Hence, he gathered his thoughts in this concise note, which will eventually become part of the K8s documentation. Health checks, known in Kubernetes as liveness probes (i.e., literally, […]

Admin without hands = hyper-convergence?

Posted on

This is a fairly common myth in the server hardware industry. In practice, hyper-converged solutions (where everything is in one) are needed for many purposes. Historically, the first architectures were developed by Amazon and Google for their services. The idea at that time was to create a computing farm consisting of identical nodes, each with its own disks. All of this […]

The Perl 6 language has been renamed to Raku

Posted on

In the Perl 6 repository, a change officially renaming the project to Raku has been adopted. It is noted that although the project has formally received a new name, the renaming of a project that has been in development for 19 years requires significant work, and it will take some time to fully complete the renaming process. For example, replacing Perl with Raku will also require changing mentions of 'perl' […]

Remembering, but not cramming — studying "by cards"

Posted on

The method of learning various disciplines 'by cards,' also known as the Leitner system, has been known for about 40 years. Although cards are most often used to expand vocabulary, memorize formulas, definitions, or dates, the method itself is not just another way of 'rote learning,' but a tool to support the educational process. It helps save time needed to remember a large […]

Digital Breakthrough — How It Happened

Posted on
