Some years ago my wife bought me a few (6) Raspberry Pi 3 B+ single board computers for Christmas so that I could experiment with creating and managing clusters of computers (it’s what I’d asked…
In a previous post, I wrote about finding undervalued sectors in the stock market by determining the divergence of the sector from some representation of the market itself. This post was intended to be a…
