Costa Rica Real Estate Opportunities tour, bargains for both self directed IR...Pacific Lots of Costa Rica
This slide deck is for a Webinar that will be broadcast February 2014 about opportunities to purchase discount real estate properties in Costa Rica, how to join a scouting tour visiting projects that have given discounts and special incentives to work with the organizers. The tour will offer a 3 day visit to Costa Rica that will be free of charge to anyone who purchases any of the special deals the team has negotiated with the sellers. Great bargains will be available including large discounts, two for one offers, percentage off specials, pre-development and founders club purchase opportunities. In every case the organizers have done extensive review and due diligence on all the projects and properties represented.

Here's a great slide show about Costa Rica, looking at why so many North Americans have chosen to retire, own rental property, vacation property or second homes in this great country. We look at the benefits, safety, accessibility, healthcare, risk, quality of life and cost of living among other things. We also specifically look at the southern Pacific region of Costa Rica and how to tour our properties on our 4 day all inclusive discovery weekends to check out real estate and retirement/vacation home and rental opportunities.
A presentation about Costa Rica and why so many North Americans and Europeans are choosing to relocate, own real estate and property in this great country. We look at the political, social and economic outlook and also review the largest residential development of homes for expats.
Presented to the NSTA teacher delegation in July 2010, this presentation works to offer a working history of scientific research in Costa Rica. Presented by Holbrook Travel Field Director, Paulo Valerio, this talk featured an overview of key scientific discoveries of Costa Rica in the last century. www.holbrooktravel.com

Costa Rica is unique. While sharing with its neighbors the experiences of colonial exploitation and commodity-export dependency, Costa Rica managed to rise above. Instead of recurring cycles of dictatorship and poverty, Costa Rica boasts an enduring democracy and the highest standards of living in Central America. What’s more, Costa Rica is unique among all nations for its ‘unarmed’ political democracy and ‘green’ economic revolution.

Este trabajo es más bien una investigación acerca de los congresos y el turismo que se dan en Costa Rica.
Mi objetivo al hacer este trabajo es dar a notar las riquezas de Costa Rica, riquezas de todo tipo. Además su gente es muy amable y hospitalaria, y harán todo lo posible para que uno se enamore de su bello país.
Este ppt incluye imagenes sobre simbolos, lugares, costumbres ,etc de Costa Rica. Me lo envio Laura, una ex companera de la maestria de espanol en la U de Alabama, USA hace algun tiempo.

Unleashing the Power of Data_ Choosing a Trusted Analytics Platform.pdfEnterprise Wired
In this guide, we'll explore the key considerations and features to look for when choosing a Trusted analytics platform that meets your organization's needs and delivers actionable intelligence you can trust.
Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.
The Building Blocks of QuestDB, a Time Series Databasejavier ramirez
Talk Delivered at Valencia Codes Meetup 2024-06.
Traditionally, databases have treated timestamps just as another data type. However, when performing real-time analytics, timestamps should be first class citizens and we need rich time semantics to get the most out of our data. We also need to deal with ever growing datasets while keeping performant, which is as fun as it sounds.
It is no wonder time-series databases are now more popular than ever before. Join me in this session to learn about the internal architecture and building blocks of QuestDB, an open source time-series database designed for speed. We will also review a history of some of the changes we have gone over the past two years to deal with late and unordered data, non-blocking writes, read-replicas, or faster batch ingestion.

Enhanced Enterprise Intelligence with your personal AI Data Copilot.pdfGetInData
Recently we have observed the rise of open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) that are community-driven or developed by the AI market leaders, such as Meta (Llama3), Databricks (DBRX) and Snowflake (Arctic). On the other hand, there is a growth in interest in specialized, carefully fine-tuned yet relatively small models that can efficiently assist programmers in day-to-day tasks. Finally, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures have gained a lot of traction as the preferred approach for LLMs context and prompt augmentation for building conversational SQL data copilots, code copilots and chatbots.
In this presentation, we will show how we built upon these three concepts a robust Data Copilot that can help to democratize access to company data assets and boost performance of everyone working with data platforms.
Why do we need yet another (open-source ) Copilot?
How can we build one?

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.
