The CK Daily – Happy Independence Day!
Happy Monday and Independence Day Eve!
Hope you had a great weekend and have a great Fourth of July tomorrow! We didn’t do much this weekend and stayed indoors to protect ourselves from the heat. It was definitely sweltering! I plan on watching Independence Day tomorrow as I have pretty much every year since the movie came out in 1996. My favorite presidential speech, by President Thomas J. Whitmore (aka Lone Starr) is masterfully recited in the film and I just can’t watch it enough!
I’m so thankful to be living in the United States and definitely proud to be American! We plan to grill out and hopefully watch some fireworks from a nearby park. My kids are deathly afraid of fireworks, so we try to enjoy them from a maximum distance, they like the colors, but they hate the explosions!
I hope you have a safe and wonderful Fourth of July and a great rest of your week!

Learning Center Article – Basics of GPU Servers
Servers are essential in the modern world. They do the heavy lifting that allows all of us to enjoy the many perks of a digitally connected life. Whether browsing the internet, using a favorite app, or even talking on the phone, servers are playing critical roles at every juncture.
With so much depending on servers, it’s not surprising to see that they continually experience serious innovation. Today’s servers can run laps around those used even five years ago, and there are a few key reasons for that.
