Papers with Code 5 years ago

While there's probably some value in posting the resources "everyone knows", Papers with Code was submitted multiple times in the past few years, which is a pretty common HN thing (whether this behavior is desired is up to dang and the community I guess).

I remember a talk where someone who did both software and hardware development for Intel talked about "Hardware development cycle fro software developers" or something like that at some conference, and the cost of simulating CPUs or fabricating them for a round of testing was absolutly mindblowing. Also - the fact the a 1 in a billion bug will happen multiple times a second on a modern CPU.

P.S Did anyone else happen to run into this talk? I tried to find on youtube and could'nt find anything related.

Apache NiFi 6 years ago

NiFi is intended as a serious workhorse, we run it on a cluster with 256GM of RAM and over 20 cores for each server (on-prem), the 2GB of disk storage is negligible in any sort of scale (Just like the dual core/8gb machine)

From what I see in the B2B space, acquisitions are a major avenue for quick innovation. Large corporations buy smaller startup, do some integration into existing solutions and come out with a new product (If they don't just keep the new company as a separate costumer-facing identity (Look at NetApp + SolidFire, or the whole Dell-EMC conglomerate)

It allows you to define a schema, and then compile it to various languages and have multiple applications in multiple languages "speak" the same class, down to the binary level (for RPC, blob storage etc).

A different network connection (With physical infrastructure you might actually use a completely different network) that you can use to move private keys or any other sensetive information without exposing it to the Internet. We use such a network to monitor all of our infrastructure, and for iLo.
