Hello world! @EdHarris9000 and the #DataScience team at @HarperAdamsUni have been exploring tech & wireless networks in collaboration with @HartpuryAgTech & @ShropCouncil as part of the River Severn Partnership AWIR project. Watch this space as we start sharing our work.

[HADIFarm @HADigitalFarm]

The @HarperAdamsUni #DataScience team focused on 3 key use case themes: Asset Management, Rural Health and Precision Agriculture. We'll be spotlighting our 7 use cases which cover #Agriculture , #Wildlife #Conservation & #AnimalWelfare over the coming weeks. Stay tuned for more!

Meta's contributions to open source software are nothing short of amazing:

The Detectrons, Pytorch, React, GraphQL, SAM, the Llama LLMs the list goes on and on. Now they're saying if they achieve AGI it will be open sourced... What a body of work!

Time to look at depth heatmaps of every random object in the office 🙂 Always liked the Intel realsense camera @EdHarris9000 @wager_georgina

@DccmsM Can't you provide a legend of actual temperatures and make sure all the information displayed in the picture is meaningful to the reader? Not just screenshots from some kind of DSS. Surely you can share better on-point maps with your esteemed stature

The beauty of time-lapse earth observation: the Shire river has been messing around with the idea of forming a mini-island near Nchalo since the 80s, and had a meander that tempts of a future oxbow lake. I wonder how these two features have held up to cyclone Freddy...

@DccmsM There's this thing about visualisations: if this map was clipped to just the Malawi boundaries, it would look so benign

Stressed plants ‘cry’ — and some animals can probably hear them. Plants that need water or have recently had their stems cut produce up to roughly 35 sounds per hour, this study found. But well-hydrated and uncut plants are much quieter, making only about one sound per hour
