I majored in humanities, mostly because at that time the Air Force Academy didn't offer a major in Russian...so I minored in that.

All that humanities schooling at a military academy, plus all the mandatory engineering/math/science courses mean that when I see a car roll by at night on The Strip, and it's got purple lights installed on the belly to shine on the pavement so that it looks like some alien sci-fi vehicle...I can recall all the history of the visual arts (tache, sfumato, impressionism, chiaroscuro, cubism, yadda-yadda-yadda) as well as the history of science, electromagnetic radiation, optics, human vision...which allows me to richly, fully, and completely understand and appreciate how stupid that is, lol!

I'm old, but not to the point that this music is too loud:

Blind to Disruption – The CEOs Who Missed the Future via Steve Blank [Shared]

In the early 20th century, the United States was home to more than 4,000 carriage and wagon manufacturers. They were the backbone of mobility and the precursors of automobiles, used for personal transportation, goods delivery, military logistics, public transit, and more. These companies employed tens of thousands of workers and formed the heart of an ecosystem of blacksmiths, wheelwrights, saddle makers, stables, and feed suppliers.

And within two decades, they were gone. Only 1 company out of 4,000 carriage and wagon makers pivoted to automobiles.

Left- and right-handed people process high-speed visual information on opposite sides of the brain, but process high-speed auditory information on the same side of the brain.

This is really wild: Microsoft is pushing more and more #spyware features into everyday products to steal all of your data:

"#Copilot #Vision is an extension of Microsoft's divisive Recall [...] is designed to analyze everything you do on your computer [...] by capturing constant screenshots and feeding them to an optical character recognition system and a large language model for analysis – but where #Recall works locally, #CopilotVision sends the data off to #Microsoft servers." 🕵️

I would never ever trust a Windows system not to send out anything I do.

The Intel Neural Compute Stick 2 was disappointing. It lacks memory, so only old vision models can be used. Setting up the env, was a pain to say the least. It heats up quite a lot as well, and crashes.
It was interesting to learn about ML vision a bit. It is a really complex topic, lots of new jargon to digest, in a rapidly evolving industry.
The AI hat for RPI5 is probably much better nowadays (with lib support, community, and all).
