When it comes to querying databases in .NET applications, there are two main approaches: using Raw SQL queries or an Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) framework such as Entity Framework Core. Both approaches have their advantages and drawbacks, and the choice between them depends on various factors such as performance, ease of use, security, and developer experience.

In this post, we'll compare Raw SQL and Entity Framework Core and explore their strengths and weaknesses in various scenarios. We'll look at factors such as performance, usability, and security, and examine how Raw SQL and Entity Framework Core handle different types of queries and databases. By the end of this post, you'll have a better understanding of which approach is best suited for your particular use case.

Magento, one of the most popular e-commerce platforms, has recently released its latest version, Magento 2.4.6.

In this blog post, we'll take a closer look at the updates and features introduced in Magento 2.4.6.

As technology develops and IT areas keep growing and occupying different spheres of our lives, we hear number of phrases every day. For some people, they quickly become just a new reality. For another group of people, they may be dark areas they are even hesitant to ask questions about. In this articles, I will mention 10 most popular IT terms we keep hearing every day with their explanations in a very simple language.

Desktop applications are software programs that run on a computer's desktop and provide functionality to the user. These applications can range from simple programs like text editors to more complex ones like video editing software. In this article, we will explore how to create desktop applications using Python, a popular programming language known for its simplicity and ease of use.

To get started, we first need to install a GUI (graphical user interface) library for Python. There are several libraries available, but two of the most popular ones are Tkinter and PyQt. Tkinter is a built-in library that comes with Python and is easy to use, but it may not have as many features as PyQt. PyQt, on the other hand, is a third-party library that offers more advanced features but can be more difficult to learn.

Here is an example of a simple Tkinter-based desktop application that displays a window with a button:

Abiding by the requirements is always necessary to make a product successful. You might have some confusion when it comes to non-functional and functional requirements. Many questions come up during this discussion. Such as in software engineering, how can you distinguish functional from non-functional requirements? What is the significance of this distinction? Besides functional requirements, why are non-functional requirements significant? This article aims at answering all these questions for you. 

From Transformers in Robotics (Google AI) to multimodal SSL (Meta AI) to requirements engineering in ML (CMU) to free courses. This week is full of fascinating announcements: research papers, technologies behind popular services, and open-source announcements!

Hi, I am a product designer and have been leading design at Immigram since August 2022. Before that, I worked in senior positions at Ozon, Motify, and Tinkoff.

I have been working remotely for more than five years, and I collected seven tips for staying productive while working remotely.

A ledger is a record of financial transactions that is used to track the flow of assets into and out of an organization. In Go, a ledger system could be implemented using various data structures and algorithms to store and process the transaction data.

To implement a simple ledger system in Go, you could start by defining a Transaction struct that contains the relevant information for each transaction, such as the date, the amount, and the description. You could then use a slice of Transaction values to store the ledger entries.

What is Addressable Asset System?

Addressable Asset System provides the robust and simpler system to load the assets by its “address”. Yes, you heard it right it loads the asset by it address and this simple change will make your life so much easier.

By unity definition: “The Addressable Asset System uses asynchronous loading to support loading from any location with any collection of dependencies.”

Now, let us get started with the topic!

Micro frontends are what we get when we bring the microservice approach to the front end. In other words, a micro frontend is made of components owned by different teams — that can be deployed independently. These components are assembled to create a consistent user experience.

With a micro frontend, no single team owns the UI in its entirety. Instead, every team owns a piece of the screen, page, or content. For example, one team might be responsible for the search box, while another might code suggestions based on users' tastes.

This article raises the topic of the history of the emergence of slang in the English language, gives a general definition of slang. Its main types, their origin, definition are listed. The key concepts that are used in the translation of English slang into Russian are established.

In my career, I was able to work from side of the manager and from side of the employee. I saw a lot of motivations for people and I know exactly what motivated meWhen you face such kind of query on an interview it is easy to say about your personal motivators, but more complicated explain your principles in motivation of your team.

Excelize is a library written in pure Go providing a set of functions that allow you to write to and read from XLAM / XLSM / XLSX / XLTM / XLTX files. Supports reading and writing spreadsheet documents generated by Microsoft Excel™ 2007 and later. Supports complex components by high compatibility, and provided streaming API for generating or reading data from a worksheet with huge amounts of data.

Recently, the community announce the release of version 2.6.1. Featured are a handful of new areas of functionality and numerous bug fixes. Here are most notable changes in this release.

Probably, for many developers the idea of this article will be obvious and it is fine.

Over the years in the development of applications in PHP, sometimes I come across methods, even from popular small libraries, which sometimes return strange or unexpected data types.

Sometimes on code review, I can see methods that return anything but the right data structure or type.

Many times I have met a problem with the delay of reading data from the service. How to speed up the process? How to make reading data faster? There is solution: need caching data for reading. I ve found a lot of examples of data caching implementation, but all of them covered quite simple cases and there was not the most important one: caching the entire collection and invalidate cache data during writing to the database.

Besides the software developers’ expertise in building next-gen applications, do you know what makes an application extraordinary?

The simple and straight answer is technology stack.

The right selection of front-end and back-end technologies makes app development expedient, less resource-intensive, and more result-driven.

However, the abundance of application development technologies confuses the decision-makers. It makes them hustle a lot to figure out which front-end and back-end frameworkcombination go well with each other.

If you are in such a dilemma, then you have landed on the right blog post. Get critical insights via this informative piece of content as it contains the most viable and preferred full stack app development frameworks of 2022.

Lua is a powerful, lightweight, scripting language, and is often used in video games due to its fast execution and short learning curve. World of Warcraft, Angry Birds, and Mafia II all use Lua script. However, related performance issues have also emerged. In our GOT Online performance report, we often see Lua-related functions in the Top20 cost list of Scripts. Today, we will discuss the methods to optimize Lua.
