The etcd-await-election project for launching processes considering the selection of a leading instance

Posted on

The Ænix team has introduced a new project, etcd-await-election, which enables the 'leader election' operation across multiple nodes using the distributed storage etcd, ensuring that only one instance of the process runs in cluster environments. The project continues the development of the k8s-await-election idea, guaranteeing the exclusive launch of a user process only after the election of the leading service instance, but unlike it, does not […]

The robotic excavator has been trained to precisely throw stones.

Posted on

Experienced excavator operators are familiar with a trick that allows them to send the contents of the bucket beyond the reach of the arm. A neural network-equipped robo-excavator has proven to be a diligent learner, also mastering the precise throwing of rocks beyond the arm's reach. Next up is tossing bulk materials and improving accuracy for bucket operations at varying heights. Insights into the training process of the robo-excavator's neural network for precise manipulation of bucket contents have been reported […]

In GNOME, the transition to the Inter font as the default has begun.

Posted on

A change has been made to GNOME settings, switching the interface to use the Inter font by default, optimized for achieving high character clarity at small and medium sizes (less than 12px) when displayed on computer screens.
