  9 reasons to use Zsh

Like majority *nix users, I have been using bash for many years. Sometimes I feel uncomfortable with bash. I tried use some other shells as well such as ksh, tcsh and zsh which I am going to talk about. A few days ago, I found an open source project ranking in the 6th named oh-my-zsh on Github, I downloaded it and had a try with it. It's amazing. We should use zsh to replace bash now. Why do we need to use zsh? Here is a 4 minutes YouTube video which shows many reasons why we should switch from ...

  How Artificial Intelligence Is Helping Fight Environmental Challenges

Environmental challenges like climate change, global warming, air pollution, etc., all pose a severe threat to humans.  According to the World Health Organization (WHO), around 3.6 billion people are already living in areas vulnerable to climate change. Climate change is predicted to result in an additional 250,000 deaths between 2030 and 2050. To solve environmental problems that have long presented difficulties for ecosystems and communities, artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a...

  The Future of AI Chips Might Not Be GPU

In the layout of AI computing architectures, the model of CPUs working in collaboration with accelerator chips has become a typical AI deployment solution. CPUs act as providers of basic computing power, while accelerator chips are responsible for enhancing computational performance, aiding in the efficient execution of algorithms. Common AI accelerator chips can be categorized into three main types based on their technological paths: GPU, FPGA, and ASIC. In this competition, GPUs have emerged a...

  Mock Solutions for GoLang Unit Test

In Go development, Unit Test is inevitable. And it is essential to use Mock when writing Unit Tests. Mock can help test isolate the business logic it depends on, enabling it to compile, link, and run independently. Mock needs Stub. Stub function replaces the real business logic function, returns the required result, and assists the test. I involved the related test code for Controllers while writing Kubernetes Operator recently, and there would be mocks for GRPC and HT...

  Breakdown Kubernetes Container Runtime

Keeping on learning Kubernetes piece by piece and having a deeper understanding of its advantages, I am no longer shocked at its rapid development and popularity. Though backed by big companies like Google is undoubtedly the push, its design, features, and convenience are the biggest attraction. Most of all, it disintegrates the monolithic Internet system governance and lifecycle and offers a new management method. Kubernetes is a set of concepts, including various resource types like Pod, Deplo...
