Super weird. I just got a cold email from someone at IBM asking me to 'star' their project in the IBM namespace. It looks like an interesting project but it is totally not something I'd want to 'star'. 😑

I'll tell you what makes this interesting: this is software so AI Agents can control physical assets directly. Think HVAC systems... But at the same time manage physical assets that don't actually have a way for directly controlling them. Like you can't run tool from an AI and have trees trimmed or gutters cleaned. But sensors can be monitored and jobs can be dispatched to have reports filled out by meatbags (humans) so more work orders can be sent out.

So one of the arms of this MCP is creating, planning, scheduling, and approving work orders for humans to go out and make changes. That is, replace physical hardware or do a task.

This basically IBM amping up their existing software (Maximo) with AI.

Anyway, it is all Apache licensed which I guess is nice? or something?

Since football season is back… little story: I was a big-time #NFL fan and followed the #Chargers as they were my local team (grew up in the Inland Empire between Los Angeles and San Diego). As a “Make-A-Wish” kid, there were some wealthy fans that would invite us to their luxury suites to watch the game.

But, as an adult, when the team left San Diego, it was a huge betrayal. I tossed my coats, shirts, jerseys, etc., into the trash. I basically enjoy a couple of things with the NFL now: the 49ers and Patriots losing. Honestly, enjoying a negative isn’t enough to maintain a fan. I’ll watch the Super Bowl if someone invites me to a party. But otherwise, I’m at best a passive follower of the sport nowadays.

After parking in a compact space and squeezing out of my vehicle, I started walking to the restaurant where I was meeting a friend. A man in the car next to me called out, “Hey, did you hit my car?” I said, “Nope. Didn’t hit your car,” thinking it was just a question he had. Then I continued.

Returning to my car after dinner, I had a passive-aggressive note stating I hit his car, and although no damage could be found, I should have been apologetic and admitted my fault.

I should have offered to show him the doors’ first detent position rested ~2” from his vehicle. I’m not a large person, so squeezing out was a routine maneuver for parking in Honolulu.
