Still impressed by Cassandra's performance: 3.7B writes at 0.014ms, 51M reads at 0.30ms on my 12-node AWS cluster. Rack-aware across 3 AZs. Proper modeling makes all the difference for distributed systems. #Cassandra #NoSQL #DistributedSystems #AWS

Thinking about starting a new bachelor's degree in Applied and Computational Mathematics. Maybe it's a crazy

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

How can I be sad when my Apache Cassandra cluster achieved 99.99% uptime with zero data loss over 12 months of operation, delivering exceptional performance: 13μs P50 write latency and 380μs P50 read latency?

When the conference date is approaching and you need to finish all the fine-tuning experiments asap. There’s no time to sleep. 😴
