What I love about this work is that the people behind it don't just want better technology. They want to make AI more accessible and more humane. #EnChargeAI

“People require strengthening before the acts of life.” Jesus I always forget how sharp Grace Paley’s prose is until I sit & face an actual page of it. Part of the magic is that it dissolves into you & you have to keep coming back again & again like some unquenchable thirst.

I keep seeing this graphic along w hot takes about truck size. I get it. They are hideous easy targets. But.. What seems much more obvious in the timing is a correlation to smart phones. People are more distracted, esp when moving at slow speeds. They aren’t looking!

Great overview of what's happening in modular chip design from Don Clark. nytimes.com/2023/05/11/tec… I'd also point out that chiplet systems are super expensive to design & test, putting startups & academic labs at a huge disadvantage in the design game. Access => innovation.

years in the making, Hang's paper is now out in Nature Communications : rdcu.be/dCdyf contact charging/static electricity is a fascinating topic with perhaps more unknowns than knowns--for polymer insulators, surprisingly we show that thermodynamics can explain a lot!

Really cool third inning on the @BravesOnBally broadcast tonight. Going deep on the ‘pen with McHugh and Matzik, mixing Glav in. Definitely a win for whoever had that idea.
