This weekend I built =GPT3(), a way to run GPT-3 prompts in Google Sheets. It's incredible how tasks that are hard or impossible to do w/ regular formulas become trivial. For example: sanitize data, write thank you cards, summarize product reviews, categorize feedback...

At yesterday’s #MassDotInnovation conference, Highway Admin @JLGulliver presented several awards to employee winners for AASHTO research projects, for work in ped infrastructure, left turn safety, and reclaimed asphalt. Congrats to our winners!
Great way to wrap this semester up. This group get-together is long overdue.

Glad to have participated in this review effort. It could be your one-stop shop to learn more about what is going on for automated crack analysis in the transportation world, even with some benchmarking to boost. authors.elsevier.com/c/1dpdh…

This is the same #EmeraldTutu you mentioned, right? @crowdwater So cool!
Waves for the #EmeraldTutu project @EngineeringOSU Wave Basin. 6DOF motions of 20 out of the 44 pods tracked as well as free surface, dynamic pressure, velocities and mooring forces. A #Naturebased solution project for @NSF @NHERIDesignSafe this #FlumeFriday
Ehh, for real? Pretty big impact on the UAS research community @MikeKnodler @colefitzpatrick @alyss_ryan

I just wrote an extensive TensorFlow 2.0 + Keras overview, targeted at deep learning researchers: colab.research.google.com/dr… Hope you will find it useful! Let me know if you have any feedback.

Thanks for @nvidia #AcceleratedDataScience GPU Grant. Our proposal on pedestrian infrastructure analysis using LiDAR point cloud was selected. Let's map some sidewalks with the new toys!

Don't add sendmail() to your code until fully tested. Lesson learned after receiving 300+ emails at 3am. Luckily the results look fine so far.

Interesting. Did not expect to find a SICK LiDAR on the road side of Main St. What could it for by only scanning horizontally? – at Northampton, MA

So excited for our upcoming bikeshare system! xitter.cf/townofamherst/status/1…
The first of #AmherstMA @ValleyBike #bikeshare stations being installed on Main Street outside of Town Hall. The 100% electric pedal assist program will be launched on June 28th. Stay tuned more details coming soon!

After decades of anticipation, practical self-driving cars are here. @driveai_ will deploy a self-driving car service for public use in Texas starting in July. Details here: buff.ly/2K0lEzu

Cool concept! But maybe at least consider using a more realistic driving cabin than this GTA style gaming rig? engadget.com/2018/04/05/phan… via @engadget
