Going mobile first with Meos One and completely reimaging the mobile experience. Having dogfood'd this for a while now its abundantly clear Meos is just how technology should feel. Your phone is so much more capable than you imagine. #BuildInPublic #pkms #Privacy #Meos #DevSky

🥳 Celebrating 5000+ followers! 🥳 Here is a glimpse into my daily life: After my sabbatical, I got a desk at the Canberra Innovation Network. I no longer have my private office, laboratory, and an entire company to wield - but I proved that I carry the magic to wherever I go. Thanks y'all 🫰💖

At 35, I finally took my first real holiday—Aitutaki left me in awe. 🥺 How does a planet this stunning hold both this beauty and the chaos we’ve unleashed on it? What keeps you hopeful when it feels like the world is working against itself? Repost if you believe we and this Earth deserve better.

Hot take: Leuchttrum1917 > Moleskine ... But I can't go past a pretty Paperblank. Hardcover, ruled lines, pocket size - obviously. What's your favourite notebook? #JournalLife #SelfCare
Two pocket sized books on either leg of a person to demonstrate their size and style differences.

Left: Leuchtturm1917 - bright yellow
Right: Paperblank - blue and silver artistic pattern

Anxiety is a storm I refuse to let win. Ironically, it’s a pen and notebook, messy streams of bad poetry, that ground me and unlock clarity. What unexpected rituals keep you centred? Repost if you value the power of reflection. #MentalHealth #Leadership #JournalingLife #SelfCare #Inspiration

In the background: blurry due to the photographer using depth of field to artist affect. The back wall, top right hand side of the photo, is a striking light blue led strip which is in beautiful contrast to the foregrounds warm colours from the candle light in the bottom left.

Being authentic at Stanford while winning the CSIRO scholarship felt surreal. It showed me that authenticity and excellence go hand in hand. What inspires you to stay true to yourself? Sharing this could inspire someone else’s journey. #Learning #Education #Future #Dream #Growth #Mindset

Klimt’s Mäda Primavesi reminded me to embrace my playful, non-binary self. How does art inspire your journey? If this resonates with you, feel free to share - it might inspire someone else's creativity. #Art #Creative #Creativity #Inspire #Life

OpenAI o3 high has scored better than humans on ARC-AGI If you are caught up on AI's failings—you're assessing it on knowledge rather than intelligence—do this at your own risk.
A graph with score on the vertical axis and cost per task on the horizontal axis with a log scale. The title is O series performance / ARC-AGI Semi private eval. Models o1-mini and o1-preview are on the bottom left with 7.8% and 13.33% with o1-preview costing just over $1 per task. o1 low, med, high, are above following a roughly linear trend (when log scale x axis) with o1 high at 32% and approximately $8.5. o3 low scores 76% at roughly $25 and o3 high 88% with over $3000 per task.

MQTT is a very lightweight pub/sub protocol. You can run MQTT clients on fun things like ESP32's (like this fun little board I got off Temu that has an OLED screen inbuilt!) The code example I posted is a chain/graph that when a msg pub to user_input, eventually makes an infinite loop of ai_echo

I wrote a < 100 sloc #python class that allows me, my devices, and AI agents communicate to each other via MQTT. It just works.™ #devsky #aisky #buildinpublic
