Starfleet s one of the most wasteful organizations in an imaginary world. It’s a total head-scratcher. Standard is three live backup systems for each live system? It’s like, a true engineer starts from a redundancy, LOL. I wonder how much faster their warp engines could be, if they decided to…

Look, I’ve had a truly genius idea for an incident management tool (inspired by a conversation with a fantastic work colleague), and I’m pretty sure it’s the only honest one out there. I call it “Stoopid Uumans“, or “SU” for short. You know, like “super user” in development, but in…

DBT, or Data Build Tool, has become a popular choice for data teams, but it’s not the right fit for ?any? situation. While it offers a structured approach to data transformation, organizations will benefit from sticking with a simpler, more direct method: SQL transformations. Hahahahaha. The die is cast –…

One day at Zoopla, it hit us: we were moving slowly, people were leaving, and we couldn’t clearly connect our work to the company’s goals—let alone revenue. We didn’t even know where to begin improving. It was draining. We couldn’t keep that for too long. So, we started where we…

But across the ring stands something more elusive: the messy, layered, and unpredictable nature of reality (the quantum realm). Welcome to the journey into “things are not so simple as they seem, even…

Deliberations on ownership to understand why it’s hard to own an AI model. Legally, ownership is defined by proprietary rights, patents, and data control, yet philosophically, AI exists in a liminal space between creator and user, between programmed rules and emergent behavior. If an AI model is trained on collective…
