In last post I talked about iris-copilot, an apparent vision that in near future any human language is a programming language for any machines, systems or products. Its agent runners were actually using such so-called 3rd generation of agents. I want to keep/share a detailed note on what it is, for my own convenience as well. It was mentioned a lot times in recent conversations that I was in, so probably worth a note.

The Management Portal doesn't have a native way to switch to Dark Mode. This can be resolved using a Chrome extension called Dark Reader. See the result:

To install and use the Dark Reader:

Most IRIS developers use $LISTBUILD every day — often without even noticing it.

It is not just a convenient function for building lists. It is also the default internal format used to store row data, global values, and many intermediate structures inside the database engine.

Despite this, the actual binary representation of $LISTBUILD values is rarely discussed. Most developers rely on its behavior, but never look at how the data is really stored.

This article focuses strictly on the binary layout of $LISTBUILD values, based on direct inspection via zzdump.

Hello, community.

I've been working with Intersystem Caché for two years, and right away I was excited about the rich ecosystem that Caché provides. However, I was disappointed with calls using #call, and I understand that it was a limitation of the time. Well, the frustration is that #call returns null by default, meaning an AJAX request is executed, but there's no hook to retrieve the return from that request. The only way to retrieve the data from that request is by building a callback on the server side using &js<>.

What is a Microservice?

A microservice is an architectural style that structures an application as a collection of small, autonomous services. Each component is developed around a specific business capability, can be deployed independently, and is typically managed by a miniature, specialized, self-governing team.

During my work with customers and also following I often met the 
explicit or embedded question: What is this "GLOBALS" ?
I'll try to explain the history to unfold the context.
