Eye of the Gods: A Mindlord Novel by Igor Swann
Eye of the Gods: A Mindlord Novel by Igor Swann.
In a brief description of the most important events in earth’s recent history, the following facts were uncovered. Mythological gods are a reality, although they are allegedly extinct, and will most certainly be extinct if they do not shut-the-hell-up. Anal probing weather balloon pilots do not probe much, but they do participate in the occasional abduction. They subsequently apologized and promised not to do it again.
More significantly, historian had to reclassify elves, dwarves, mages, and size-changing blue monkeys under non-fiction, and blondes under ‘highly volatile, keep away from sharp objects if you know what is good for you.’
Nevertheless, in another epic tale, Angel and friends will attempt to save the universe and other stuff from dysfunctional deities, things with fangs, things without fangs and his impetuous wife all over again.
Goddess Gone Fishing for a Map of the Universe - Excerpt
Sheri-D Wilson's Goddess Gone Fishing for a Map of the Universe transports you into the “now” of metaphysical possibility, to fly between solitude and wild abandon, from Buddha blink to cosmic flare.
At once organic, spiritual and technical, Goddess Gone Fishing for a Map of the Universe uses QR codes to send readers outside the book to new vantage points. Wilson says, “QR codes bridge the gap between pencil and tech where poetry is high paced, high energy and the perspective is technology.” In performance Sheri-D moves outside the book; QR is outside the book. The experience of poetry is lifted off the written page and transported to a totally new platform.
Pervading the book is Wilson’s belief in an upsurge of feminine divine energy that will quell the madness of our times.

The five storied palace – a journey around the symbolic cosmos..
This document provides an overview and comparison of cosmological models in Dante's Divine Comedy and Buddhist scriptures. It describes the five levels or "storeys" of the traditional cosmological palace: 1) Middle Earth, the realm of humans; 2) Hell, below the earth's surface; 3) The Otherworld, a mystical realm accessed through sacred places in nature; 4) Purgatory on Mount Meru, a place of moral improvement; 5) The celestial spheres of planets and stars surrounding the earth. Parallels are drawn between the Buddhist conception of a flat, disc-shaped world surrounded by rings of golden mountains and the Greek model of crystalline spheres influencing earthly events.
The legend of sleepy hollow
This document contains a collection of inspirational images created by Peyton Pugmire related to Washington Irving's short story "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow". The images depict scenes and characters from the story, including the Sleepy Hollow churchyard, covered bridges, scarecrows, portraits of Ichabod Crane and other characters, Ichabod's primitive classroom, a Halloween party scene, Ichabod walking home at night, and the climactic chase scene. The captions provide analysis of the atmosphere, characters, and storytelling elements conveyed through the visuals.
Jenny Randles - Alien Contact - The First Fifty Years
In June 1947, American pilot Kenneth Arnold observed a formation of unusual flying objects moving faster than any known aircraft. This sighting sparked widespread reports of "flying saucers" across the United States. In July 1947, the Roswell Army Air Field issued a press release stating that they had recovered a crashed "flying disc" on a ranch near Roswell, New Mexico. However, the US government quickly claimed it was merely a weather balloon and insisted all reports of the crashed object be suppressed, fueling speculation of a government cover-up. This became one of the most famous alleged UFO crashes and marked the unofficial beginning of the modern UFO phenomenon.
Existence of our problems
This document discusses perspectives on humanity's small size relative to the vastness of the universe. It notes that all of humanity, along with all of our conflicts, civilizations, and creations fit inside a tiny blue point when viewed from space. The document encourages reflecting on how small our problems truly are and considering that God knows all things, from the number of hairs on our heads to what is happening on Earth and in the seas. It questions how people can deny God's existence when observing the immense creation of the universe.

1. The Emperor's Choice ring depicts a peony, which has long been a symbol of wealth and power, as well as a cabbage head, representing the Roman emperor Diocletian who preferred growing cabbage to political intrigue.
2. The Desert Music ring depicts images related to desert landscapes like vines, birds, and sounds of the desert wind and camel bells that blend into an "unforgettable Desert Music."
3. The Gothic Fantasy ring elaborately interweaves symbols allowing for various interpretations like a raven, pterodactyl, or medieval scenes and expresses the wearer's individuality.
4. The Terra Incognita ring

Discover top-tier mobile app development services, offering innovative solutions for iOS and Android. Enhance your business with custom, user-friendly mobile applications.Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

HCL Notes und Domino Lizenzkostenreduzierung in der Welt von DLAU
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-und-domino-lizenzkostenreduzierung-in-der-welt-von-dlau/
DLAU und die Lizenzen nach dem CCB- und CCX-Modell sind für viele in der HCL-Community seit letztem Jahr ein heißes Thema. Als Notes- oder Domino-Kunde haben Sie vielleicht mit unerwartet hohen Benutzerzahlen und Lizenzgebühren zu kämpfen. Sie fragen sich vielleicht, wie diese neue Art der Lizenzierung funktioniert und welchen Nutzen sie Ihnen bringt. Vor allem wollen Sie sicherlich Ihr Budget einhalten und Kosten sparen, wo immer möglich. Das verstehen wir und wir möchten Ihnen dabei helfen!
Wir erklären Ihnen, wie Sie häufige Konfigurationsprobleme lösen können, die dazu führen können, dass mehr Benutzer gezählt werden als nötig, und wie Sie überflüssige oder ungenutzte Konten identifizieren und entfernen können, um Geld zu sparen. Es gibt auch einige Ansätze, die zu unnötigen Ausgaben führen können, z. B. wenn ein Personendokument anstelle eines Mail-Ins für geteilte Mailboxen verwendet wird. Wir zeigen Ihnen solche Fälle und deren Lösungen. Und natürlich erklären wir Ihnen das neue Lizenzmodell.
Nehmen Sie an diesem Webinar teil, bei dem HCL-Ambassador Marc Thomas und Gastredner Franz Walder Ihnen diese neue Welt näherbringen. Es vermittelt Ihnen die Tools und das Know-how, um den Überblick zu bewahren. Sie werden in der Lage sein, Ihre Kosten durch eine optimierte Domino-Konfiguration zu reduzieren und auch in Zukunft gering zu halten.

GNSS spoofing via SDR (Criptored Talks 2024)
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.
