We do not start today with great news. The NY Times reports on the sudden death of Joseph Traub, a professor I once had in college. He was basically a legend in the academic world, and it is a shame to see him go. In other news, Google Cloud Platform announced the general availability of Google Container Engine.
As always, enjoy today’s items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
