hey ryu your rat ran all over my tablet you can have him back :/

[batbelen]

After so much time I paint in traditional again (draw the red eyes of Felix is IMPOSSIBLE).

This drawing is old. I can only paint in art classes, because the teacher has professional materials, I think I did it more than two weeks ago, her classes are two days a week, so it takes too long to finish it. I clarify that this painting was made before the fact of Penny was shown is now an ally of his mother and Felix, I started drawing it when the "Nightmare" animation was published.

The meaning of this drawing is that Felix somehow managed to invade Penny's code, The Principal takes charge in the matter by changing his daughter's mind, causing her to join them. I don't know if I understood myself well.

And as always, I love to create this piece of art.

Quite possibly one of the fastest street machines in town, Monty’s ‘06 Mazdaspeed 6 “Atenzela” (a combination of “Atenza”, the Japanese name for the Mazda 6, and “Axela”, the Japanese name for the Mazda 3) has been heavily modified and tuned to perfection. Bedecked in earth green paint, “Zela” whizzes through the night and screams up and down the local race courses, speeding past Subaru STIs, Mitsubishi Lancer Evos, Ford Focuses, and many other hot compacts. It doesn’t look very fast (save for the carbon-fiber hood and rear spoiler), but it’s a whole different vehicle underneath.

*The original all-wheel-drive parts have been swapped out for Ford Focus RS bits, along with the torque-vectoring software (including the infamous “Drift Mode”).

*The sport suspension pieces have been replaced with race counterparts to improve handling (although Monty hasn’t gone all out handling on the tuning to prevent his spine from breaking on bumps).

*A carbon-fiber hood and spoiler have been added to reduce weight.

*The original 2.3-liter turbocharged inline-four has been swapped...for a slightly-more-modern 2.3-liter inline-four from the same Focus RS. Seriously, the Mazdaspeed 3/6′s four and the 2.3-liter Ford EcoBoost four are the SAME ENGINES with different names.

*The turbocharger’s been modified to give a bit more boost, while being supplanted with a top-mounted electronic supercharger to reduce turbo lag and improve fuel economy. A cold-air intake (red cone) feeds the supercharger.

*The internals have been beefed up to handle the added power, and the exhaust has been opened up enough to give some extra oomph. However, it has bypass valves that allow it to keep quiet while driving around town; Monty’s not one for “flatulence modulators”, turbo whistles, and other extreme exhaust mods.

*Overall, Monty’s old ‘6 has gone from a fairly-fast, 278-horsepower Lan-Evo competitor to a monstrous, 500-horsepower daily-driven sleeper.

EUCALYPTS -- Eucalypts are quintessentially Australian. Whatever that term means to you, 'Australia', wouldn't be so without Eucalypts. A diverse genus of flowering trees and shrubs that are some 700-species strong. All but 15 of those species occur in Australia naturally. -- Eucalypts are now cultivated around the world for their aesthetic value, ecological benefits and their valuable essential oils. However, the range over which many eucalypts can be planted is constrained by their limited cold tolerance. The modern landscape of Australia is covered by 227,336,951 acres of eucalypt forest, that accounts for 75% of remaining vegetation. -- www.samuelhumphreys.com -- #eucalypts #eucalyptus #eucalypt #australiana #vintage #paper #naturalhistory #naturalhistoryillustration #SamuelHumphreys #botanical #botanicalart #botany #sustainableart #CNCF #sustainability #ethicalart #environmentalartist #nature #conservation #conservationart #illustrator #illustration #conservationist #blacklines #Australianartist #native #trees #biodiversity #art #australianart (at Australia)

Hdishdjd hi hello, I have edited the bean, Cncf Ted! This precious boi belongs to @ryukogo and he's from the au @cainsnocreaturefeature (highly recommend if you somehow don't know it) I love this boi- so much- just like I love his rat of a brother

Penny also makes a small guest appearance (as well as a quick one from Felix) dnjdbdjd love her too, I love everyone

Also some art belongs to @arquablysalty ;3

SBTB 2021 Program is Up!

Scale By the Bay (SBTB) is in its 9th year.

See the 2021 Scale By the Bay Program

When we started, Big Data was Hadoop, with Spark and Kafka quite new and uncertain. Deep Learning was in the lab, and distributed systems were managed by a menagerie sysadmin tools such as Ansible, Salt, Puppet and Chef. Docker and Kubernetes were in the future, but Mesos had proven itself at Twitter, and a young startup called Mesosphere was bringing it to the masses. Another thing proven at Twitter, as well as in Kafka and Spark, was Scala, but the golden era of functional programming in industry was still ahead of us.

AI was still quite unglamorous Machine Learning, Data Mining, Analytics, and Business Intelligence.

But the key themes of SBTB were already there:

Thoughtful Software Engineering

Software Architectures and Data Pipelines

Data-driven Applications at Scale

The overarching idea of SBTB is that all great scalable systems are a combination of all three. The notions pioneered by Mesos became Kubernetes and its CNCF ecosystem. Scala took hold in industry alongside Haskell, OCaml, Cloujure, and F#. New languages like Rust and Dhall emerged with similar ideas and ideals. Data pipelines were formed around APIs, REST and GraphQL, and tools like Apache Kafka. ML became AI, and every scaled business application became an AI application.

SBTB tracks the evolution of the state of the art in all three of its tracks, nicknamed Functional, Cloud, and Data. The core idea is still making distributed systems solve complex business problems at the web scale, doable by small teams of inspired and happy software engineers. Happiness comes from learning, technology choices automating away the mundane, and a scientific approach to the field. We see the arc of learning elevating through the years, as functional programming concepts drive deep into category theory, type systems are imposed on the deep learning frameworks and tensors, middleware abstracted via GraphQL formalisms, compute made serverless, AI hitting the road as model deployment, and so on. Let's visit some of the highlights of this evolution in the 2021 program.

FP for ML/AI

As more and more decisions are entrusted to AI, the need to understand what happens in the deep learning systems becomes ever more urgent. While Python remains the Data Science API of choice, the underlying libraries are written in C++. The Hasktorch team shares their approach to expose PyTorch capabilities in Haskell, building up to the transformers with the Gradual Typing. The clarity of composable representations of the deep learning systems will warm many a heart tested by the industry experience where types ensure safety and clarity.

AI

We learn how Machine Learning is used to predict financial time series. We consider the bias in AI and hardware vs software directions of its acceleration. We show how an AI platform can be built from scratch using OSS tools. Practical AI deployments is covered by DVC experiments. We look at the ways Transformers are transforming Autodesk. We see how Machine Learning is becoming reproducible with MLOps at Microsoft. We even break AI dogma with Apache NLPCraft.

Cloud

Our cloud themes include containers with serverless functions, a serverless query engine, event-driven patterns for microservices, and a series of practical stacks. We review the top CNCF projects to watch. Ever-green formidable challenges like data center migration to the cloud at Workday scale are presented by the lead engineers who made it happen. Fine points of scalability are explored beyond auto-scaling. We look at stateful reactive streams with Akka and Kafka, and the ways to retrofit your Java applications with reactive pipelines for more efficiency. See how Kubernetes can spark joy for your developers.

Core OSS Frameworks

As always, we present the best practices deploying OSS projects that our communities adopted before the rest -- Spark, Kafka, Druid, integrating them in the data pipelines and tuning for the best performance and ML integration at scale. We cover multiple aspects of tuning Spark performance, using PySpark with location and graph data. We rethink the whole ML ecosystem with Spark. We elucidate patterns of Kafka deployments for building microservice architectures.

Software Engineering

Programming language highlights include Scala 3 transition is illuminated by Dean Wampler and Bill Venners, Meaning for the Masses from Twitter, purity spanning frontend to backend, using type safety for tensor calculus in Haskell and Scala, using Rust for WebAssembly, a categorical view of ADTs, distributed systems and tracing in Swift, complex codebase troubleshooting, dependent and linear types, declarative backends, efficient arrays in Scala 3, and using GraalVM to optimize ML serving. We are also diving into Swift for distributed systems with its core team.

Other Topics

We look at multidimensional clustering, the renessance of the relational databases, cloud SQL and data lakes, location and graph data, meshes, and other themes.

There are fundamental challenges that face the industry for years to come, such as AI bias we rigirously explore, hardware and software codevelopment for AI acceleration, and moving large enterprise codebases from on-prem to the cloud, as we see with Workday.

The companies presenting include Apple, Workday, Nielsen, Uber, Google Brain, Nvidia, Domino Data Labs, Autodesk, Twitter, Microsoft, IBM, Databricks, and many others.# Scale By the Bay 2021 Program is Up!
