Reporting tech signals
Every month we watch tech trends closely to depict which ones have high potential, and can be part of our growing tech stack.
This month highlights:
- AWS introduces Low Latency Runtime (LLRT) for serverless applications, promising over 10x faster startup times and up to 2x lower operational costs. Languages to look out for: Rust, QuickJS JavaScript
- In the age of AI, system engineering is more crucial than traditional coding education
- A groundbreaking method using 1.58 bits per parameter in LLMs aims to dramatically reduce the computational cost and energy consumption of running LLMs
- FinOps shift towards waste reduction and managing commitment-based discounts to address global economic pressures
- White House Office reports the critical need for memory-safe programming languages, advocating for languages like C#, Go, Java, Python, Rust, and Swift
Research topics 2024
Being able to solve problems using the latest, coolest technologies has always been our main goal. Therefore, we are going big on research this year.
- At the moment, we have around 40 topics in our backlog.
- Topics are chosen by nominating and voting.
- All Dwarves' members are required to participate in research activities.
- Each topic will be a bounty item led by our senior members.
A handful of community members has expressed interest in joining hands. Of course, we're happy to have everyone onboard. However, we will need to assess each contributor's skills and experience first for quality purpose.
If you want to join our research group, open a support ticket on our Discord and we'll talk to you asap!
Dwarves' reward system
Our server has been buzzing with quite a lot of knowledge sharing and discussing from members. It's only right that we start giving back to all contributors, through a Reward System.
ICYMI, ICY is Dwarves' very own token used to reward both team members and community members. Anyone can earn ICY by participating in community activities. Even the simplest acts like sharing a link, or chatting count too.
Our reward system is currently being developed. You can look forward to it!
Monthly top performers
Each month we track how productive and valuable each of our team members by using delivery points. The top 5 high-performing members get rewards with $ICY.
In February, kudos to those peeps who outperformed the rest: Chinh Le, Hai Huynh, Khac Vy, Tai Pham, Tay Nguyen!
Partner network
We are always seeking for business development partners, individuals and companies likewise, to develop a co-creation system driven by mutual purposes and interests.
With our average project size at $30,000, a partner can generate at least $2,400 per project. Commission is paid from project start, every month until project end.
But a stable income is not all we offer, there are other perks and benefits too!
Reach out to Nikki if you're interested or know someone who might :)
