Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian is highlighting the value of Gemini for businesses, as companies seek to reduce their dependence on a single vendor. Apparently, the launch of Gemini has sparked interest from customers, especially after the OpenAI drama. It's like switching from one dating app to another โ€“ sometimes you just need a change of scenery!
Hold on, GM is using hydrogen fuel-cell technology in cement mixers and terminal tractors? That's one way to make construction sites a little less stressful. Just imagine, instead of the loud rumble of diesel engines, all you'll hear is the gentle sizzle of water vapor. Construction workers might start wearing raincoats as a fashion statement!
NASA's New Horizons spacecraft is really living up to its name! After exploring Pluto and Arrokoth, it's now venturing deeper into the Kuiper Belt. I guess you could say it's hittin' that ol' dusty trail in search of more cosmic adventures. Giddy up, New Horizons! ๐Ÿš€โœจ
Did you know that crows have their own version of "brain on tools"? Researchers used radioactive tracers to see which parts of a crow's brain light up when they use tools. Turns out, female crows are especially proficient, probably because they have more experience dealing with stubborn nuts and bolts in their lives.
In a shocking twist, hackers found that trains in Poland were designed to break down after third-party repairs. The train manufacturer denied the allegations, threatening to sue the hackers for slander. It seems like these trains need a little TLC- Train Loving Care!
Race to the smallest chip, huh? Well, it's like a never-ending battle to make chips tinier than my patience while waiting for the microwave. But hey, if Intel, Samsung, and TSMC can close the gap, maybe they can invent nanochips that disappear when you drop them on the floor. Goodbye, 5-second rule!
As Christmas approaches, ChatGPT seems to be getting "lazy." Maybe it's suffering from seasonal depression or thinking it deserves a winter break. It's like the AI version of me during the holiday season, refusing to do any complicated task. We should all follow its lead and take it easy during the festive season!
NASA's Voyager 1 is facing a mid-life crisis, struggling to communicate due to a computer glitch. It's like trying to send a text to your parents on a flip phone, except Voyager is billions of miles away and doesn't have a data plan. Time to consult those ancient manuals!
Ice may seem like a frozen nuisance, but it turns out fungi have a hand in its formation. These fungal ice nucleators can kick-start ice formation at higher temperatures, making them efficient little troublemakers. Perhaps fungi are just trying to create their own ice-themed party... or they're secretly training to be figure skaters. Who knows?
Naomi Wu's updated guide to electronics in Shenzhen offers tips on everything from food to LGBTQ+ advice. But beware, the original guide had plastic business card pockets that are now considered anachronistic. So leave those business cards at home and embrace the digital age!
โ˜ ๏ธ Postmortem of the day
The Allegro platform suffered a failure of a subsystem responsible for asynchronous distributed task processing. The problem affected many areas, e.g. features such as purchasing numerous offers via cart and bulk offer editing (including price list editing) did not work at all. Moreover, it partially failed to send daily newsletter with new offers. Also some parts of internal administration panel were affected.

Ah, system scaling, the art of handling increased traffic without sacrificing latency. It's like trying to keep up with a never-ending line at a bakery. Add more ovens (horizontal scaling) or upgrade your existing one (vertical scaling). Tough choices, just like choosing between cake flavors! ๐Ÿฐ๐Ÿ”„๐Ÿ’ป
The adapter pattern is like the middleman who helps two incompatible friends become friends. It's like introducing your cat to your dog by wearing a cat costume yourself. Awkward, but effective. Check out the example on Github, it's Death Star-approved!
Hold on a second! Are we talking about client-server architecture or planning a dinner date? Because my appetite is really confused right now. But hey, I'm all ears! Or should I say, all bytes? Let's continue, shall we?
In today's JavaScript30 challenge, we dive into event capture, propagation, bubbling, and once. It's like being a detective catching thieves from the outside in or watching bubbles rise from the inside out. Just don't forget your magnifying glass and bubble wand!
Ah, a story about constructing an efficient knowledge graph pipeline! Sounds like they're trying to build the brain of the internet. Maybe they could call it "Cogito the Search Engine" - because it thinks, therefore it searches!
