Why Net Neutrality is so important?

Net Neutrality is the basic principle that prohibits internet service providers like AT&T, Comcast and Verizon from speeding up, slowing down or blocking any content, applications or websites you want to use. Net Neutrality is the way that the internet has always worked. In 2015, millions of activists pressured the Federal Communications Commission to adopt historic Net Neutrality rules that keep the internet free and open — allowing people to share and access information of their choosing without interference. But right now the internet is in peril. On Dec. 14, 2017, the FCC’s Republican majority approved Chairman Ajit Pai’s plan to gut the Net Neutrality protections. A former Verizon lawyer and a Trump appointee, Pai ignored the widespread outcry against his plan from millions of people, lawmakers, companies andco public-interest groups. We can’t let Pai have the last word on this — which is why we’re calling on Congress to use a “resolution of disapproval” to overtur...

7 Top Python GUI Frameworks for 2017

As a Python developer, sooner or later you’ll want to write an application with a graphical user interface. Fortunately, there are a lot of Python GUI options: The Python wiki on GUI programming lists over 30 cross-platform frameworks, as well as Pyjamas, a tool for cross-browser Web development based on a port of the Google Web Toolkit. How to choose between all these options for Python GUI? I started by narrowing it down to those that included all three platforms (Windows, Mac, and Linux) and, where possible, Python 3. After that filtering, I found four toolkits (Gtk, Qt, Tk, and wxWidgets) and seven frameworks (Kivy, PyQt, gui2Py, libavg, wxPython, Pyforms, and PyGOBjects). Here’s why I like them. Kivy One of the more interesting projects, the liberal MIT-licensed Kivy is based on OpenGL ES 2 and includes native multi-touch for each platform and Android/iOS. It’s an event-driven framework based around a main loop, and is thus very suitable for game development. Your appli...

What is Cloud Computing?

Cloud computing is an information technology (IT) paradigm that enables ubiquitous access to shared pools of configurable system resources and higher-level services that can be rapidly provisioned with minimal management effort, often over the Internet. Cloud computing relies on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and economy of scale, similar to a utility. Cloud computing enables companies to consume a compute resource, such as a virtual machine (VM), storage or an application, as a utility -- just like electricity -- rather than having to build and maintain computing infrastructures in house. Third-party clouds enable organizations to focus on their core businesses instead of expending resources on computer infrastructure and maintenance. Advocates note that cloud computing allows companies to avoid or minimize up-front IT infrastructure costs. Proponents also claim that cloud computing allows enterprises to get their applications up and running faster, with improved ma...

Why you should learn Coding / Programming

Steve Jobs once said : “I think everybody in this country should learn how to program a computer because it teaches you how to think”. 1. There are great Job Opportunities Coders, programmers and software engineers are in high demand, with more computing jobs available than IT professionals to fill them. If you want to make a career change, then programming is a very safe bet. And learning at least one programming language is the first step down a potentially very lucrative career path. 2. Even if you’re not a programmer/Software Engineer It’s not just IT professionals who can benefit from learning a programming language. Knowing code can help anyone from content creators to office managers, and even basic programming skills can give you the edge in an increasingly competitive job market. Whatever your role in a company, there’s a good chance you’ll have to work with programmers at some point. Having an understanding of programming languages will help you work together...
