@noclador.bsky.social I've been reading your timeline since the beginning of the war (The twits, then here). I'm in Vienna later this month if you're around and interested in coffee or a drink. DM me if so.

AI Infrastructure Field Day 2 #AIIFD2 featured an impressive lineup. I have more takes on the information coming, but I wanted to offer my thoughts on Google Cloud. Check it out at TechStrong.ai. techstrong.ai/articles/goo...
Google Cloud Provides a Complete AI Portfolio - Techstrong.ai
Google Cloud is certainly not a one-size-fits all, with a range of services from full hosting to a la carte specialty services.

Every time I return to a neatly made bed after a long day, I’m reminded of where Melissa Townsend and I started—cleaning rooms at The Palmer House Hilton in Chicago. Hospitality workers bring so much care to moments like this, and I’ll never stop appreciating it.

A solid take by a serious source, @phillipspobrien.bsky.social, on the the current administration acting as organized crime.
Hi All, just sent out my weekend update (free as always). The only way to understand the USA and its interactions with Russia, Ukraine and Europe is to accept that the US is now a mafia state. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

So I know I’ve been posting more “politics” than tech lately.

Because I don’t believe it’s political anymore. The tech industry requires a free and lawful society- to avoid becoming (more of) a tool of oppression and corruption.

Isn't this also known as fencing? How is this legal?
Someone broke into my storage unit and stole things. I found the thief on FB Marketplace. He's been arrested and charged in connection with dozens of other robberies.

Meta won't remove the listings from Marketplace, I'm guessing since they profit from the sale of stolen property.

Burn it down. 🔥

That's pretty rude.
"Honey will then swap in its own tracking link when you interact with its deal pop-up at check-out. That’s regardless of whether Honey found you a coupon or not, and it results in Honey getting the credit for the sale, rather than the YouTuber or website whose link led you there."

What I admired most about Rickey Henderson was his humility.

He'll be missed.
