Server-Side Wasm: Today and Tomorrow - Q&A with Connor Hicks
At QCon this year, Connor Hicks presented the opportunities linked to using Web Assembly outside of the browser. Hicks addressed current and future server-side use cases for WebAssembly. He explained how Wasm and its ecosystem allow developers to craft serverless applications by declaratively composing serverless functions written in different languages.

Is Artificial Intelligence Closer to Common Sense?
Intelligent agents lack the common-sense knowledge they need to reason about the world. Traditionally, there have been two unsuccessful approaches to getting computers to reason about the world—symbolic logic and deep learning. A new project, called COMET, tries to bring these two approaches together. Although it has not yet succeeded, it offers the possibility of progress.

Real Time APIs in the Context of Apache Kafka
Events offer a Goldilocks-style approach in which real-time APIs can be used as the foundation for applications which is flexible yet performant; loosely-coupled yet efficient. Apache Kafka offers a scalable event streaming platform with which you can build applications around the powerful concept of events.

Brahmos, a New, Small, React-Like UI Framework with Concurrent Rendering -- Q&A with Sudhanshu Yadav
Brahmos implements the known React APIs (hooks, context, concurrent mode, and more) with a different and potentially faster method that also leverages a standard feature of JavaScript: template literals. Brahmos is among the very few UI frameworks that implements the experimental concurrent mode API sponsored by React. Other frameworks may be waiting out, or discarding the feature entirely.
