• Avanceé Reads for 12 April 24 🔗 🎂

    I don’t recall the reads hitting on this day 🎂, so it’s a bit special. A bit more noise aimed at some social streams, and maybe a sense of what it will mean to evolve this forward awaits. Also published LLM/AI Hardware and Muse Continue reading →

  • LLM/AI Hardware and Muse

    Over on the Muse Discord, shared some thoughts about it what LLM/AI hardware could look like to my Muse-infused working style. Sharing that here for some future exploration. LLM/AI Hardware and Muse - Discord 29 Mar As I am close to receiving my Ai Pin (and sorta of the assumption a few here might also have the Rabbit R1 on order), def wondering how to integrate such hardware/LLM approaches with Muse.

    Looking backwards, this has been an incredibly contemplative and challenging week. I think the shape of this endeavor probably goes a little more insular than it does collaborative. There’s a space where this needs to be invited as a perspective rather than one where it needs to be pushed. Also published this week: Stymied, Or Not Continue reading →

  • Stymied, or Not

    There’s this section of my Muse board (instance) that is nothing but a series of glasses and vision related experiments. Some of which are in various forms of being started or restarted. Others are in a shape of “maybe I should get working on that a little bit more.“ This is most true of the Everysight Maverick Developer Edition glasses. Had plans on simply integrating these with the Apple Watch and then later to integrate them with a Bosch-motored ebike, but those plans have been really slow to come together. Continue reading →

    For some, contemplation on this holy day is one part happiness, and another part a consideration of what might be coming behind a corner of unforeseen circumstances. Chances are, things aren’t as good or as bad as desired, but they are going to happen. Foundations for persistence probably were clearly taught before this moment. Continue reading →

    Used to have teachers say “you can’t just write the answer. Show your work!” A lot of the discourse around computational advances today sounds very similar. Many congruent issues with addressing too - the teachers/regulators often don’t have but a single framework of thought. Imagination processes differently to get to similar answers.

    There’s a new podcast coming from LeBron James and JJ Reddick called Mind the Game. This podcast is an exposition of the thinking, one could say “high-level thinking” behind some of the the better folks to have recently played the game. There is a piece of thought which considers topics and conversations like this to amount to a kind of “nerd-ing out.” A lot of pontification from those who do the thing and who are innately aware of the crevices which pass beyond the recognition of others who might simply see the outputs or results.

    It is the Ides of March… looking to beware on one end, and mind “the wisdom of the crowd” on another. Also published: Negotiations with Audiences Continue reading →

  • Negotiations With Audiences

    Attended a four hour workshop and was reminded about the tenuous relationship that facilitators have with their audiences. There is the implicit structure of a session where the facilitator is regarded as the subject matter expert. There is the handshake of greetings and slide decks or other paraphernalia. There is the negotiation that the facilitator makes with the audience through affirmations and jokes, through summaries and bullet points. And all the wild the audience is making the same negotiation. Continue reading →

    The statement came up once again, “culture eats strategy for breakfast.” Am hearing it in a different tone and intention than the last time it had come up. Also published: If At First You Don’t Succeed Gateway Continue reading →
