We all perform tasks in our day-to-day work that are considered 'non-promotable' – these are crucial for project success, but they won't get you promoted. This is commonly known as 'glue work', a term coined by Tanya Reilly. At Berlin Buzzwords 2025, Fatima Taj shared her personal experience of narrowly avoiding the trap of being permanently stuck with glue work and explained how to handle similar situations.

Integrating Pruning with Quantization for Efficient Deep Neural Networks Compression
Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have achieved significant advances in a wide range of applications. However, their deployment on resource-constrained devices remains a challenge due to the large number of layers and parameters, which result in considerable computational and memory demands. To address this issue, pruning and quantization are two widely used compression techniques, commonly applied individually in most studies to reduce model size and enhance processing speed. Nevertheless, combining…

Illinois farmers find that sheep and solar arrays go well together
The agrivoltaics practice of raising sheep under solar panels is a win-win for Illinois farmers — but first the market for lamb meat needs to grow.
