About to start “The Everything War” by Dana Mattioli - I’m sure it will be an interesting and insightful read, pretty sure it will also be fairly depressing about how we got here

Amazing how much mess you end up making to try and improve something

How it started (screens working) and how it’s going (a mess)

In a change of pace today, no interviews, no hunting around for the next lead (although I should be) I built some Lego

(the 9x8 was mostly finished before today)

#AWSDeepRacer - "The Distance" race update.

We have new racers and a new race leader, JPMC-London-Griffc, which means I'm now further behind the leader, but at least I'm beating Duckworth and Rosscomp1 (for now)

Train your model and then take part -> go.aws/3DIuQK9
