Feature flags also known as feature toggles, release toggles or feature flippers are a way to enable or disable a particular feature from your app without making any changes to the source code. You can turn on or off a particular functionality without deploying new code. Feature flags can also be used to serve different The post Shipping Features with Ben Rometsch appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.
Programming robotics software has traditionally been a specialized field. The software industry has seen rapid progress, the operating system that provides the foundation for our software applications is taken care of by companies like Google, Microsoft, and other players like Canonical, Amazon, etc. The robotics industry still needs that OS layer that handles the complexities The post Modern Robotics Platform with Eliot Horowitz appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.
Bug reporting hasn’t changed since the 1990’s. Despite all the technological advancements we’ve made in the rest of software development, the way we handle bugs has stayed the same. It is common practice for non technical teams to provide bug reports that are missing vital information for developers to identify and quickly fix code, such The post Bug Reporting is Broken and how Jam is Fixing that with Dani Grant & Mohd Irtefa appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.
Whether you love them or hate them, share them or ignore them, you encounter memes all over the internet.  Those that are popular can often take off and spawn a long history of remixes, variants, derivatives, and inspired works.

Modern software consists of sprawling international networks of servers. Users contact these servers to access applications. Microservices talk to each other to fulfill complicated requests. Databases and machine learning frameworks crunch terabytes of information to provide complicated answers. Across this infrastructure, there is a lot of different activities–and a lot of vulnerabilities. Without a reliable The post SPIFFE: Zero Trust Workload Identification with Evan Gilman appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.
Apple operating systems are closed source. This closed source nature gives Apple an extremely successful business model–and a very different software developer ecosystem than Linux-based systems. Since Linux is open source, the information on how to manipulate the system at a low level is very public. The lack of information about low-level programming in Apple The post Jailbreaking Apple Watch with Max Bazaliy appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.
If you operate a restaurant, you want to know how many people are inside your restaurant at any given time. You also want to be able to know your occupancy if you operate a movie theater, coffee shop, or apparel store. Knowing how many people are in your building can answer several business-related questions. Do The post Counting People with Andrew Farah appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.
Napster, Kazaa, and Bittorrent are peer-to-peer file sharing systems. In these P2P systems, nodes need to find each other. Users need to be able to search for files that exist across the system. P2P systems are decentralized, so these routing problems must be solved without a centralized service in the middle. Without a centralized service The post Kademlia: P2P Distributed Hash Table with Petar Maymounkov appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.
