The blockchain market shows no signs of slowing down and this technology is one of the hottest skills in the freelance job market. However, according to Tom Beno and Nate D’Amico, blockchain skills won’t matter in the immediate future. How can this technology become more accessible to developers? Let’s find out!

At last month’s JAX conference, Wolfgang Pleus talked about the growth of the Agile movement and the trends that are particularly exciting right now. We caught up with him to dive deeper into the Agile topic.

Open source has a lot of benefits, no one can argue that. However, it is also uniquely positioned to face the threats of today’s security concerns. We talked with Rami Sass, CEO and co-founder of WhiteSource about some of the potential pitfalls in open source components, its challenges and more.

Deep down ML is a pure numbers game. With very few exceptions, the actual input to an ML Model is always a collection of float values. We talked with Christoph Henkelmann about the way ML algorithms work on words and letters, the difference between image and text and how to handle textual input properly.

During her influential talk “Beyond the ICO: How to create Total Value with Blockchain” at JAX Finance in London, Barbara Mellish explained how we can achieve total value in finance with Blockchain. Here, Barbara Mellish and her colleague Jan O’Hara give us some more insight on the topic.

Accidents happen. Sometimes we make mistakes, and that’s perfectly okay. We spoke with IBM Developer Advocate Fernando Cejas about the power of failing, how to pick yourself back up again, and the transformation from failing to learning.

Deep learning is probably one of the hottest topics in the field of software development at the moment. We spoke with Shirin Glander and Uwe Friedrichsen, both giving an introduction into deep learning at JAX 2018, about such future prospects.

Enabling cross-chain communications is just like opening borders to allow international trade. Overledger ensures that companies and developers have the flexibility to easily migrate to another technology when required. We talked with Paolo Tasca about the first blockchain operating system that facilitates the development of multi-chain applications and the value it brings to the blockchain technology.
