On Monday, June 10, Apple plans to hold a keynote viewing party for select students and developers, allowing them to watch the pre-recorded unveiling of new software updates. Apple accepted applications for the event until yesterday, and now emails are going out to developers who have been selected by the lottery process. The event will include "exciting new programming," an opportunity to meet with Apple experts, and other WWDC-related "special activities." At last year's WWDC event, developers and students were provided with refreshments in the morning, followed by the keynote event. The Platforms State of the Union followed, and there were two Apple Park tours to choose from. The day ended with the Apple Design Awards and an evening dinner. Boom! I got a golden ticket for the #WWDC24 special event at Apple Park! Check your inboxes, folks – see you there? pic.twitter.com/A3F0JLe9rq — Paul Hudson (@twostraws) April 4, 2024 Prior to 2020, the Worldwide Developers Conference was an in-person event that was hosted in San Jose, California. Developers were required to pay $1,599 to purchase a ticket to attend, and space was limited. Starting in 2020, Apple turned WWDC into an online event open to all developers, but there have been small in-person events at ‌Apple Park‌ since 2022. There will be a reception event at Apple's Infinite Loop campus on Sunday, June 9, where attendees can pick up their badges early. Apple extended invitations to Current Apple Developer Program members, Apple Developer Enterprise Program members, Apple Entrepreneur Camp alumni, and Swift Student Challenge winners from 2022 to 2024. Attendees were chosen by random selection. While there is no cost to attend the ‌Apple Park‌ special event, Apple does not cover transportation or lodging. Out-of-state attendees will need to purchase airfare, hotel accommodations, and transportation to ‌Apple Park‌. WWDC 2024 is set to take place from June 10 to June 14. Developers not selected to attend the special event can watch the keynote, interface with Apple engineers, and watch WWDC sessions online.Related Roundup: WWDC 2024Related Forum: Apple, Inc and Tech Industry This article, "Apple Sending Emails to Developers Invited to WWDC 2024 Apple Park Special Event" first appeared on MacRumors.com Discuss this article in our forums View the full article

Data scientists and other ML practitioners are increasingly relying on a new kind of data platform: the ML feature store. This specialized offering can help organizations simplify the management of their ML feature data and make their ML model development efforts more scalable. Feature stores take on the core tasks of managing the code that organizations use to generate ML features, running this code on unprocessed data, and deploying these features to production in user-facing applications. Feature stores typically integrate with a data warehouse, object storage, and an operational storage system for application serving... View the full article

Docker’s Peter McKee hosts serverless wizard and open sorcerer Yaron Schneider for a high-octane tour of DAPR (as in Distributed Application Runtime) and how it leverages Docker. A principal software engineer at Microsoft in Redmond, Washington, Schneider co-founded the DAPR project to make developers’ lives easier when writing distributed applications. DAPR, which Schneider defines as “essentially a sidecar with APIs,” helps developers build event-driven, resilient distributed applications on-premises, in the cloud, or on an edge device. Lightweight and adaptable, it tries to target any type of language or framework, and can help you tackle a host of challenges that come with building microservices while keeping your code platform agnostic. How do I reliably handle a state in a distributed environment? How do I deal with network failures when I have a lot of distributed components in my ecosystem? How do I fetch secrets securely? How do I scope down my applications? Tag along as Schneider, who also co-founded KEDA (Kubernetes-based event-driven autoscaling), demos how to “dapr-ize” applications while he and McKee discuss their favorite languages and Schneider’s collection of rare Funco pops!
