Serving a Keras model using Tensorflow serving and Docker
A Keras model can be created in various ways, for example using the <a href="https://keras.io/getting-started/sequential-model-guide/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">sequential model</a>:
Serving web applications with Apache
Let's imagine we have a server with Apache2 listening on port 80. Since port 80 is used, other web apps, developed for example with Node.js, must use another port. Consequently, one would need to open a new port on one's router every time a new app is developed.
Sign holders for COVID-19 prevention
Compared to other countries, Japan did not enforce a strict lockdown on its population during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, most bars and restaurants continued their operations as usual. However, in order to prevent the spread of the virus as much as possible, the staff of my local pub printed out signs asking customers to not leave their table without wearing a mask.
Smart home control panel (SHCP)
I've been using <a href="https://www.home-assistant.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Home Assistant</a> to control my home IoT devices for a while. Although it fulfills all my needs, I wanted to make my own system so as to get a fully customized smart home control panel and learn how to build such an application in the process.
Smart outlet setup
When used for the first time, the device will have no knowledge of what WiFi to connect to. Consequently, the smart outlet will generate its own, prefixed with the name <em>socket.</em>
Solar power setup
I got my hands on a 600W 12V inverter so I decided to experiment with generating my own electricity.
Solving Kong latency problems in Kubernetes
Kong is a popular API gateway that can be used as a reverse proxy for clients to access back-end services. It can be run as a Docker container and, as such, can be deployed to Kubernetes. However, when doing so, requests might be severely impacted by unusually high latency. This can be solved by configuring the order in which Kong resolves DNS records.
Some C concepts
C is widely considered to be a difficult programming language. Here are various code snippets to help make some sense of it.
Swift basics
Here are some of the basis of the Swift programming language
TDD for an Express application
TDD has been proven to significantly reduce the amount of bugs in software releases. Moreover, with CI/CD systems, tests can be run automatically before the application deployment, preventing a faulty application to reach its end user. This guide goes through the steps required to set up a TDD workflow with an Express application.
