Beginning my day as I do most Wednesday mornings, at the Charlotte-Shelburne-Hinesburg Rotary club!

Looked at my calendar for today and saw that I added an appointment from 9-10am this morning… but only with the text “Busy”.

Busy… for what? I have absolutely no idea! 🤦‍♂️🤪

The key questions for the CATALIST BoF at #IETF125 about #AI activities at #IETF include:

—-
• What broad topics belong in the IETF scope?
• Which working groups are already active?
• Enough expertise/people in the IETF for new work?
• What coordination activity would be useful?
• Why are existing processes not enough?
• Would a coordination/discussion group be useful?
• Would similar future meetings be useful?
• If we have another meeting, what should the scope be?

Now watching my @internetsociety colleague Amreesh Phokeer presenting at the #GAIA Research Group on one of my favorite topics...

... the dependence of #InternetResilience on energy / power / electrical resilience.

No power... no Internet!

For a #curling addict🥌, the “multiview” in Peacock’s app is a massive bit of awesomeness!

Just finished reading “Automatic Noodle”, a fun novella from @annaleen It was a thoroughly enjoyable read that left me wanting more stories of this group of robots. It was also an ultimately hopeful and kind book… which was a good mental break from all that is happening in our world right now. Well done!

Got an email that it was 22 years ago that I started a LiveJournal. 😃 For a number of years in the 2000s, “LJ” was the main place I shared my thoughts and general posts. I did set it up as “blog . danyork . com”… and I remember many conversations there. After it was sold to a Russian media company in 2007, I started to phase out my usage. The last time I really used it was 2008.

Now… it is a trip into the past:
