A bug in software can be disruptive, elusive, maddening, and invasive. Indeed, a developer often needs the tenacity of Edison to find and fix an issue. But grit isn't the only asset a developer requires. One also needs information to debug code: What are the symptoms and effects of the issue? What is its frequency? Pervasiveness? Provenance? The evidence and artifacts of a bug — a core dump, stack trace, log, or test case — are invaluable.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is kind of a big deal. And when things are a big deal, they're ripe to be exploited. Fortunately, mounting concerns about AI security and privacy are met by plenty of guidance on best practices from the good folks in the open source world. The OWASP AI Security Project has emerged as a crucial initiative, offering developers clear, actionable guidance on designing, creating, testing, and procuring secure and privacy-preserving AI systems.

Workflow automation involves automating repetitive tasks and processes in a sequence using technology, reducing the need for manual intervention. It involves designing, creating, deploying, and automating business processes like data entry and customer interactions. Workflow automation uses software to replace manual and paper-based processes. Its primary goal is to ensure that the right people work on the right tasks at the right time.

A very common request we get from analytics users across all industries is the ability to export dashboard and analytic content to external files for collaboration and sharing. Whether the requirement is to export to PDF or export to XLS, exporting dashboard content to another popular media format remains an expected and important feature of modern business intelligence (BI). However, many analytics vendors lack options in exporting content, limiting the ability to share reports with non-analytics users.
