Projects worth considering
Open Source Ecology: are building a set of Open Source and reusable blueprints for a civilization that you can build yourself. From powercube to an entire tractor.
The Framework laptop: while you can live without a phone, it’s close to impossible to live without a computer nowadays. So better buy one that you will be able to use for a decade by being easily repairable and upgradable.
Gouach repairable batteries: Batteries are the challenge of the decade. So better start making repairable batteries today.
postmarketOS: An Operating System that aims for at least a 10 years life-cycle for devices.
Project Drawdown: propose a lot of applicable solutions with their potential savings.

How are organisations doing with data and AI? (Ep. 168)

A few weeks ago I was the guest of a very interesting show called "AI Today". In that episode I talked about some of the biggest trends emerging in AI and machine learning today as well as how organizations are dealing with and managing their data.

Don't fight! Cooperate. Generative Teaching Networks (Ep. 167)

Remember GANs? Generative Adversarial Networks for synthetic data generation? There is a new method called Generative Teaching Networks, that uses similar concepts - just quite the opposite :P - to train models faster, better and with less data.
Enjoy the show!

CSV sucks. Here is why. (Ep. 166)

It's time we get serious about replacing the CSV format with something that, guess what? it has been around for so long.
In this episode I explain the good parts of CSV files and the not so good ones. It's time we evolve to something better.
