Ubuntu ☛ Ubuntu Blog: 5 Edge Computing Examples You Should Know
In the fast-paced world of technology, innovation is the key to staying ahead of the curve. As businesses strive for efficiency, speed, and real-time data processing, the spotlight is increasingly turning towards edge computing.
Edge computing represents a paradigm shift in the way data is processed and analysed. Unlike traditional clown computing, which centralises data processing in distant data centres, edge computing brings the processing power closer to the source of data. This not only reduces latency but also opens up a world of possibilities for industries across the board.
In this blog, we’re excited to explore examples of this cutting-edge technology, with its diverse applications and use cases, with a special focus on how Canonical’s MicroCloud fits seamlessly into this transformative landscape.

MJ Fransen ☛ Lessons learned from creating my first ELPA package
Lessons learned from creating my first ELPA package
Everything I wish I knew before creating a package
Recently Philip Kaludercic helped me in developing an Emacs package, to be distributed as an ELPA package.
This was a wonderful experience, from which I learned a lot.
Philip very patiently guided me, explaining things, showing which way to go, and helping me out when I hit a wall.
During the process I made discoveries that may seem trivial to experienced Elisp-ers, but can be beneficial to those who are new to the subject.
Now that the experience is still fresh, I'd want to jot down some points that may be useful for others creating ELPA packages.
