Design Thinking: Future-Proof Yourself from AI | @CloudExpo #ML #Cloud #ArtificialIntelligence

It’s all over for us humans. It may not have been “The Matrix”[1], but the machines look like they are finally poised to take our jobs. Machines powered by artificial intelligence and machine learning process data faster, aren’t hindered by stupid human biases, don’t waste time with gossip on social media and don’t demand raises or more days off. While there is a high probability that machine learning and artificial intelligence will play an important role in whatever job you hold in the future, there is one way to "future-proof" your career...embrace the power of design thinking. Figure 1:  Is Artificial Intelligence Putting Humans Out of Work? I have written about design thinking before (see the blog “Can Design Thinking Unleash Organizational Innovation?”), but I want to use this blog to provide more specifics about what it is about design thinking that can hel...

Mistakes to Avoid When Handling Java Exceptions | @CloudExpo #Java #Cloud #Analytics

Seven Common Mistakes You Should Avoid When Handling Java Exceptions By Thorben Janssen Handling an exception is one of the most common but not necessarily one of the easiest tasks. It is still one of the frequently discussed topics in experienced teams, and there are several best practices and common mistakes you should be aware of. Here are a few things you should avoid when handling exceptions in your application. Mistake 1: Specify a java.lang.Exception or java.lang.Throwable As I explained in one of my previous posts, you either need to specify or handle a checked exception. But checked exceptions are not the only ones you can specify. You can use any subclass of java.lang.Throwable in a throws clause. So, instead of specifying the two different exceptions that are thrown by the following code snippet, you could just use the java.lang.Exception in the throws cla... (more)

Are a container and a virtual machine fundamentally the same or different? And how? Is one techn...
