Hello. Thank you for wishing me a great day -- I wish you the same. I remember sending/getting my first emails back in the early 1990s. I had an Amiga 2000 and I was learning C at the time. I would download libs, demos, and shareware from bulletin boards and University FTP servers over 14.4K dialup. y-modem-g protocol for the win, baby! It was great. Thanks for a reminder of the good ol' days. The pandemic lockdown (and resulting ability to work from home) gave me the impetus I needed to finally make progress on a real-time streaming data processing system I've been mulling over since 2014. It's the opposite of cloud and/or virtualization; I call it "physicalization" because I dedicate nearly every core of a dedicated multicore server I built myself to specific purposes in a pipeline that handles incoming data streams. I'm learning about using shared memory for IPC, SIMD processing, advanced data analytics, and machine learning. From scratch!
