A ‘token’ can represent almost anything in Ethereum, according to Ethereum.org: Lottery tickets, points in an online platform, fiat currency, and much more. These tokens must follow a standard called ECR-20 to have the same type and value of any other token, and behave just like the ETH.   The platform Opyn lets users buy and The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://softwareengineeringdaily.com/2021/04/09/opyn-defi-options-trading-with-aparna-krishnan/">OPYN: DeFi Options Trading with Aparna Krishnan</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://softwareengineeringdaily.com">Software Engineering Daily</a>.

Using artificial intelligence and machine learning in a product or database is traditionally difficult because it involves a lot of manual setup, specialized training, and a clear understanding of the various ML models and algorithms. You need to develop the right ML model for your data, train the model, evaluate it, optimize it, analyze it The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://softwareengineeringdaily.com/2021/04/06/mindsdb-automated-machine-learning-with-jorge-torres/">MindsDB: Automated Machine Learning with Jorge Torres</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://softwareengineeringdaily.com">Software Engineering Daily</a>.

The typical procedure many companies follow to reach production-level code is design the program, code and test it in different environments, and put it in a pipeline to deploy to production. Developers can make it pretty far into building their core features before inevitably breaking to include enterprise features and security standards like Single Sign The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://softwareengineeringdaily.com/2021/04/05/workos-making-enterprise-ready-apps-with-michael-grinich/">WorkOS: Making Enterprise-Ready Apps with Michael Grinich</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://softwareengineeringdaily.com">Software Engineering Daily</a>.

Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Dogecoin are electronic currencies with a complete transaction history stored on a blockchain. A cryptocurrency blockchain is a linear record of all the transactions between users for a given currency. This record is public and distributed across thousands of computers, which makes falsifying a transaction nearly impossible because the hacker would The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://softwareengineeringdaily.com/2021/04/01/dydx-crypto-trading-with-antonio-juliano/">dYdX: Crypto Trading with Antonio Juliano</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://softwareengineeringdaily.com">Software Engineering Daily</a>.

Digital communities have exponentially grown in importance ever since most of the world went remote. Basically every popular online forum, message board, chat app, and other online social aggregators were created before this new normal. Many of these platforms lack sufficient organization or are just outdated for a fully remote environment.

Many startups today begin their life as an open-source project. Open source projects allow early adopters of a technology to experiment, to contribute code and feedback, and to shape the evolution of the project in its early stages. When a “community maintainer” company emerges to provide service offerings based on that project, its early customer The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://softwareengineeringdaily.com/2021/03/25/developer-community-management-with-patrick-woods-and-josh-dzielak/">Developer Community Management with Patrick Woods and Josh Dzielak</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://softwareengineeringdaily.com">Software Engineering Daily</a>.

Observability is a key feature of a well-architected application. Because building an observability system for a cloud application can be challenging, especially at scale, many organizations elect to use third-party observability platforms rather than build internal tools. But these third-party provider contracts often charge by volume of data collected, which can be unpredictable and difficult The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://softwareengineeringdaily.com/2021/03/22/opstrace-open-source-observability-with-sebastien-pahl/">Opstrace: Open Source Observability with Sebastien Pahl</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://softwareengineeringdaily.com">Software Engineering Daily</a>.
