Booked and ready to go to my first @cloudnativegeo.org conference! Also, Utah has to be my favorite state - the nature is unparalleled. Just outside St. George πŸ€™

Let's connect if you're heading out next week!

Tbh, didn't even know I could follow a feed! Thanks for the call to action and I then explored the app to find the feeds section and follow. I was manually searching the hashtag 🫣

@geospatial.money thought I saw you ask something about Cambodia on LinkedIn and you'd think this is interesting

Is there a better way to put "where your fear is, is where your task is also"?

Thanks! Is that the most common use case for lidar is DEMs? A recent job posting had to do with power lines and trees for utilities. Same thing or different flavor?

Any recs on best open lidar datasets to play with that also align with business outcomes? See it's an often listed skill

Just watched AlphaGo doc on YouTube. Strange combo of melancholy and thrill but for the human player not with AlphaGo...

Also kinda helps me feel less weary about answers being mid. I feel like there's a lot of people who say the answers are average average average. But I guess that might also depend on how much you iterate and how specific the question is and how many label examples of that area.

Only about a third the way thru but it's goooooood.

Around 1:18:00 love this. Paraphrase: "Imagine you're not talking to a magical AI. Actually, it's a statical simulation replicating a human labeler - a highly skilled and knowledgeable labeler."

Feel like 20% will get super powers of learning and 60% fall in love with convenience aligning with the paper and 20% of us who are like "yeah I think I'm a better learner but constantly second guessing which group I'm in"
