We'll have a presentation on grid computing with Pat Peralta.
An Introduction to Data Grids for Database developers
This talk will introduce the concept of data grids to developers that have experience with Java EE and relational databases such as Oracle. The programming model will be explored (including caching patterns and similarities to NoSQL) as well as the performance & scalability improvements a data grid offers.

Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

A 600-run benchmark by Ruby committer Yusuke Endoh tested Claude Code across 13 languages, implementing a simplified Git. Ruby, Python, and JavaScript were the fastest and cheapest, at $0.36- $0.39 per run. Statistically typed languages cost 1.4-2.6x more. Adding type checkers to dynamic languages imposed 1.6-3.2x slowdowns. Full dataset available on GitHub.

TigerFS is a new experimental filesystem that mounts a database as a directory and stores files directly in PostgreSQL. The open source project exposes database data through a standard filesystem interface, allowing developers and AI agents to interact with it using common Unix tools such as ls, cat, find, and grep, rather than via APIs or SDKs.

Swift 6.3 advances Swift cross-platform story with official Android support, improves significantly C interoperability through the new @c attribute, and continues extending embedded programming support. It also strengthens the ecosystem with a unified build system direction and gives developers more low-level performance control.
