1/10 🧵 ¿Qué cambió en la @LIDOMRD en las últimas 5 temporadas? Más carreras, abridores más cortos y un Escogido bicampeón que se transforma en el RR.
Un hilo con datos de MLB (2021-22 a 2025-26) 👇

☕ How Java programs can reach close-to-native performance for matrix-multiply computations on hardware with accelerated MMA support, such as NVIDIA GPUs
☕ How the same Java Tensor API can be mapped across different parallel programming models and vendors while remaining portable for source code and runtime scheduling parameters

Who said you need Python for ML? ☕️🤖
@jralmontec and I, benchmarked Logistic Regression across 4 major Java ML libraries, evaluating accuracy, ceremony, solvers, and ergonomics:
• Smile • Tribuo • Weka • DeepNetts (JSR 381)

“En RD no hay personal calificado.”
…Proceden a contratar una multinacional que termina subcontratando exactamente el mismo capital humano que descartaron inicialmente, pero ahora facturándoles en dólares, con slides en inglés y un “know-how” que casi nunca aparece. 😜😝

Spring: The Documentary arrives 7th May! 🍃
Spring didn’t start as a framework, it started as a reaction to complexity in enterprise Java.
What followed was a movement that redefined how modern applications are built, from Spring Boot to the cloud era.
This is the story behind one of the most influential technologies in software.
"When operating on large volumes of data, rather than transferring the data from storage to a separate machine that processes it, it can be faster to bring the computation to the machine that already has the data" - Martin Kleppmann, DDIA
@Brayanmnz_, this takes me back to our “OK, But What About Predictive AI?” talk:
"Bring the model to the data, not the data to the model"
