If @Apple had invented the battery, Steve Jobs would have called it something cool like “the electron drive”

You can create tile-able textures from Stable Diffusion.
Here’s how you can so this using few lines of code in Keras:

This electric violin made by Kevin Basle (ksblutherie.com/) using generative design is incredibly beautiful. I don't need an electric violin ... but I want this.

data viz can be such a subtle art. first draft of my graphic showing subway rider traffic at boston stations versus final draft

ALT A subway-map-style graphic showing subway rider traffic at Boston stations, where each station node is sized according to fares collected. The design is cluttered and there is no focus because of poor text hierarchy and color choices.

ALT A subway-map-style graphic showing subway rider traffic at Boston stations, where each station node is sized according to fares collected. The design is improved because the text labels use size and color/opacity to create visual hierarchy. An annotation puts focus on the closed North Station, which usually services at least 8,600 riders on an average weekday.

If a corporation can be defined as a person, why not redefine vaginas as AK47s. That way they’d be free of governmental restrictions by those who care about ‘the sanctity of life’.

Over one *Billion* building footprints are now available in RapiD thanks to the folks over at Microsoft.
AI building coverage is truly global now with Microsoft's latest release. Kudos to the team for releasing all this data freely!

This data, and all their previous releases, are all accessible for mapping on OpenStreetMap using mapwith.ai/rapid

New York City is like Linux:
- Spend the first year re-learning how to perform basic tasks
- Spend the rest of your lifetime claiming how much better it is
- Bad drivers

The Humber Refinery in NE England.
This place looks and smells like a ghost of fossil fuel history. It's where they turn crude oil into petrol, jet fuel & many other petrochemical products.
It won't seem the obvious place to start a thread abt batteries.
But bear with me

The team debuted a new RapiD today at #SOTMUS!
mapwith.ai/rapid-sotm-2022
Completely rewritten using webGL, it has a drastically increased framerate and should feel much snappier.
Browse to your favorite place and ZOOM OUT!
