  • Publication number: 20230338839
    Abstract: The technology described in this application relates to a system and method for using an API for a video game application where the data from the API can be used in various processes and sub-processes. For example, the technology allows a system to create a tournament for a game (e.g., a multiplayer first person shooter game) where data obtained via an API can be used for measuring player participating in the tournament. The technology described herein can also utilize a technique for continuously making API calls without the risk of the API system denying a request (e.g., due to too many frequent API call attempts, due to too many requests made from a single network address).

  • Publication number: 20230337396
    Abstract: An immersion cooling system includes an immersion tank that is configured to retain dielectric working fluid and to hold a plurality of computing devices submerged in the dielectric working fluid. The immersion cooling system also includes a condenser that is configured to cause condensation of vaporized working fluid. The immersion cooling system also includes a subcooling heat exchanger that is in fluid communication with a coolant source. The coolant source provides coolant having a coolant temperature that is lower than a boiling point of the dielectric working fluid. The subcooling heat exchanger is positioned so that heat transfer can occur between the dielectric working fluid and the subcooling heat exchanger. The immersion cooling system also includes a control system that controls how much of the coolant flows into the subcooling heat exchanger based at least in part on a temperature of the dielectric working fluid.

  • Patent number: 11786069
    Abstract: A beverage fluid dispensing head comprising a housing; and a fluid track, at least in part, arranged inside the housing. The fluid track comprises: an inlet channel arranged for receiving a beverage fluid, such as coffee, from a beverage apparatus; a collection chamber, fluidly connected to the inlet channel, for receiving the beverage fluid therefrom; and at least one outlet channel. The at least one outlet channel is fluidly connected to the collection chamber for receiving the beverage fluid from the collection chamber. A downstream part of the at least one outlet channel is formed as a tongue-shaped flow guide which is downwardly directed for, in use, guiding the received beverage fluid and submitting the received beverage fluid therefrom in the form of an integral fluid beam for dispensing.

  • Publication number: 20230297384
    Abstract: A data processing apparatus is provided. Rename circuitry performs a register rename stage of a pipeline by storing, in storage circuitry, mappings between registers. Each of the mappings is associated with an elimination field value. Operation elimination circuitry replaces an operation that indicates an action is to be performed on data from a source register and stored in a destination register, with a new mapping in the storage circuitry that references the destination register and has the elimination field value set. Operation circuitry responds to a subsequent operation that accesses the destination register when the elimination field value is set; by obtaining contents of the source register, performing the action on the contents to obtain a result, and returning the result.
