Posted Grid/ Clustering, books on Friday, February 10th, 2006.
Here is the latest reading list. I have had an interest in non- .net based clustering solutions. I have implemented some Grid stuff using Alchemi http://www.alchemi.net/ - but I want to extend into the linux HPC space now. The optimization work I have done in the past - as well as the machine learning would all benefit HUGE from cluster-ability.
As to Ruby on Rails. I just want to get the buz on Rails. I do not plan on doing any web work - esp with Rails - but I do like and use Ruby - so understanding the framework that is bringing Ruby to fame seems worthy.
Strong willed kids…. My 3.5 year old is awesome - really - brilliant, sweet, everything good. That being said - he pushes bounds to no end - so I got this book recommend to help my wife and I bear up and help him to have less conflict with us as I am sure he does not love that….
PS - I also ALWAYS am listening to something from http://www.audible.com and reading a few mags on the train - I will post audio books and mags soon.
I am an information input JUNKIE!!!
