Now, TFRecorder allows users to write TFRecords directly from a Pandas dataframe or CSV without writing any complicated code, according to Google in a post.<\/p>\n<p>Data loading performance can be further improved by implementing prefetching and parallel interleave along with using the TFRecord format.<\/p>\n<p>Stackery brings serverless to the JamstackStackery announced that it added the website resource to simplify the build process for static site generators like Gatsby.<\/p>\n<p>This automates a lot of machinery within AWS to retrieve application source and build it with references to external sources, including: AWS Cognito Pools, GraphQL APIs, Aurora MySQL databases, and third-party SaaS services like GraphCMS.<\/p>\n<p>The combination of JAMstack and serverless allows for powerful, scalable, and relatively secure applications which require very little overhead and low initial cost to build, Stackery wrote in a post.<\/p>\n<p>Visual Studio Code updateVisual Studio Code version 1.48 includes updates such as Settings Sync now available for preview in stable, an updated Extensions view menu, and a refactored overflow menu for Git in the Source Control view.<\/p>\n<p>It also includes the option to publish to a public or private GitHub repository and to debug within the browser without writing a launch configuration.<\/p>\n<p>Preview features are not ready for release but are functional enough to use, Microsoft wrote in a post that contains additional details on the new release.<\/p>\n<p>Source dependency reporting in Visual Studio 2019 16.7The new switch for the compiler toolset enables the compiler to generate a source-level dependency report for any given translation unit it compiles.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the use of \/sourceDependencies is not limited only to C++, it can also be used in translation units compiled as C. The switch is designed to be used with multiple files and scenarios under \/MP, according to Microsoft in a post.<\/p>\n<p>C++20 demands a lot more from the ecosystem than ever before. With C++20 Modules on the horizon the compiler needs to work closely with project systems in order to provide rich information for build dependency gathering and making iterative builds faster for inner-loop development, Microsoft stated.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>Read the original:<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/sdtimes.com\/softwaredev\/sd-times-news-digest-microsoft-launches-open-source-website-tensorflow-recorder-released-and-stackery-brings-serverless-to-the-jamstack\/\" title=\"news digest: Microsoft launches open source website, TensorFlow Recorder released, and Stackery brings serverless to the Jamstack - SD Times -...\">news digest: Microsoft launches open source website, TensorFlow Recorder released, and Stackery brings serverless to the Jamstack - SD Times -...<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Microsoft launched a new open source site, which features aims to help people get involved, explore projects and join the ecosystem. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[78317],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-43380","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-opensource-code"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43380"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=43380"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43380\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=43380"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=43380"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=43380"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
