Excited to be talking at @SQLBits / #SQLBits2023 alongside so many other fantastic speakers! Looking forward to seeing everyone there!

my talk (MLOps and ML-Flops) takes a look at productionising ML code, and using MLOps to stop your next deployment from being an ML-Flop! Come say hi if you’re attending!

This is my new best friend Bernard!

He's a robot dog from Boston Dynamics! In some ways he is very similar to a dog (4 legs), and in other ways he's very different (battery-powered, has a LiDAR scanner).

Got to meet a dog today

Version 0.0.1 of an AR window into one of the meeting rooms at the office where I work. Made using Lens Studio in just a few hours! It’s amazing how much you can accomplish now in so little time

Recently I have been trying to understand how best to handle live #data from #iot devices. I wrote an article about my experiences and the journey we went on (and still are working on) which you can now read in #towardsdatascience

I talk about an #Azure tech stack that we’re trying out, that goes from IoT hub to Power Bi. Theres also a chat about the hardware, and why we pivoted away from using a #RaspberryPi

The latest episode of me and @moggy’s ridiculous business-ideas show, Brains on the Outside, is now out! If you have any weird and wonderful business ideas, we would love to hear them!
Today we wonder why if you can get tribute bands you don’t also get tribute businesses or art or restaurants. Then, in an effort to make remote work easier, Alex reinvents The Rehearsal

Had a great time at #durhack this weekend!

so many innovative and fun ideas - especially team Kill Bills, the winners of the challenge I helped set up (and winner of the entire event!!). It was a game about saving energy, using data from the building they where in!

So many other fun things too! An #anime game to teach you #coding! A banana that tells you the value of #bitcoin! An alarm clock that is excessively difficult to turn off! An app designed to call you out for not doing the dishes!

Absolutely incredible delivery came today in the post!

World Ending Game is one of the most beautiful books I’ve ever seen. Can’t wait to end a world, then make a new one with The Ground Itself (which is already one of my fave #ttrps)

Currently almost half way through Light of Xaryxis (a #spelljammer #dnd campaign). It’s fantastic, I’m loving the journey, though having the #WorldEndingGame now makes me strangely excited for it all to end now
