A journey of writing my own Kubernetes
- The author of this article outlines their journey of creating their own Kubernetes and shares some key points and flow they met during development.
- They explain that to truly understand how a program works, you need to learn how it is built and try to write it yourself.
- They share some prerequisites and a disclaimer before sharing code and demonstrating a running node with kubelet and three pods with a node port service on it.
- They explain how a watcher-listener action is implemented in Kubernetes and point to the source code for more details on the pods and watcher-listener creations.
- The author then spends more time detailing the creation of the iptables chain of services, with the creation of a ClusterIP service and then a NodePort service.
- They explain the creation of endpoints that “point” to a pod and how the kube-proxy listens to new services and endpoint creations, creating a new IPTables chain that masquerades and loads the requests to the pods based on a service selector for load balancing.
- They also mention that the kube-proxy has another listener that matches existing endpoints to actions like when an existing pod fails or is deleted and deletes the address in the endpoint.
- The author advises readers to go into more detail by exploring the source code under pkg/kube-proxy section.

What is Mutex and How to Use it in Golang?
- During the development of LiveAPI, an Auto API documentation generation tool, I needed to implement a robust queue mechanism that scaled based on the number of server machine cores.
- A Mutex (Mutual Exclusion) is a locking mechanism that prevents race conditions by ensuring only one goroutine can access a shared resource at a time.
- To manage concurrent job execution in Golang, we can use a Mutex from the sync package.
- There are two types of Mutexes in Golang: sync.Mutex and sync.RWMutex.

Rspack with Module federation V2 is the future
- The module federation team cared deeply about the DevX in their latest release.
- Rspack (webpack-based bundler) hit the V1 mark and offers faster and out-of-the-box support for code splitting and module federation.
- The project setup involves using pnpm as the package manager, React as the frontend framework, and TypeScript for generating types out of remotes.
- The apps are set up using rsbuild (build tool for rspack) with proper configurations for module federation and shared dependencies.

What is a CDN and why is it used ?
- A CDN, or Content Delivery Network, is a network of servers located all around the world.
- Instead of fetching files from one main server, a CDN delivers files from the server closest to the user, resulting in faster loading times.
- CDNs are especially useful for large or international websites, but may not be necessary for small websites with a localized audience.

How to Make Small Language Models Outperform Large Language Models Using DSPy!
- To overcome problems that arise when interpreting language models through poorly constructed prompts, DSPy can simplify the process, providing instructions that tell language models what to do rather than how to respond, achieving greater accuracy in outputs.
- DSPy is a comprehensive framework programmed for language models that facilitates the development and optimization of AI systems by focusing on structured programming and optimization techniques.
- This innovative approach enables small language models, equipped with optimized programs through DSPy, to surpass larger models that rely on traditional prompting techniques.
- The approach enhances language model performance in various tasks, demonstrating that programming modules and restricted inputs reduce opportunities for incorrect interpretation, an essential factor in NLU applications.
- The dataset of Astronautics Multiple Choice Questions and Answers was selected to develop LM programs that can understand and generate accurate responses in the astronautical field.
- Several preprocessing steps, including removing unnecessary columns and evaluating and adding correct answers, were taken to refine the dataset for its input into the LM program.
- DSPy provides a framework that can be configured in various language models, making use of OpenAI, Databricks, Local LMs, Ollama, and LiteLLM, among others.
- DSPy offers a suite of optimizers, including Automatic Few-Shot Learning Techniques, Automatic Instruction Optimization, and Automatic Fine-tuning.
- In the implementation, 'BootstrapFewShotRandomSearch()' from the automatic Few-Shot Learning Techniques employed random search to optimize selection and incorporation of the best few-shot samples from the training set into the LM program.
- Once an LM program is optimized, it can be saved for future inference to ensure quick and accurate access and utilization of its capabilities to perform subsequent tasks.
