AGI: Microsoft Azure => $1B => OpenAI
Microsoft invests $1 billion in Elon Musk's OpenAI
"Microsoft is investing $1 billion in Elon Musk's OpenAI to build artificial intelligence that can tackle more complex tasks, the companies announced Monday.
Through the partnership, the companies will build new Azure AI supercomputing technologies and Microsoft will become OpenAI's exclusive cloud provider, according to the announcements. The companies said the technology they plan to build, artificial general intelligence (AGI), will be able to solve more complex problems that AI currently is capable of."

Python: Anaconda vs. Miniconda vs. Virtualenv
Anaconda vs. Miniconda vs. Virtualenv – Deep Learning Garden
"Both Anaconda and Miniconda uses Conda as the package manager. The difference among Anaconda and Miniconda is that Miniconda only comes the package management system. So when you install it, there is just the management system and not coming with a bundle of pre-installed packages like Anaconda does. Once Conda is installed, you can then install whatever package you need from scratch along with any desired version of Python."

Binary AST Proposal Could Improve Performance of Large JavaScript Apps
"Binary AST is a stage 1 proposal for the JavaScript language. Binary AST aims to drastically improve the load time of large JavaScript applications by adding a new, binary encoded abstract syntax tree (AST) to the language inspired in part by WebAssembly."

Electric V2G (Vehicle to Grid): Nissan Leaf vs Tesla
Tesla's big battery in South Australia is a 'complete waste of resources,' claims Nissan
"The Nissan executive noted that the Leaf’s V2G system has the potential to help homeowners save money, especially if the vehicle charges through a rooftop solar system during the day, and uses its stored energy to power appliances and lights at night...
While V2G technology has a lot of potential that even Tesla CEO Elon Musk recognizes, the Nissan executive’s casual dismissal of the 100MW/129MWh Hornsdale Power Reserve in South Australia seems misinformed at best. Since coming online, after all, the Powerpack farm, whose size is equal to around 2,500 40 kWh Nissan Leafs, has seen widespread acclaim for its speed and sophistication."
Tesla may revisit vehicle-to-grid (V2G) bi-directional charging solution

Hermes JavaScript engine for React Native on Android.
open source, new javascript engine for React Native from Facebook
to get (much) better runtime performance it is using "Ahead Of Time" instead of "Just In Time"
compiling to byte code representation, an approach typical for "native" mobile apps anyway.
facebook/hermes: Hermes is a small and lightweight JavaScript engine optimized for running React Native on Android. @GitHub
React Native on Twitter: "Today Facebook is open sourcing Hermes, a small and lightweight JavaScript engine optimized for running React Native on Android. We are currently publishing a new patch release for React Native which will contain Hermes as opt-in. https://t.co/YUFCqvTrAV"
Enabling Hermes · React Native
https://hermesengine.dev/
Chain React 2019: Hermes Engine Announcement - YouTube
the key advantage is speed, achieved by doing `Ahead Of Time` compiling to bytecode
instead of typical (for JavaScript) `Just In Time`. This way the size is smaller (faster load) and avoiding a step of compiling before running. Smart. This is typical for other mobile platforms, so it makes sense.
While the presenter claims that Node.js (server side) and browsers are not objectives,
this approach could be used for server side apps and it could be beneficial in particular for ‘serverless’ (cloud functions, i.e. AWS Lambda) deployments, as well as for embedded IoT.
Since V8 JS engine is open source, it could be "forked" to do similar.

Lambda School Education with Andrew Madsen - Software Engineering Daily
"Lambda School is an education system that takes elements of other software education models and combines them with newer SaaS technologies such as Slack and Zoom videoconferencing. Lambda School is an online software engineering curriculum with an income sharing agreement.
“Income sharing agreement” means that the student does not pay for their education until they get a job. With this model, the student can pay back Lambda School after their software engineering education gets them a high-paying software engineering job."

The port thus brings cross-browser support to the existing Earth For Web version, which uses the native C++ codebase and Chrome’s Native Client (NaCl) technology. Difference in multi-threading support between browsers leads to varying performance."
