Decoding the Peloton
From Voltages to "Cadence, Output, and Resistance" TL;DR - I’ve decoded (most of) the protocol that the Peloton bike uses to communicate with its head unit tablet and built a device,...

AI, Tools and Transformation
It’s very tempting to imagine that AI turns everyone into a tool-builder - now everyone can just ask the model to make the software they need, and apps as we know them are dead. I think that misunderstands how most people think and where software actually comes from, and more importantly, it isn’t

Object Detection at 1840 FPS with TorchScript, TensorRT and DeepStream
In this article we take performance of the SSD300 model even further, leaving Python behind and moving towards true production deployment technologies: TorchScript, TensorRT and DeepStream. We also identify and understand several limitations in Nvidia’s DeepStream framework, and then remove them by modifying how the…

How to Begin a Novel
Last year for National Novel Writing Month I trained a neural net called torch-rnn on 10,096 unique ways to begin a novel. It came up with some intriguing possibilities, my personal favorite being “I am forced to write to my neighbors about the beast.” But many of its sentences used made-up words, or had such weird…

LLMs can't do probability
I've seen a couple of recent posts where the writer mentioned asking LLMs to do something with a certain probability or a certain percentage of the time. There is a particular example that stuck in my mind which I've since lost the link to (If you're the author, please get in touch so I can link through to you): The…

If AI chatbots are the future, I hate it
About a week ago, my home Internet (AT&T Fiber) went from the ~1 Gbps I pay for down to about 100 Mbps (see how I monitor my home Internet with a Pi). It wasn't too inconvenient, and I considered waiting it out to see if the speed recovered at some point, because latency was fine. But as you can see around 7/7 on that…

Chatbots are not the future
Unfortunately for the countless hapless people I've talked to in the past few months, this was inexorable. Ever since ChatGPT exploded in popularity, my inner designer has been bursting at the seams.

I've been loving Claude Code on the web
It’s very much a “v1” product. You type a prompt to start a new thread, it launches a little container for your agent to work in, and you can keep talking to it. It produces a branch, which you can open a PR for (that’s the only way to see a diff of the changes Claude Code made, for now). Or if you want to keep…
