Day 5
summary
Front‑end talk shows a concrete workflow: measure with Lighthouse/WebPageTest, set asset size budgets and CI hooks, remove a full Lodash import (swapping a tiny vanilla sort) and recover huge vendor savings — real teams see revenue jump from ~0.3s latency cuts. GraphQL Mesh converts OpenAPI/grpc/SQL/Neo4j to GraphQL, stitches or federates sources (Microsoft Graph converted in minutes), and publishes reusable mesh modules. Deep learning rules give practical wins: tf.data + prefetch/autotune, mixed precision (FP16 ≈ 2–3×), batch sizes in multiples of 8/64, DALI/JPEG decode on GPU, 8‑bit quant retains ~98% accuracy. Conversational demo streams browser audio via WebRTC/RecordRTC + socket.io-stream → Speech‑to‑Text → Dialogflow → Translate → WaveNet TTS and deploys on App Engine; it works end‑to‑end.
