Why Alerting Is Still a Pain Point for Analysts In most organizations, business analysts are expected to do more than just build dashboards. They are also responsible for monitoring data health, tracking operational KPIs, and alerting business users when something goes wrong — often in near real time. Yet despite the availability of modern BI tools, alerting workflows remain surprisingly manual in many ways, such as:

The goal, announced at a gathering of Communist Party leaders, was the lowest since 1991 and can offer clues about China’s policymaking plans.

Even far from hubs like Dubai and Abu Dhabi, the disruptions from the growing violence have left people jumping “from one cancellation to the next.”

The U.S. Department of Justice is seeking to pause and review state-level ethics complaints against its attorneys to combat what the agency called "weaponization" of ethics processes, a proposal that drew concerns from ethics scholars for overstepping states' authorities.

Currently, a closure declared as nonisolated(nonsending) while also being @Sendable completely omits the effect of nonisolated(nonsending). I’m uncertain whether this is intended behavior. If not, I think it would be wise to emit a compiler diagnostic indicating that nonisolated(nonsending) is ineffective in such cases. P.S. The order in which, and when, one can apply nonisolated(nonsending) seems rather random. 7 posts - 3 participants Read full topic

Republican is accused of improperly claiming more than $9,000 in funds meant to subsidize housing costs for members of CongressUS politics live – latest updatesSign up for the Breaking News US email to get newsletter alerts in your inboxNancy Mace, a Republican representative, is under investigation by the House ethics committee over allegations that she may have improperly claimed more than $9,000 in reimbursements meant to subsidize housing costs for members of Congress.According to a report from the nonpartisan Office of Congressional Conduct (OCC), which reviews ethics complaints against lawmakers, the South Carolina representative’s requests for reimbursement had exceeded the total of her DC property expenses during several months in 2023 and 2024, “amounting to an excess of $9,485.46”.

In light of the Trump administration's record False Claims Act enforcement haul, companies should be especially mindful of a planned expansion in the scope of enforcement and the false compliance certification risks that may bring, attorneys say.

In a year already marked by many challenges, 2026 has also been defined by a series of heartbreaking losses. The LGBTQIA+ community has said goodbye to beloved, trailblazing entertainers and storytellers, as well as outspoken allies who consistently used their platforms to advocate for equality. Their work made audiences laugh, feel seen, and, in many cases, feel less alone. Here, we remember the LGBTQIA+ icons and allies who have passed away this year and the legacies they leave behind.Rick GarciaRick Garcia died of heart failure on 12 January 2026 at the age of 69.

The question of whether prehospital emergency anaesthesia and intubation improves survival in patients with major trauma has long been debated. Progress has been hampered by ethical and practical barriers associated with randomised controlled trials in the prehospital setting, leaving clinicians reliant on observational data with a substantial risk of bias.1 In The Lancet Respiratory Medicine, Amy Nelson and colleagues2 present a landmark study that applied advanced causal modelling and machine learning techniques to estimate the survival effect of prehospital intubation in risk-stratified trauma patients.

Ben Smith, Angie Moxham, and Mark Borkowski discuss the Greens' bi-election win in Gorton and Denton, attributing the success of the candidate, Hannah Spencer, and Zack Polanski's effective communication campaign that provided a message of hope, local authenticity, and leveraged identity politics against Labour. On the show we also discuss the language of war in the Iran conflict, where Mark Borkowski noted the problematic trend of naming military operations like video games and the increased control of narrative through restricted journalist access.Angie Moxham critiques the current political rhetoric as incendiary and thoughtless. DetailsThe Greens' Bi-election Win in Gorton and Denton: Angie Moxham suggested that the Greens' success, led by Zack Polanski, was anticipated because they effectively campaigned on a message of hope and optimism, which resonated with people fatigued by negative news. They concluded that the victory was more attributable to effective communication than to the specifics of the party's policy.Authenticity and Identity Politics in the Bi-election: Mark Borkowski emphasized the authenticity of the successful candidate, Hannah Spencer, who was described as a working-class local person with a background as a plumber and plasterer. This local identity and seeming distance from the "Westminster bubble" provided credibility and appeal to the electorate, suggesting that identity politics played a significant role. Angie Moxham added that the lack of a genuinely working-class Labour leader, referencing Keir Starmer, highlighted the smartness of the Greens' communication strategy.Campaign Strategy and Protest Vote Analysis: Mark Borkowski noted that a clever local campaign, including the alleged dark arts use of an image connecting Keir Starmer with Indian President Narendra Modi, to target the Pakistani community, was effective in the constituency. Regarding the nature of the win, Angie Moxham concluded that the victory was likely a combination of the local grassroots efforts and a broader desire among people for hope, especially considering the current negative climate in the UK.The Language of War and Conflict Communication: The discussion shifted to the communication strategies observed in relation to the conflict in Iran, involving the US and Israel. Mark Borkowski noted the concerning trend of giving military operations evocative names like "Operation Roaring Lion" and "Operation Epic Fury," suggesting that the conflict is being "sold" as a "Call of Duty type of game". This language aligns with the increasing mechaniaation of warfare, making it easier to engage in conflict without physical "boots on the ground".The Danger of Incendiary Political Rhetoric: Angie Moxham described the language of war, particularly from figures like Trump, as "absolutely excruciating" and incendiary. They expressed concern that this thoughtless, insulting rhetoric will only lead to more death and destruction, likening the political climate to a "child's playground.”Mark Borkowski agreed that there is a current lack of calming voices on the global scene, emphasising that the aggressive language is driven by the 24/7 news cycle.Media Control and Propaganda in Modern Warfare: Mark Borkowski highlighted the extreme control of the narrative, specifically citing the IDF’s restriction of independent journalists, which they contrasted with earlier conflicts where journalists had more access. They pointed out that both sides understand the power of propaganda, referencing ISIS’s carefully staged executions for YouTube, concluding that the current age amplifies the loudest voice, making it easier to create factionalization.

Hello everyone – The review of SE-0510: Dictionary mapValuesWithKeys ended on February 17, 2026. Feedback was light and generally quite positive. One commenter pointed out that because the arguments to the closure body are (Key, Value), the name mapKeyedValues may be more clear at the use site. The LSG agrees with this, and has decided to accept this alternative name. Another commenter requested that a compactMap form of this operation be considered. This does not confer the same performance benefits as the non-compact variant, but we feel that it is still a beneficial API and should be included. Our decision is that the proposal should be accepted with those modifications. Thanks to everyone for your participation in the review. – Steve Canon 1 post - 1 participant Read full topic

Former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James have urged the Fourth Circuit not to revive criminal indictments filed against them last year in the Eastern District of Virginia, arguing they were fatally flawed because they were brought by a federal prosecutor who was not lawfully in that position.

I've been watching some of the original lecture videos on async-await concurrency in Swift. The Protect mutable state with Swift actors video has a code snippet with a basic implementation for an image downloader cache: an actor that can perform asynchronous work and also cache that asynchronous work to prevent duplicate operations: actor ImageDownloader { private enum CacheEntry { case inProgress(Task<Image, Error>) case ready(Image) } private var cache: [URL: CacheEntry] = [:] func image(from url: URL) async throws -> Image? { if let cached = cache[url] { switch cached { case .ready(let image): return image case .inProgress(let task): return try await task.value } } let task = Task { try await downloadImage(from: url) } cache[url] = .inProgress(task) do { let image = try await task.value cache[url] = .ready(image) return image } catch { cache[url] = nil throw error } } } This works… but I'm having trouble understanding how this example could be expanded to include work that is requested and then cancelled. If image(from:) is called from a parent task and that parent task is cancelled then AFAIK the "child" task here would not cancel. Correct? AFAIK both async let and TaskGroup are not "escapable" in the sense that we could pack them in a collection to be returned again outside of our current scope. Correct? I then have no clear understanding how we could both save an asynchronous unit of work in a collection and also automatically cancel when the parent task is cancelled. IIUC we can either get unstructured concurrency with the ability to escape and cache our asynchronous work or we can get structured concurrency with the ability to automatically cancel when the parent task is cancelled. But I see no clear way here to get both the ability to escape and cache our asynchronous work and automatically cancel when the parent task is cancelled. A interesting side quest is that I would also want for cancellation to cancel the task only if nobody else is waiting for it. So that cancelling the "original" image(from:) would not cancel the underlying child task if more than one caller is waiting for the same image(from:) result. Is something like this possible using the primitive async-await tools in production swift today? Or would image(from:) need to return some kind of higher level helper instead of an Image directly from an async function? 9 posts - 5 participants Read full topic

Bridgerton's fourth season has included a Benedict coming out scene, and fans are exploding with happiness.Major spoilers ahead. On 26 February, fans of the beloved romance series were treated to the second half of season four.

Ben Smith and Andrew Bloch reviewed the UK PR pitch and M&A market in February, noting that the pitch market was "steadier" with clients taking longer to decide, while agency M&A was "booming" with high demand and competition driving up prices for agencies around the £20 million enterprise value, especially those leveraging AI. PR pitch wise we saw significant client wins for Edelman, Words and Pixels, Brazen, W, and Hope&Glory, and key acquisitions included Resident acquiring Okay Cool, Future Group acquiring Alfred's assets, Kink acquiring Lobby PR, Havas acquiring a 51% stake in Acento, and Source Code acquiring Rally Point. WPP's strategy was discussed, as it shifts into four unified business units, including WPP Creative under which PR brands will sit.
