My last week in Zurich has come to a close. I won’t be back again until May when I bring the rest of my family. It’s been busy with classes in most mornings and a self-learning schedule for the rest of the day (plus various talks and meetings). I surely haven’t been idle.
This week, I got to play with MapReduce, Google’s system for distributing tasks across many machines, and the distributed systems it runs on. Very impressive! These guys have the best toys!
I got out to do some more photography tonight, too. Since it’ll be the last time I’m in the city without my family, I might as well get done what exploring I can.
The best thing is that now I get to go home and spend some time with my wife and son. Yeah!
