Managed agents (cloud-hosted agent harnesses) are powerful, but locking yourself into a frontier lab's platform now is risky - here's why and what to do instead.
Due to my age (currently 40) and the increase in activity (due to my marathon training), I want to ensure I’m giving my body everything it needs to aide in...

🔮📚💬 Lindsay Mack, Tarot for the Wild Soul: …the Tarot cannot reliably tell us when something will end or how something will turn out. It doesn’t consistently fix, heal, or tell us precisely what will happen or when it will happen. But it...
Having arrived in Britain on 1 December 1965 for TV appearances only, including performing on BBC’s Top of the Pops, ITV’s Ready Steady Go and TWW’s Discs as Gogo, US soul singer Fontella Bass returned to Britain in the first week of...
"... all publicly available IRT-generated experimental ice shapes with complete and verifiable conditions have now been compiled into one electronically-searchable database" NASA Report E-16236 1. Public Domain image from NASA Report...
"As with any scientific endeavor, the foundation of icing research ... is the data acquired during experimental testing." NASA Report E-16236 1. 4132 ice shapes for the NACA0012 airfoil. [Yes, that is how it is spelled.] The IceVal...
"No data is clean, but most is useful." attributed to Dean Abbott. Ice shape tracing points that are mis-ordered and mis-aligned with the airfoil. Introduction The IceVal database is a significant achievement that is still yielding...
"It is possible for any (or all!) ... parameters to be incorrectly output." A case with identified horn locations that are debatable. Introduction Assessments of LEWICE ice shapes compared to experiment have been published twice. The...
"This demonstrates that the automated process cannot (yet) be substituted for good engineering judgment." From the LEWICE manual. 1 A case where two methods detected similar upper surface ice horns. Introduction Reviewing 6000+ ice shape...
"The resulting analysis showed that LEWICE compared well to the available experimental data." 1 An example of a good comparison between analysis and experiment. Introduction The IceVal database 2, and its predecessors, were originally...
"Use of these relationships allows the direct determination of ice shapes adjusted for any given icing and flight condition as well as for size and sweep of the airfoil" 1 Experimental ice shapes compared to a LEWICE analysis. Summary...
