YOW Conference Sydney 2024 – Conference Review juliangamble.com/blog/2024/12/2… #YOW24

@headinthebox Which idea are you pitching?

Revamping my pitch deck. Hope the new style resonates more.

Hey @Apple, I fixed it for you (sound on)

@ATRightMovies The trailer is more faithful to the Philip K Dick plot origin than the movie is.

The bizarre TOTAL RECALL teaser trailer from 1990.

DOOM on a Toothbrush? Sure!

@ryanarey It makes A New Hope Kenobi’s mockery of Darth even more potent, because now we see Kenobi is mocking his name change: “only a master of evil, Darth”

We sleep on Kenobi. The finale has some of the all time greatest Star Wars moments. McGregor’s anguish at what Anakin has become. The way Vader smiles when when he says, “You didn’t kill Anakin Skywalker. I did.” Makes his turn in ROTJ so much more special.

We just released our work on robot soccer. I've been working on this for quite some time with my amazing colleagues at DeepMind. It's exciting how deep RL can produce such beautiful behaviors with low-cost robots. Full paper is available at arxiv.org/abs/2304.13653 Enjoy!

@StarTrekOnPPlus @paramountplus How about #StarTrekLegacy ? Let’s get this going @paramountplus

Greetings from such great heights 🖖 #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds Season 2 premieres June 15 on @ParamountPlus! twitter.com/StarTrekOnPPlu…

I was privileged to attend Simon Peyton Jone's Order of the British Empire (OBE) investiture. The medal was presented by HM Lord-Lieutenant Mrs Julie Spence OBE QPM on behalf of The King for his services to computing and his leadership of the UK computing at schools initiative.

RT @glennf …I couldn’t help thinking of Douglas Adams: “…the poor Babel fish, by effectively removing all barriers to communication between different races and cultures, has caused more and bloodier wars than anything else in the history of creation.” wired.com/story/god-did-…

LEUKOCYTE: a complete musical overview of the human immune system hope @bts_bighit don't mind :)

@BrandonBloom This is a helpful stress relief mechanism is Big Corps.

@ryanarey @tv_foil @ryanarey you mentioned this before in your review of BB S1E12 at 3.40

@tv_foil Totally never heard that before. Sometimes I'm amazed by what I don't know.

I'm just now realizing that The Bad Batch is the A-Team in space.

Lars Klint @larsklint at #YOW22 Are you truly happy? What are your goals? Be intentional. Do it. (and don't watch Netflix). juliangamble.com/blog/2022/12/1…

Alison Rosewarne & Stewart Gleadow - Fighting Software Entropyat #YOW22 Insightful look at applying principles from physics in reversing entropy in product IT systems. juliangamble.com/blog/2022/12/1…

James Lewis @boicy at #YOW22 Whenever you see hierarchies - you expect sublinear scaling (y less than x) - whether physical or informational - this is due to the shape of the network itself. juliangamble.com/blog/2022/12/1…

Simon Brown @simonbrown at #YOW22 demonstrates a system for individual teams maintaining a generated diagram of their system, and then loading that into an organisation view of all the integrated systems juliangamble.com/blog/2022/12/1…

Sara Achour at #YOW22 leaves the room with their mouths open as she describes a compiler that can take an equation describing a dynamical system and output a hardware description for *non-digital logic* but still get your answer. juliangamble.com/blog/2022/12/1…
