@focusotter @blackgirlbytes @AllThingsOpen @techgirl1908 Congrats to the queen!

[MongoDB @MongoDB]

Paginated search has a quiet failure mode: results duplicate or vanish between pages because relevance scores drift across replicas.

We fixed it with StableTfl, a new Lucene scoring function that computes relevance from the query and document alone.

Employers worldwide are pulling back on AI as they navigate a flood of errors and low-quality work that sap employee time, raise privacy and security risks, and drive up costs https://t.co/CeCNYfhKSb

@PeterBell It really shouldn’t be this hard. Especially with the benefits you referenced in play.

We were initially shocked to see Grace Hopper cancelled but then remembered .025 seconds later that this makes sense in the climate we find ourselves in.

If GHC struggled to garner the funding and support it usually does, how will smaller ones?

If your resume says “excellent communication skills,” prove it.

Who did you communicate with?
What was difficult?
What needed to be translated?
What decision depended on it?
What changed after?

Communication is not a vibe.

It is a business function.

This made my day! The headlines focus on the scariest or most pointless ways people use AI, so most people never hear how it can quietly improve everyday life: landing an interview, learning more about yourself, getting healthier. Those are the things that actually make a huge impact over time.

Sure, there are real concerns worth taking seriously. But it feels like everyone's stuck at the extremes, where AI is either ruining the world or it's a toy that creates more problems than it solves. They're completely missing the value in the middle ground, where it can raise your quality of life and the quality of life of the people around you. 💕
