Find out how DIYer and TV host Trisha Hershberger’s journey through PC gaming keeps evolving Trisha Hershberger first fell into technology as a result of her gaming habits. At that time her parents didn’t think this was a hobby for girls, because in the ’80s video games were primarily marketed towards boys. But fortunately, her parents eventually gave in. Her dad brought home an old, used Commodore 64 from a guy he knew at work. That was her first foray into gaming.

Eventually she got a Nintendo Entertainment System – at the same time her friends were moving onto Super Nintendo.

AWS Academy, 대학생 취업을 위한 교육 프로그램을 소개합니다! 아시다시피 고등 교육은 전 세계가 고민 중인 문제입니다. 등록금 인상으로 인한 비용 부담 증가, 공평한 교육 기회와 접근성의 문제, 고용주가 필요로 하는 자질과 졸업생이 갖춘 역량 사이의 격차 등이 대표적인 문제점입니다. 이 같은 추세로 인해 전 세계적으로 교육 시스템에 대한 불신이 심화되고 있습니다. Gallup 여론 조사에 따르면 미국에서 고등 교육에 대한 신뢰도가 2015년부터 꾸준히 하락했고 영국에서는 학교에서 쌓은 지식의 가치에 의구심을 갖는 학생들이 많은 것으로 나타났습니다. 우려되는 상황이긴 하지만 이 같은 추세는 혁신과 협업을 실현할 수 있는 새로운 기회도 함께 불러오고 있습니다. 고등 교육 기관들은 변화하는 환경에 대한 대응 능력과 경쟁력을 유지하고 궁극적으로 학생들을 위한 더 나은 학습 환경과 성과를 실현하기 위해 비즈니스 모델과 접근 방식을 재정립할 수밖에 없는 상황에 놓였습니다. 하지만 직장에서 제 역할을 할 수 있는 인재로 새로운 세대를 육성하는 일을 고등 교육에만 맡겨둘 순 없습니다. 산업계에도 교육 기관과 협력하고 지원할 [ more… ]

Two of the features new with NGINX Unit 1.16.0 are familiar to fans of NGINX Open Source and NGINX Plus: the fallback routing option is similar to the NGINX try_files directive, and the upstreams object introduces round‑robin load balancing of requests across a dedicated group of backend servers. The fallback Routing Option The first new feature enables you to define an alternative routing action for cases when a static file can’t be served for some reason.
