Anyone on here going to #DTXM25 in #Manchester this year?

It isn't as big as the #TechShowLondon, but it's a lot easier for me to get to, and some friends are going too 🥳

There should be a mix of hardware, software and service companies.
I've been a few times, and it's a useful day out. #TradeShow

Another good talk I went to at #TechShowLondon was about https://www.sway.ly/
This is a service that uses "AI"/LLMs to flag (rather than block) social media posts for families.

It is most successful when parents use it as well as their kids, and there's some gamification involved so that kids are more likely to use it rather than bypass the service, and includes an amount of trust as it doesn't snitch on the family members.

It's still in beta at the moment, but is in interesting use of automated systems that flag social media harms without being overly censorious.

Last week I had a good time at #TechShowLondon at the ExCEL.

I had a really good demo of SunBird for mapping and asset control of datacenters (https://www.sunbirddcim.com/),
3D visualization makes it look much better than Netbox (https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox), but is probably very expensive.

I watched a good talk of the difference between copper and aluminium cables (I didn't know there was a choice!) from https://www.elandcables.com/, although unless your cables get regularly stolen, I think copper is still the sensible choice....
