Thursday night – like a local

Despite a jam packed day of phone meetings.. I managed to squeeze in two face to face events her in vermont. 

the frist was an awesome visit to LogicSupply. . They are baed her in vermont and make a really interesting range of hardened industrial computers. . I gave a talk to the whole vermont part of the company . THe mood and culture there were really wonderful. After my talk I had about an hour to talk wit them about IoT and Machine learning. I learned a ton.. and hope they enjoyed it as well. I’m so glad we have companies like  that in vermont !

later on this evening I went to  a career development event for the Engineering college at UVM. I got to hang out with students for 2 and half hours. It was SO MUCH FUN.. it was interesting to hear what everyone was working on.. and where their interests were. It felt like about half of them were doing machine learning,. which is pretty cool !

 

 

 

ok.. super sleepy. more tomorrow

Wednesday night – Ups and Downs

Woke just after 5AM to get Gabe to a plane. He’s out at his first grad school interview in Oregon .. Driving home was able to watch a beautiful sunrise. 

super busy day with nearly 100% phone time from 8:30am – 7pm .. did manage to et out for a short run with Diane.. it was freakishly and wonderfully warm .. we ran into this guy 

I took some of my calls outside just to soak up the unusual spring like weather .. the grounds still frozen..a nd there’s still snow.. but it was time for shorts and barefeet !

 

around 1:30 it peaked at almost 71 degrees  F! (the average high for this date is 22 degrees  F!) .. but then a front came in and the temperature plummeted and the barometric pressure shot up. it was so cool to watch.. here it is courtesy of my weather underground weather station . 

it’s cooler now.. but we’re still sleeping with the window open.. spring is in the air..

 

at least for the next few hours !

Scott Turnbull Oh, dear. Didn’t John suffer a bout of inexplicable auto-test posts last year? His panoply of digital devices may have achieved sentience, again.
