• From data to insights: using event log data to train machine learning models - Due to the vast amount of operational parameters at play in tool manufacturing, cost and price calculation for custom tools and small lot sizes currently poses a major challenge for the industry.

• Scaling indexing and search - Algolia New Search Architecture Part 2 - What would a totally new search engine architecture look like? Who better than Julien Lemoine, Co-founder & CTO of Algolia, to describe what the future of search will look like. This is the second article in a series. Here's Part 1. Search engines need to support fast scaling for both Read and Write operations. Rapid scaling is essential in most use cases. For example, adding a vendor in a marketplace generates a spike of indexing operations (Write), and a marketing campaign generates a spike of queries (Read). [High Scalability]

• Responsible Tech Playbook - Those of us developing software don’t need to be told what a big impact it’s had on humanity this century. I’ve long maintained that this places a serious responsibility on our profession. Whether asked to or not, we have a duty to ensure our systems don’t degrade our society. But in the tumult of so many software projects, it can be difficult to step back and understand the implications of our work. In the last few months my colleagues at Thoughtworks have been putting together a catalog of techniques that we can use to address this problem, which they published as the Responsible Tech Playbook. The playbook is a free PDF download of about 50 slides, the bulk of which is a summary of a dozen tools and methods that teams can use to better understand their responsibilities. [Martin Fowler]

• An Engineer's Guide to Building a Database for Data-Intensive Applications - One of the decisions that some developers have to make is which database to use. I don't envy someone in this position - you have hundreds of options and a lot of FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) to dig through. It's no wonder that many of my friends simply pick what they have used before. What's that old idiom…? "Better the devil you know than the devil you don't". [SingleStore Blog via Aggregater Linklog]
