A New Era of Cooperation: How the UK-India Free Trade Deal Can Benefit India's Digital Economy

India’s digital economy is on a historic growth trajectory. According to the Digital Infrastructure Providers Association (DIPA), it’s projected to reach $1 trillion by the end of 2025, driven by rising internet penetration, data consumption, and cloud adoption.

Streamline API testing with Proxy Mock! Capture, mock, and replay API calls locally

Alan Mon introduces Proxy Mock, a powerful tool for capturing and replaying API calls. Learn how to effortlessly record inbound and outbound API requests and responses. The demonstration highlights how Proxy Mock operates entirely on your local machine, eliminating the need for cloud services or internet connectivity for testing. See how to set up Proxy Mock, inspect captured API calls (including request/response headers, body, and unique signatures), and leverage it to mock API responses for seamless local testing, ultimately boosting productivity and reducing the need for costly non-production environments.

From painted doors to real prototypes - a mindset shift

The economics of building software are changing everything. For years, entrepreneurs used "painted doors" - fake features to test demand - because building was too expensive. But when AI drops development costs, you can create real prototypes and gather genuine user data instead of pretending. This mindset revolution treats experiments like cheap option contracts - the lower the cost, the more you can explore. Ready to abandon painted doors for unlimited experimentation?

How to think about quality in the age of cheap prototypes

When AI makes prototyping incredibly cheap, your old quality standards become a bottleneck. The key mindset shift? Quality doesn't matter equally everywhere. You can experiment with lower-quality prototypes to learn faster, then apply high standards only to what customers actually see. This isn't about lowering standards - it's about applying the right quality mindset at the right stage. Stop letting perfectionism slow down your learning phase.

Cloud Log Management: A Developer's Guide to Scalable Observability

As systems move to microservices, serverless, and multi-cloud setups, debugging gets harder. You’re no longer dealing with a single log file; you’re looking at logs from dozens of services, running across different environments. Traditional debugging methods like SSH-ing into servers or adding print statements don’t scale in these environments. Cloud log management tools help by collecting logs from all your services into one place.

What is Log Loss and Cross-Entropy

You're building a classification model, and your framework throws around terms like "log loss" and "cross-entropy loss." Are they the same thing? When should you use binary cross-entropy versus categorical cross-entropy? What about focal loss? This blog breaks down these loss functions with practical examples and real-world implementations.
