La RDC peut-elle aussi parler de souveraineté numérique ?
La quasi-totalité de nos sites gouvernementaux, y compris le site du numérique, sont hébergés en France, sauf le site de la présidence. Je me demande ce qui empêche la RDC d'héberger les données de ses citoyens congolais au Congo.

I've recently been looking for a self-hosted alternative to expensive LMS platforms like Teachable or Thinkific. I wanted something I could run on my own infrastructure, and I finally found the perfect setup. In this article, I explain how I deployed @CourseLit on a Kubernetes cluster and how you can do the same

I was trying to understand how the lines of code we write every day go from human-readable code to machine code executable by the CPU, so I wrote a little article about it.

Good to know:
C++ developers should expect this copy method to perform a deep copy. Unfortunately, the copy method in Kotlin performs a shallow copy.
This means that after the copy, calling a.open() also changes b, even though a and b are two different instances.
To perform a deep copy, a custom implementation of the copy method is required.

New in Firebase AI Logic client SDKs: Grounding with Google Search 🔍💫
You can now connect the Gemini model to real-time web content from your mobile and web apps, ensuring the model's response is "grounded" in the most current and relevant facts available on the web.

ALT A flow diagram illustrates how Gemini answers a user's question by leveraging Google Search. The "User" asks "Who won the euro 2024?", which is received by "Gemini". Gemini, represented by a decision icon, "Decides to search or not", then "Query generation" occurs for terms like "UEFA Euro 2024 winner". These queries are sent to "Google Search (Tool)", depicted by a magnifying glass icon, which "Searches the web" and returns "Search results, snippets, metadata" to Gemini. Gemini then, indicated by a document icon, "Synthesizes answer using search results" and provides the "User" with the final answer: "Spain won Euro 2024, defeating England 1:2 in the final".

BREAKING: MIT just completed the first brain scan study of ChatGPT users & the results are terrifying.
Turns out, AI isn't making us more productive. It's making us cognitively bankrupt.
Here's what 4 months of data revealed:

Hey @googlemaps I was wondering if there was a way to find places not only based on my location, but also based on a location I've chosen,
Sometimes you're planning to go somewhere, and you want to know if there are grocery shops around that place, it's literally impossible to do that with Google Map right now.
