Is Edge Computing a Thing?
Edge Computing is definitely a thing, but the computing need not occur at the edge. Instead what is needed is an ability to compute (anywhere) on streaming data from large numbers of dynamically changing devices, in the edge environment. This in turn demands an architectural pattern for stateful, distributed computing.

Why Visual AI Beats Pixel and DOM Diffs for Web App Testing
Visual AI breaks regions of pixels into rendered elements for comparison purposes, similar to how humans view web pages. As a result, Visual AI can compare any kinds of images on a page, providing a more effective mechanism for automated visual testing when compared to pixel and DOM diffing.
