Have you ever heard of Conway's Law? Formulated in 1967 by computer scientist Melvin E. Conway, this theory states that IT systems designed by a company tend to replicate that company's communication structure. In other words, your technical architecture is always a reflection of your organization.

Quantum computing is reaching a major technological milestone: quantum computers powerful enough to break classical asymmetric cryptography are not yet here, but experts are highlighting an imminent danger: the "harvest now, decrypt later" scenario. In this scenario, malicious actors capture encrypted data today in order to decrypt it tomorrow, when quantum power becomes accessible. Faced with this threat, Switzerland is taking action: banks, public institutions, and multinat

If you're a machine learning or GenAI practitioner; or a Python developer in general, your main concern is (and should be) the core features of whatever scripts you are writing (the backend of a web app, an ML training script, a prompt chaining logic…). What you certainly don’t want, is to spend hours wrestling with virtual environments, investigating why your dev package versions are different than your prod versions,  or fixing inconsistent formatting before your pull reque

Last week I completed the Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals exam, AI-900 and achieving above the required 70% score for the 47 questions presented (you have 65 minutes to do the exam).  As always and in the same vein as my other blog posts, here is some sharing the love to help others prepare for this certification.  The kind of blog post I wish I had found when I was looking at doing the exam. As usual, my own revision notes are at the end of the blog post.

In a world where ecological concerns now affect every aspect of our lives, including our digital practices, new, often surprising, discussions are emerging. One of these is the question of whether being "polite" to an artificial intelligence like ChatGPT could have an indirect impact on the environment. Behind the apparent absurdity of this reflection—how could a polite phrase destroy forests or inflate our carbon footprint?—lies a serious question about how our choices of in

Superintelligence is often defined as a form of intelligence far beyond human cognitive abilities. Unlike the artificial intelligence (AI) we know today—largely specialized in specific tasks such as facial recognition or machine translation—superintelligence is said to have almost unlimited understanding and adaptability. It would surpass humans in “everything,” whether creativity, problem-solving, or simulated emotions.

Linus Torvalds is one of the most respected and influential names in the world of computing. He is the creator of the Linux kernel, which is at the heart of many operating systems used worldwide, as well as Git, a revolutionary code management tool. Let's take a look back at the fascinating life of this innovator and the impact of his creations.
