Broadcast joins in Apache Spark are one of the most bang-for-the-buck techniques for optimizing speed and avoiding memory issues. Let’s take a look.
Exploring a quick but powerful structure in Scala 3 - type lambdas. This will help you think higher-level.
Scala has a powerful type system. We look at how Scala types can be organized, what type constructors are, and why we should care.
We discover opaque type aliases in Scala 3 and how we can define new types with zero overhead.
