We hit 99.99988% availability for Stripe's payments APIs in April (and at record scale). Just a hair more than one error for every million payments.

A side project I've been building lately. I built a neural net with Tensorflow and trained it on the MNIST dataset of handwritten images. Then, I brought the model into Blender and used the values to turn it into a 3D scene. This is actually the model running!

Anyone who tried to read any scientific article at least once knows that English cannot be used to clearly convey ideas. Most people, including the brightest of scientists, have a hard time writing clearly. I'm sure Nvidia CEO knows that too. What he is doing here is he is selling the snake oil that fuels the multi-trillion valuation of his company's business. Keep listening and buy more GPUs.

Still blows my mind that you can take ANY MIT COURSE you want, online, for free. Machine learning? Nuclear physics? Quantum computing? All there. Truly unreal.

I finally got to read the "From Google Gemini to OpenAI Q* (Q-Star): A Survey of Reshaping the Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) Research Landscape" (arxiv.org/abs/2312.10868) that took over my feed a few days back. What a disappointment.

I post these because car brands won’t. VW ID3 electric ‘range’ — 424km Dublin to Cork — 260km Actual range for me today, from 100%, driving under speed limit — 233km (56% of advertised range) I barely made it to Fermoy at 225km, 5% left (chargers in Cashel full, with queues)

54 years ago today, #Apollo11 launched…Eagle soaring from Earth atop the Saturn V, bound for the Moon. It seems like only yesterday that we embarked on the mission of a lifetime – a mission for all mankind, a mission I hope will continue to inspire well into our future.

Prototyped a little app that allows you to take frames from @figma and 'pull them into space'. The frames stay linked to the canvas and update on any changes
