A pole mounted substation is an outdoor electrical equipment that steps down high voltage power for distribution to residential and commercial customers. It connects to an 11kV line through a gang isolator and horn gap fuses. A transformer then steps down the voltage to 415V for customers. An oil circuit breaker automatically isolates the transformer from customers in the event of a fault. Pole mounted substations are generally used for transformer capacities up to 200kVA and provide power for applications like private homes, agriculture, wind farms, and rural electrification.

Rococo and Neoclassicism were 18th century artistic movements. Rococo developed in 18th century France as a more playful alternative to the grandeur of Baroque, featuring ornate decor, pastel colors, and asymmetrical designs. It spread through Europe in painting, sculpture, and interior design. By the late 18th century, Rococo fell from favor and was replaced by Neoclassicism, which drew inspiration from classical antiquity and aligned with Enlightenment philosophy. Neoclassicism featured revival of Greco-Roman styles and themes of reason and order. Both artistic periods influenced architecture, visual arts, literature, and music during the 18th century.

To prepare land for a vegetable garden, one must first find the space and measure it. Then remove weeds and stones. Next, use a machine called a "mulilla mecanica" to turn the soil and add fertilizer. The soil preparation method depends on the vegetables, such as making raised beds called "caballones" for potatoes. Key tools include a hoe, mulilla mecanica, shovel, wheelbarrow, compost, and scarecrow.
Ecological chemical products are substances that are not absorbed by land or plants and are environmentally friendly. They are used to fight pests and microorganisms without harming the environment. Examples include herbs like thyme, chamomile, tobacco, and garlic, which are used against worms, caterpillars, and other problematic insects. Other natural methods include using beer to kill centipedes, ash or lime dust to deter snails and slugs, canola oil spray for whiteflies and flying insects, and releasing ladybugs or lacewings to control aphids.
This document discusses ecological fertilizers, including organic and inorganic types. Organic fertilizers are made from natural products and are better for small vegetable gardens because they are cheaper and absorbed more slowly by the land. Inorganic fertilizers contain chemical products and are better for large-scale production, but may have negative long-term effects. The document recommends making compost as an organic fertilizer by following instructions in an included video.
The document discusses what a greenhouse is and how it works. It explains that a greenhouse is a closed structure covered with glass or plastic that maintains higher temperatures and humidity inside to support plant growth.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

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?
This talk will cover ScyllaDB Architecture from the cluster-level view and zoom in on data distribution and internal node architecture. In the process, we will learn the secret sauce used to get ScyllaDB's high availability and superior performance. We will also touch on the upcoming changes to ScyllaDB architecture, moving to strongly consistent metadata and tablets.
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
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).
