Better Python Decorators with Wrapt

Our instrumentation uses built-in extension mechanisms where possible, such as Django’s database instrumentation. But often libraries have no such mechanisms, so we resort to wrapping third party libraries’ functions with our own decorators.

We value the correctness of our instrumentation a lot so that we do not affect our users’ applications.

Bug Forensics - How to debug an app that communicates with the server

Let me explain a process we know as ‘bug forensics’, based on a real bug that has impacted one of Bugfender’s customers.

Everything you need to know about .NET 5.0

If you’re a developer of .NET supporting enterprise apps developed in the .NET framework, you should know how the .NET 5 would impact your current enterprise app. Moving forward, there will be only one .NET to target macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS, Android, and more. Along with the release, there are new .NET APIs, language features, and runtime capabilities. The look and feel of the code and project files in .NET 5 would be the same, regardless of the type of app being created.

How to use data to change behaviors

The government's COVID-19 response is a good example of failed leadership from a data perspective. While government officials have access to a huge amount of data to help them make decisions they’ve fundamentally failed to use it to take people on a journey. There’s a huge lesson that businesses can learn from this on how to use data to change behaviors. What we’ve seen is governments responding to the outbreak at a very simplistic level.
