Some reference on how to connect to a Raspberry Pi running in the same LAN network. I’ve been using Raspberry Pi running in home, for last 10 months. Until a month ago, the sole purpose of the RPi is to filter off the ads using Pi-hole1, then a speed test module was scheduled to run on it. By the setup, the speedtest-cli runs every 10 mins and fetches internet into csv file.

I’ve been working with Big data since 2017. As I’m from data warehousing background, it was easier for me to understand what’s what, and build an analogy between DWH & big data frameworks. However, the various file formats used in HDFS always caught me off guard. In DWH, I never considered how the files are stored in DB, it’s managed by the database, maybe DBA might know how its done at the backend, as a DB developer it never bothered me.

This is 2nd installment of the story. I’m trying to arrange beautiful photos of the last decade. The photos are all captured by me. The foggy view of training center on a December morning. The first time I had a taste of resort-like place. 2011 - The Training Days The Kevin Mitnick replied and followed me, after a tweet about Ghost in the Wires Kevin Mitnick follows me This was one only outreach programme that I took part in.

The 2010’s was my 20’s. I was in the middle of under graduate course when the decade begun. An average engineering graduate who doesn’t know what engineering really was or what’s the future is offering. The end of year marks the recruitment to my current employer. Yes right, I’m with the employer for almost a decade. IIRC 13k was my 1st my first salary. Couldn’t recall how I spent it, guess gave it to my mom.

The generation born between 1985-95 has more or less seen the technology evolution from the fron seat. The advent of internet, landline giving up its place to mobile phones, more desk jobs than the labour intensive work. Through this journey, the lifestyle got altered to a large extent. Some of the changes are just an improvemnt to our life, while some or controversial in nature. I call them controversial as harmful effects are neither proved nor denied by scientific community.

My primary source of Python and Python related news was/is Python podcast, since 2016. In 2018, I came to know about Pycon taking place in Cleveland, OH. Dan Bader’s vlog on PyCon ‘18 was another pull factor towards the PyCon. Due to the ticket pricing I couldn’t make it to it. In H2 of 2018, I returned to India, and was looking forward to attend PyConIndia, which should be affordable.

Variables In Python, the variables are assigned with the type based on the content. string_variable = 'some text' int_variable = 33 print(type(string_variable), type(int_variable)) And, these variables are allowed to change in a program. In Rust, the variables can either be mutable or immutable. By default, the variables are immutable. Mutable - Values are allowed to change Immutable - Values are not allowed to change fn main(){letdefault_variable=2;println!("The value in default_variable is {}",{default_variable});default_variable=3;//Here, the code will fail.

What is rustup, rustc & rustdoc ? rustup- Used to update the latest Rust version. rustc filename.rs - Used to compile rust source code. rustdoc - Rust documentation is generated from this command. This can generate documentation from markdown files. Also, it show the Rustbook opens in browser when called as rustup docs Project initialization After installing Rust, we should initialize a project using Cargo cargo init project_path - This will create a project folder of below file structure.

Podcasts. That’s how I got introduced to the Rust language. In one of the PythonBytes episode I heard about the PyOxidizer for the first time. Basically, it uses Rust to bundle Python code into an executable code. There is already quite a number of modules to convert code into an executable file. According to Michael Kennedy, the Git repo is so active, that made me to explore what the PyOxidizer is made of.

The social media is made of several bubbles. The bubbles, each of us build around us, with like minded people. With the bubble is well constructed, we live and slowly start believing it is the reflection of the actual world. This is what happened to me in recent times. There is some negative news keep getting shared to me via whatsapp, twitter or facebook. The negativity comes in the form of political corruption to pedophilia.
