Google leads the day with their post about protecting the world’s news from digital attack. It is good to see that there is some free tooling to help protect some sites. There is a good article from Programmable Web about providing SDKs if you offer an API. This is true not just for our favorite web sites but for enterprise software as well. On Java Code Geeks we get a nice tutorial on using Apache Spark for Machine Learning.
As always, enjoy today’s items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
