What should we look for in Software Developers? Whenever you're #Hiring, you're essentially building a team. This process involves tempering expectations - as reality often messes with ideals (budgeting and talent gaps are common factors that clash with your goals). But it doesn't have to mean only that. The hiring process is also the perfect moment to evaluate what you're really looking for - and what to avoid.

WaveZync CodeHacks #08👨‍💻 🚀 Advanced Graceful Shutdown for Your Applications 🌟 💡 Concerned about your app shutting down abruptly? ✨ Learn to handle termination signals with graceful shutdown techniques to ensure your app cleans up resources, stops background tasks, and exits smoothly. 🌐 📌 What are SIGINT and SIGTERM Signals? 🛑 SIGINT (Signal Interrupt) 🔹 Triggered when you interrupt a process manually, typically by pressing Ctrl+C in the terminal. 🔹 Purpose: Allows developers to stop a running process interactively during development or debugging. 🔹 Example: A developer testing a local server. ⚙️ SIGTERM (Signal Terminate) 🔹 Sent by the operating system or a process to indicate a request to terminate gracefully. 🔹 Purpose: Used in managed environments like Kubernetes to inform an application to shut down cleanly. 🔹 Example: Kubernetes sends SIGTERM when scaling down pods or updating deployments. 🔍 Key Difference: ✔️ SIGINT is manual and typically interactive. ✔️ SIGTERM is programmatic, often used by orchestration tools or scripts. ✔️ SIGKILL, by contrast, immediately kills the process without cleanup. Avoid using SIGKILL unless absolutely necessary. 🌟 Why SIGTERM is Critical in Environments like Kubernetes? In Kubernetes environments: 🐳 Pods receive a SIGTERM signal when they're about to be stopped or replaced. 💡 Graceful shutdown ensures: ✔️ Active requests finish before the app stops. ✔️ Background tasks (e.g., job queues, database transactions) are halted safely. ✔️ The system has time (default 30 seconds) to complete cleanup before being forcibly terminated. 🤔 Why Handle Both SIGINT and SIGTERM? 🔸 SIGINT: Helps developers cleanly stop a local app during testing or debugging. 🔸 SIGTERM: Essential in production environments, particularly in Kubernetes, for smooth updates and scaling operations. 💻 By handling both, your app is ready for both local development and managed production environments. 🛠️ #️⃣ #Backend #GracefulShutdown #Kubernetes #DevOps #CodingTips

A common mistake I see companies make often is moving straight to integration of systems before working to reduce the number of systems they utilize. Managing multiple vendors will lead to massive inefficiencies, increased costs, & integration challenges. Plus, the value the integration provides will be minimal at best. A cohesive, well-integrated tech stack streamlines operations, enhances data accuracy, & drives productivity. By consolidating software providers, you simplify the integration process, ensure a more seamless & efficient workflow, & guarantee maximum value for yourself, your teams, & your company. At Vsimple, we run a thorough tech audit at no charge, reach out if you are wondering how you can start/improve your digital transformation! #BusinessIntegration #TechEfficiency #SoftwareConsolidation #VsimpleLife

The HITRUST framework and assurance methodology are well known but often misunderstood. So, it was extremely helpful to have Ryan Patrick from HITRUST join Ryan Winkler and me on the 360 Advanced webinar yesterday. He was able to shed some light on why HITRUST is one of the most trusted assurance vehicles in the marketplace. Watch a recording of the webinar: https://lnkd.in/eyZYGixj Here are several highlights from the conversation. - HITRUST is not only for healthcare. - The association between HITRUST and FedRAMP. - Artificial Intelligence is a priority for HITRUST. - The release of version 11.3. - What it means to be threat adaptive. - The difference between the R2, i1 and e1 certifications. - The brand new HITRUST “Trust Report” – See here: https://lnkd.in/eM95RnuV - And much more…. My take: Yes, HITRUST can be difficult to get through and takes a healthy financial investment to implement and maintain. That is because HITRUST is making a significant investment in creating a framework and methodology that goes way beyond a “check the box” exercise. By becoming HITRUST certified, you will improve your security posture and provide an extremely high level of assurance to your stakeholders. This is where compliance and security meet in all the best possible ways. Watch the webinar and let me know your thoughts.

how do you get the best labeling performance? i have a thought 1. use SMEs at your company 2. create urgency by relating human feedback to live agent activity 3. frame it as "the llm agent is *doing a favor for the labeler*" (sending an email, updating a CRM, etc) Thanks Charles Curt for an exciting and engaging chat about #ai #llms and #humanInTheLoop systems!

This new partnership deserves a pause. It is not a standard LOS/LMS integration, but if you are an auto lender, consider all the data you DON'T receive into your LOS/LMS. This includes dealer-specific information, like what bureau the dealer pulled, how many lenders the app was sent to, and whether the person bought a car or funded the loan. Wouldn't that be nice!?!??! Well if you use OttoMotto and Gestalt - you can have it!! OttoMoto, LLC Carol Docalavich Chris Kerr https://lnkd.in/guCuar_y

My colleagues are often involved in modernizing legacy systems, and our approach is to do this in an incremental fashion. Doing this with a mobile application raises some specific challenges. Matthew Foster and John Mikel Amiel Regida share their experiences of a recent engagement to do this, shifting from a monolithic legacy application to one using a modular micro-app architecture. https://lnkd.in/erGxWmy9
