As I peruse the thought pieces already spewing forth after the latest round of Apple’s announcements, one thought is blooming in my mind. What cost (mostly) on-device AI? A while ago I read something about the energy usage of an AI query, I can’t find that article now but some searches suggest the following: To...
In reply to my Sort your sites out note Case Duckworth takes each of my points and gives them a good grilling. There are many good points in his reply so I thought it worth unpicking them a little, alongside my original glib comments, and see where I land. As mentioned before, I write to […]Thanks for reading and...
I’ve not watched a ‘live’ WWDC for a while now. As any parent of a 4 year old whirlwind will recognise I just don’t have the time. But said whirlwind and his mother are away for a couple of nights so I sat back on the sofa and watched the entire thing. It’s all very […]Thanks for reading and keeping RSS alive. Visit...
I’m not really using social media much these days but my accounts still exist. Most of them have the same photo of me pinned to my feed. Why? Because visibility matters. Because support matters. Because I want it to be clear that I both see, and stand beside people who are fighting to have their […]Thanks for...
📝 Life Notes A busy week! Final check-in with Jack’s nursery and he’s doing great. We knew that, but we also know he’s a different person when he’s not with us, and the structure they have there seems to work for him; we were told that a lot of the other kids look to him […]Thanks for reading and keeping RSS alive....
Up very early and headed out for a cycle. Stayed at Aberfoyle last night (Cobel Campsite), so it was a couple of hours out and back to Stronachlar. Lovely road (B829) with some sections newly surfaced over rolling hills. A few sharp climbs but that just means hitting 56kmh (35mph) on the down hills! Wheeeee....
I have a couple of days solo soon (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday) and whilst I’ll still be working it does give me a little scope to get some other things done. One of which will be to check the brakes on my bang about bike as they are squealing again, not long after getting new discs […]Thanks for reading and keeping RSS...
It’s almost time for the Monaco Grand Prix, the most famous, and my least favourite, Grand Prix of the year, but then, I’ve been watching F1 for a long time so maybe I’ve been spoilt. F1 is increasingly popular these days, and whilst the Apple produced F1 movie was entertaining (if nonsense), it’s safe to […]Thanks...
I got the renewal notice for my Microsoft Office subscription through a while back, £85 for the year. Enough to make me pause and think, do I really need this? Like most of you I use Office365 at work, extensively, and there is a lot of good to be found if you are embedded in […]Thanks for reading and keeping RSS...
Just a quick update on my post titled 34 Draft Posts, can you guess what that update is? The thing is, I have 4 posts scheduled already, but a couple of those weren’t part of the original list of 34 Draft Posts, so coupled with some newer ideas the number has gone up. This is […]Thanks for reading and keeping RSS...
