About Oracles for Blockchains and a Bit on Web3

Currently, blockchains are largely isolated from external information sources — both centralized resources and other blockchains. To ensure different blockchains are compatible and can easily exchange data with one another (and with external resources), oracles can be used. What are oracles? An oracle is a system that retrieves and verifies events from outside the blockchain and transmits this data […]

Sysadmin: the eternal portal to an IT career

The profession of a system administrator is always accompanied by stereotypical perceptions. A sysadmin is often seen as a jack-of-all-trades IT specialist in any company who fixes computers, establishes the Internet, handles office equipment, configures software, etc. It has even reached the point where a System Administrator Day has been established — the last Friday in July, which is today.

Recently, colleagues in the field have independently started asking me: how to receive all Bluetooth channels simultaneously from one SDR receiver? The bandwidth allows it, and there are SDRs with an output bandwidth of 80 MHz or more. It is certainly possible to do this on an FPGA, but the development time for such a solution will be quite significant. I have long known that it can be done on […]

Revelations of a sysadmin: how my family perceives my work

System Administrator Day (or rather, the day to recognize their contributions) is a wonderful opportunity to reflect on oneself from an outside perspective. To see oneself and one's work through the eyes of loved ones. The title 'system administrator' sounds quite vague. Sysadmins are responsible for a wide range of different devices, from desktops to servers, printers, and air conditioners. Therefore, when introducing oneself to another IT professional, it's essential to add at least one qualification. For example, […]
