Building a Subaru Forester Camper!

We built a camper in our Suburu forester! It was quite easier than I imagined. It just took a day of taking measurements, going over to Home Depot, picking out plywood, getting those cut by a nice Home Depot employee, then screwing in some wood screws with a drill. All done in a day!

Now let's see if this setup gets us a bit better sleeping experience and good amount of storage to shove in our climbing gear... :)

    how do you access the spare tyre?

      The wood thing is pretty easy to take out, so we just take it out whenever we want to take passengers or access the spare tire!

Benchmarks: Dask Distributed vs. Ray for Dask Workloads

Image
  Dask Workloads  In this section, I detail the dask workloads that will be used to benchmark two cluster backends - Ray and Dask Distributed. In summary, my dask workload involves processing ~3.3 Petabytes of ~6.06 million input files with dask-based Processing Chain and producing ~14.88 Terabytes of ~1.86 million output files. Input Data ~6.06 million ~550MB files, totaling ~3.3 Petabytes  Each file represents a N-dimensional numerical tensor (np.ndarray).  Processing Chain: How we go from Input data to Output data (Dask Task Graphs) We use  Xarray  / Dask APIs for  lazy , numerical computations on out-of-core multidimensional tensors. Per 3 input files, we generate 1 output file using below  Dask Task Graph  (auto generated by using Dask APIs) The Task Graph is consisted of small, Dask-level 'tasks'; tasks can be grouped into 3 actions:   Load Download file from S3 and load each file into 2D  np.ndarray  of type np.float32 Convert  np.ndarray  into  dask.array  of chunksize

Parallel processing libraries in Python - Dask vs Ray

At work, I'm working with enabling numerical computations/transformations of N-dimensional tensors that cannot fit in a single machine's memory. They are "big data" in the order of TBs-PBs. The data types are numerical arrays; e.g. np.array. Data processing / analysis code are written in Python. I looked at two libraries to enable parallel computing within the Python ecosystem. The two are Dask and Ray. I made some comparison between them.   Dask Dask is a flexible library for parallel computing in Python  https://docs.dask.org/en/latest/ Ray Ray is a fast and simple framework for building and running distributed applications. https://ray.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ (Originally published 02/25/2020, updated 03/03/2021 as per new features in the libraries) Dimension Dask Ray Color Code Justification Efficient Data Sharing Between Nodes  Source:  https://distributed.dask.org/en/latest/serialization.html Data sharing happens via TCP messages between workers.

[Mountaineering] (08/13/18) Mt. Rainier Summit

Image
I did Mt. Rainier summit with RMI! Program details here Route we took: https://www.mountainproject.com/route/105877100/ingraham-glacier-disappointment-cleaver-route  Motivation:  When I got to Seattle in the summer of 2017, I thought "hiking" Mt. Rainier would be an iconic thing to do. I only knew a little about mountaineering back then so I had no idea what was actually involved. I saw the RMI program online and signed up to be on the waitlist. In February 2018, while sitting at work, I got an email that I got off the waitlist. I think I was feeling particularly adventurous that day because I just thought "why the hell not!" and signed up.  Well.. when I came home and began to actually look into it (facepalm), I only then realized it was kind of a big deal! Not only were there so much mountaineering knowledge and equipment involved, which were all new to me, I realized that the fitness requirement was no joke. Well... time to train!  Training:  From March 20
