We Have Moved!!

Hi there! Welcome to The Game of Life!

If you look at the URL (the little bar above in your browser), it will be pointing to www.mayanklive.com instead of your good old blogspot address. Don't get too fidgety. That's because we have moved to this new domain to ensure that you, my reader, always gets to read the best articles without having to remember and type such a long URL.

As with any change, this process of moving will be a little painful and I request you to kindly bear with me. Lame, I know! But I promise to be back with a savvier look and more importantly, some good articles. Till then bookmark www.mayanklive.com in your browser. Thanks for your love and support!

Edit: 12th July 2017 - We have moved back to blogspot address. https://mayankblogshere.blogspot.in/

Creating a Smart Playlist

A few days earlier I was thinking that wouldn't it be nice if I had something which will automatically generate a playlist for me with no artists repeated. Also, it would be nice if I could block those artists which I really hate (like Himesh Reshammiya!). Since I couldn't find anything already available, I decided to code it myself. Here is the outcome -  This application is created entirely in .NET Framework 4/WPF and uses Windows Media Player Library as its source of information. So you have to keep your Windows Media Player Library updated for this to work. It is tested only on Windows 7/Vista. You can download it from here . UPDATE : You can download the Windows XP version of the application here . Please provide your feedback!

Integrating React with SonarQube using Azure DevOps Pipelines

In the world of automation, code quality is of paramount importance. SonarQube and Azure DevOps are two tools which solve this problem in a continuous and automated way. They play well for a majority of languages and frameworks. However, to make the integration work for React applications still remains a challenge. In this post we will explore how we can integrate a React application to SonarQube using Azure DevOps pipelines to continuously build and assess code quality. Creating the React Application Let's start at the beginning. We will use npx to create a Typescript based React app. Why Typescript? I find it easier to work and more maintainable owing to its strongly-typed behavior. You can very well follow this guide for jsx based applications too. We will use the fantastic Create-React-App (CRA) tool to create a React application called ' sonar-azuredevops-app '. > npx create-react-app sonar-azuredevops-app --template typescript Once the project creation is done, we

Serverless Generative AI: How to Query Meta’s Llama 2 Model with Microsoft’s Semantic Kernel and AWS Services

Generative AI is a type of artificial intelligence that can create new content such as text, images, music, etc. in response to prompts. Generative AI models learn the patterns and structure of their input training data by applying neural network machine learning techniques, and then generate new data that has similar characteristics. They are all the rage these days. 😀 Some types of generative AI include: Foundation models , which are complex machine learning systems trained on vast quantities of data (text, images, audio or a mix of data types) on a massive scale. Foundation models can be adapted quickly for a wide range of downstream tasks without needing task-specific training. Examples of foundation models are GPT, LaMDA and Llama . Generative adversarial networks (GANs) , which are composed of two competing neural networks: a generator that creates fake data and a discriminator that tries to distinguish between real and fake data. The generator improves its ability to fool the d
