Google Search demos visual AI and planning tools
Google Search is showcasing new visual AI capabilities, including an 'AI Mode' with a 'Canvas tool' for planning and 'Search Live' for real-time camera analysis. This demonstrates Google's strategy of integrating multimodal AI directly into its core product, moving beyond text queries to interactive, visual problem-solving. Engineers should note the shift towards integrated, task-oriented AI experiences that combine visual input, planning, and real-world data.
Gemini API Webhooks Eliminate Polling for Long Jobs
The Gemini API now includes event-driven Webhooks, eliminating the need for continuous polling on long-running jobs like batch processing or video generation. Instead of repeatedly calling GET operations, your server will receive a real-time HTTP POST payload the instant a task finishes. This simplifies building efficient, agentic workflows that might take minutes or hours, reducing latency and infrastructure overhead for your applications.
Google's April AI Push: Gemma 4 and Agent Platform
Google's April AI update introduces the Gemma 4 open model, an eighth-generation chip, and the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform. This signals a major push into the "agentic era," providing engineers with the foundational models, hardware, and platforms to build more autonomous AI systems. The release also includes a personalized coding tutor in Colab and the Deep Research Max data analysis tool. Evaluate Gemma 4 for your open-source needs and explore the new agent platform for building complex w
Top 10 FastAPI interview questions for senior roles
FastAPI interview questions rarely test syntax. They probe whether you understand its three pillars: ASGI powered async concurrency, Pydantic validation at the request boundary, and the Depends dependency injection graph that wires services together.
Async SQLAlchemy 2.0: the mental model that clicks
SQLAlchemy's async support is a bridge, not a rewrite. AsyncSession and AsyncEngine still run the same synchronous ORM internals underneath, inside a lightweight greenlet, and only hand control back to the event loop at the moment a real database call happens.
Server Components, explained without the jargon
React Server Components render on the server and send the client a description of the result, not JavaScript. That means no bundle cost for server rendered parts and direct database access, with client components handling only the interactive pieces.
React interview cheatsheet: hooks rules in 60 seconds
The rules of hooks exist because React identifies each hook by call order, not by name. Call hooks only at the top level of a component or custom hook, never inside a loop, condition, or nested function, or state attaches to the wrong hook.
