CTO @ 📦🍽🚁

[Bryan Bedford @FAA_Bryan]

Thank you @realBobbyHealy for welcoming the FAA team to @MannaAero’s Dublin HQ. It was a pleasure talking with you and @AvTrain_aero’s @GarlandJulie1 about the future of drone delivery. Our cross-nation partnership is essential to unlocking the full potential of this emerging innovation while maintaining safety. Excited to see what tomorrow brings!

If you want to truly learn how disruptive agentic coding is going to be, take a read of this. I built a fully functional replacement for multiple AI notetakers in 18 days (part-time) while not even trying.

I've never been more determined to make Ireland the World capital of drone delivery, and related technology.

Good memo from Spotify on how we should all think about and use AI.

Great article by @unmanndairspace, but I have to respectfully disagree with Koen. @MannaAero is already operating at a commercially viable scale and growing. Implementing U-space is now the next step to further facilitating Manna and other operators in their continued growth.

More airspace sharing goodness 🚀🇺🇸

[Manna Air Delivery @MannaAero]

Our CTO Alan Hicks on our neighbourly growth ambitions and all things airspace. We are looking forward to operating soon in the UK! Stay tuned.

Very cool

Stripe 💗 intense traffic spikes. Last week, @Zevent held the largest charity stream in France—€10m raised!—and smoothly handled traffic peaking at a sustained 3,000 requests per second with 99.9999% uptime. (If you try 3,000 rps on most payments providers, they will fall over.)

Major step forward for UTM as Manna and Wing delivery drones share the same airspace https://t.co/PbbgOLtTfx

Call me biased but @MannaAero @realBobbyHealy have done more food deliveries than most (if not all) of the companies mentioned here in a commercial setup

Their cost curve is rapidly declining where it's already superior to delivery by driver

Maybe part of the answer is not over-fixating on parcel? Just sayin'

ChatGPT Mac desktop shortcut is awesome. Clever way for them to improve UX and add friction for users who might be looking around.

This is a real shame. ⁦@Artifact_News⁩ was one of the few apps that made it to my Home Screen. https://t.co/aZc50Y3anN

@realBobbyHealy @jamieheaslip @jmechner @stripepress It’s very good

[alhicks @alhicks]

Looks cool but can’t see it replacing a phone. If they lunched before chatGPT went mainstream it would have had a mega WOW factor. But now just feels like an advert for ChatGPT. Will I be eating these words…🤐
