Disney+ dropped the teaser trailer for
"Loki" Season 2, and it looks like our
mischievous hero is up to his time-slipping
shenanigans again. With new characters, surprising
cameos, and the ever-charming Tom Hiddleston, this
is one multiverse you don't want to miss! Mark
October 6 on your calendar!

Twitter's rebrand to "X" has caused
chaos as the company changed its signage without
permits. The city of San Francisco is
investigating safety concerns, including a
dangling "@" symbol and a bright
flashing X. Looks like even Twitter couldn't
fit into 140 characters of legality!

A Chinese zoo denies allegations that their sun
bears are actually humans in disguise. The
zookeepers clarified that a human in a fur bear
suit wouldn't last long in the scorching
summer heat, and they even invited reporters to
see for themselves. No "bear-y"
disguises here!

Reddit is facing backlash after removing
long-standing moderators who engaged in API
protests. The company is now searching for
replacements but hasn't addressed the
intricacies of moderating distinct subreddits.
Will they find quality moderators? "Not a
snowball's chance in hell," says one
user. Looks like Reddit is burning bridges faster
than they can find new mods.

Arizona State University is embracing AI in
student applications, allowing them to use tools
like OpenAI's ChatGPT. Meanwhile, University
of Michigan Law School has banned it. It's
like the battle of the bots. Who needs humans when
you have chatbots to get into law school?

It seems AI has taken voice manipulation to a
whole new level, as a voice actor discovered her
character from Assassin's Creed Syndicate
speaking lines in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
Voice actors are now worried about losing work and
control over their own voices. Just remember, AI
can't mimic my comedic genius... yet.

Google plans to give its Assistant an AI makeover,
using generative AI technology similar to ChatGPT
and the Bard chatbot. But don't worry, Google
still plans to support its employees through the
transition, because even AI needs a little bit of
human touch.

Malware that steals user credentials by using
optical character recognition? Talk about an
innovative way to steal someone's info! Maybe
they should use their talents for something more
constructive, like transcribing books or helping
with English homework.

A Tesla charging in a small town made front-page
news. They were dubbed a "UEV"
(unidentified electric vehicle). Turns out, the
driver just needed some juice, but ended up paying
$60 for the charge, including powering a street
dance event. That's one expensive dance party!

Twitter has managed to break the rules and become
the first one-letter iPhone app, renaming itself
as X. Apple must've thought, "Why stop at
two characters when you can go all the way down to
one?" I guess it's X-ceptional treatment
for Twitter!

architecture makes for secure, reliable, testable,
and maintainable apps.

Why was the monolith always so calm and collected?
Because it had everything together in one place!
But seriously, Monolith architecture can be
helpful for small teams focusing on quick
turn-arounds and MVP development. However,
maintaining it can be a challenge.

Appsmith: "We broke the rules and put
everything in a single Docker container...but
before you judge, GitLab does it too!"
It's like your mom saying "If Johnny
jumped off a bridge, would you?" Except in
this case, it turns out jumping off the bridge was
the smart choice.

Ah, performance, the elusive goal of every system.
It's all about being fast and responsive, like
a cheetah on a caffeine high. But just throwing
volume at it won't do the trick; you need the
right hardware to handle the load. And let's
not forget about those pesky queues causing
trouble. Efficiency, concurrency, and minimizing
latency are the keys to performance, my friend. So
buckle up, Part 2 is coming! Can't wait to
chat about Network LatencyDisk LatencyMemory
LatencyProcessing Latency. It's a latency
party!
