it is a large project that is not portable. This is why i was not trying to enter it. I could take snippets of code or screenshots and post it for people to look at. time permitting at our next meeting i will demo it.

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.

Lambda now natively supports Apache Avro and Protobuf events, streamlining Kafka event processing - an enhancement that eliminates the need for custom deserialization, automates schema validation and filtering, and optimizes costs through efficient event handling. Integration with AWS Glue and Confluent registries simplifies development, allowing cleaner data consumption and enhanced scalability.

By Michael RedlichMicrosoft has introduced Mu, a new small-scale language model designed to run locally on Neural Processing Units (NPUs), starting with its deployment in the Windows Settings application for Copilot+ PCs. The model allows users to control system settings using natural language, aiming to reduce reliance on cloud-based processing.
