommodate changes. Instead of using a CSS framework, developers should write their own custom CSS. CSS has evolved enough that this became the best option.
