You have programmed for a few years and have cluttered up your sandbox, your local development machine, with downloads of many different libraries, frameworks, and maybe a virus or two.
The above described my life in 2008. The arduous tasks below detail the giant PIA (you are on your own…
As part of the AI 1.0 surge (1983–1987), I felt that AI, to be of practical use, had to be distributed. Since then, I have been building distributed operating systems.
I admit I stopped when I encountered Kubernetes in 2016 because from a Software Architect and Engineer viewpoint, there was…
I was taught to transform a complex problem into a simpler problem, by dividing the problem into smaller sub-problems.
I made the process paradigm of Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) simpler by dividing it into five different, but overlapping process groups or Operations (Ops) groups.
MLOps is automating the Machine Learning…
I plan to increase stability and performance and to decrease the cost of maintenance in the Photonai code base. I add clustering functionality to the original code base and change the architecture.
A small code refactoring task is usually fixing bugs. …
Python is a dynamically typed language. However, starting with Python 3.5 (PEP 484), type hints were introduced. Type hints (note: not strong type checking) make it possible, post coding of Python, to do static type checking of code.
Here’s a great figure showing the evolution of Python type hinting:
There is a dominating idea that extinction events occur suddenly. However, Climate Change Heating, a possible extinction event is occurring over decades. In the context of investing for a decade or more, these are my ideas for the Climate Change Heating macro event.
Almost all the international participation proposals detail…
I refer to kubectl often throughout this blog article.
kubectl is your local command-line interface (CLI) for exchanging declarative or imperative directives with a single Kubernetes cluster. The Kubernetes cluster is on your local sandbox; we use Minikube or remotely by the network.
An explanation and usage of Kubernetes should not discuss internal architectural components. Instead, I discuss Kubernetes basic concepts with code examples. In the end, as a bonus, Kubernetes has a glaring hole in its design.
Whether a single person, startup, or mega-corp, there will be a small number of users…
Literate programming is a superset of DevOps or Change Integration/Change Deployment (CI/CD). I detail how to implement literate programming by customizing nbdev for existing Github repositories. Example code can be used for other vendor repositories, such as Gitlab and Bitbucket.
Literate programming is a programming paradigm introduced by Donald Knuth…
The Docker image for our Jupyter Python and R users required them to set their Nbextensions preferences after every launch. We were able to increase Jupyter notebook user productivity by setting commonly used Nbextensions preferences in the Docker image.
We have a shared disk where anybody can copy the template…
