All you ever wanted to know about Android Loaders and never dared to ask.
Important: I no longer recommend to use a Loader for "one-shot" actions because it's complicated and has a few side-effects. So I recommend to still use AsyncTasks in that case. You can create an AsyncTask inside a Fragment with setRetainInstance(true) to keep the same AsyncTask instance accross configuration changes, but beware not to update the view or interact with the Activity if the result arrives while the fragment is stopped. If you don't need the result, a static AsyncTask will do the job.
These slides are part of a course about interactive objects in games. The lectures cover some of the most widely used methodologies that allow smart objects and non-player characters (NPCs) to exhibit autonomy and flexible behavior through various forms of decision making, including techniques for pathfinding, reactive behavior through automata and processes, and goal-oriented action planning.

Introduction to CQRS and Event SourcingSamuel ROZE
Event Sourcing is the idea that every state of your application can be represented by a sequence of events. Using these two principles as the heart of a system or an application is quite common but can be challenging if we don’t use the right tools or architecture.
One of JavaScript’s strengths is how it handles asynchrony. Async is one of the most important and often misunderstood part of Javascript or any other language. We will see how dealing with asynchrony in JavaScript evolved over the years. It all started with callbacks, it landed on generators and...
Refactoring, Agile Entwicklung, Continuous Integration – all diese für nachhaltigen Erfolg wichtigen Vorgehensweisen setzen Erfahrung mit Unit Testing voraus. Abseits von den üblichen "Bowling"-Beispielen möchten wir gerne einen Crashkurs inkl. Best Practices für das erfolgreiche Unit Testing durchführen. Anhand eines Beispielprojekts auf Basis des Zend Frameworks werden wir nach der Installation von PHPUnit auf allen Notebooks gemeinsam eine kleine Applikation aufbauen, die durchgehend Test-driven entwickelt wird.
droidcon Transylvania - Kotlin CoroutinesArthur Nagy
We face challenges with threading on a daily basis. There are too many ways to do it, too many options. Do I use an AsyncTaks, a Runnable or RxJava, what do I do? All these available APIs lead to an almost inevitable callback hell.
This talk will introduce Kotlin Coroutines as an alternative solution to this problem. We’re going to explore simple ways to perform long-running tasks and computation heavy operations in an asynchronous way, without freezing or crashing your app, while keeping the code clean and readable at the same time.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
