Static Files - SPA (React) Single functions It can be in JS, Python, GO, PHP 18:07 - What can’t you host on Serverless? Entire applications Large apps have slow coldstarts 500mb limit 23:40 - Raw Providers Google Cloud Azure AWS Lambda SAP Red Hat IBM Cloud Functions Cloudflare Workers Kind of cool because they work like service workers where you can intercept any HTTP request 27:33 - Easy Providers + Frameworks Begin + Arc.codes Zeit Now + Next.js Anything + Serverless Netlify AWS Amplify Apex Up - TJ Holowaychuk Open Faas + Digital Ocean Links Heroku Digital Ocean Meteor Galaxy Codepen Radio: Preprocessors and Lambda Zeit Now Wes’ tweet about serverless @maxsteenbergen uses.tech Google Cloud Azure AWS Lambda SAP Red Hat IBM Cloud Functions Cloudflare Workers Begin Arc.codes Severless Netlify AWS Amplify Apex Up Open Faas @tjholowaychuk Scott tries Begin.com SyntaxFM Reddit ××× SIIIIICK ××× PIIIICKS ××× Scott: Matt McMuscles YouTube Channel Wes: Modern Vintage Gamer Shameless Plugs Scott: Scott’s YouTube Channel Wes: Beginner Javascript Course - Use the coupon code ‘Syntax’ for $10 off!

Managing Next Generation Energy Systems Cambridge University Background Stakeholders working with energy systems have to make complex decisions formulated from risk-based assessments about the future. The move towards more renewables in our energy systems complicates matters even further, requiring the development of an integrated power grid and continuous and steady transformation of the UK power system. Network flows must be managed reliably under uncertain demands, uncertain supply, emerging network technologies and possible failures and, further, prices in related markets can be highly volatile. Mathematicians working with engineers and economists, can make significant contributions to address such issues, by helping to develop fit-for-purpose models for next generation energy systems. These interdisciplinary approaches are looking to address a range of associated problems, including modelling, prediction, simulation, control, market and mechanism design and optimisation. This knowledge exchange workshop was part of the four months Res Integrating Nutrition, Psychology and Neuroscience to Measure Infant Development in the UK & Gambia Talk by Dr Sarah Lloyd Fox, Birkbeck College, on infant brain imaging in The Gambia Rise Up Mentor Derek Kempker Welcome to Rise Up Mentor (formerly, Summits of Life), a platform that advocates for lifelong learning and constant improvement in every aspect of life. As someone who’s experienced both the valleys and peaks of life, I understand that while we cannot control all the obstacles that come our way, we do have the power to choose whether we get back up or not. And each time we choose to rise again, we become stronger.But why settle for just getting back up? By consistently striving to become better and wiser, we can reduce our chances of being knocked down in the first place. That’s why I started Rise Up Mentor – to encourage and motivate you to continuously improve in all areas of life, including vocation, marriage, friendship, personal development, health, parenting, lifestyle, spirituality, intellect, and finance.Although I am a Certified Master Life Coach, I don’t consider myself an expert or master, because I don’t feel there is such a thing as mastering life, but it is possible to Kaizen Blueprint Aldo Chandra "Kaizen" is a Japanese term for continuous improvement. This podcast provides a blueprint to learn about health, wealth, relationships and everything else in between. Through our podcast, we strive to inspire, educate, and motivate our audience to cultivate a mindset of lifelong learning, productivity, and personal development.
