About a month ago Noah Finberg put out a challenge to build a dynamic infographic on Domo using Canva. I finally knocked it out! I wanted to 1-up Noah's request and I built an super simple NO CODE option so now EVERYONE in the Domo community can use their marketing content from Canva inside their dashboards now!

The state is now supporting businesses to integrate automation - including AI - through their Automate ND grant program. I'm going to share how to use AI to take advantage of the program in a webinar next week. Find link in the comments! Learn how: 1. Primary sector businesses are integrating AI 2. How to apply for the grant using AI 3. How tools like Chipp could qualify for the grant so you can start automating Send me a dm if you have questions!

Don't miss the in-depth from Aaron Grider: https://lnkd.in/gArpJTk9 My jaw is on the floor. What a showcase for the possibilities of #ReactNative! Some of the cool things I learned: - The 3D host/canvas is rendered near-root, using transparent UI above - Much was built with existing libraries (#ThreeJS, Expo, etc.) - Hooks and touch-event layers bring it all together - Performance can still be an issue (single thread, model loading)

A lot of pre-product, pre revenue startup clients approach Calibrate to architect, design, and develop their first web or mobile app. One common theme we see among many of these ambitious co-founders is trying to launch with a larger feature set based on what they THINK their users will find valuable. In scenarios such as this, our team always advises our clients to consider pairing back the feature set to an MVP (minimum viable product). We start this process by asking our clients “what are the critical features absolutely necessary to launch your product and start getting valuable feedback from the user base?”. Anything beyond that is speculation and unnecessary. In the startup world (or even with software SMBs are launching), it’s imperative to get to market as quickly and cost effectively as possible to start establishing a POC (proof of concept) and collecting feedback; MVPs ensure that happens. Through collecting real user feedback, clients can prioritize and execute on their roadmap (aka new features) with FACTS (aka data driven insights) v. CONJECTURE (aka speculating on what users want). Check out the blog article on our site for some tips to help narrow down the feature set of a product to an MVP: https://lnkd.in/gHTeynVb

AI is innovating a variety of industries across the US and Agriculture is no exception. 🐄 My new friend, Catie McVey, has created a new "Agtech" startup that uses patented 3D Modeling and Machine Learning algorithms to evaluate the health of cows by looking at specific characteristics such as hoof morphology and facial characteristics. Working with her to architect how to get source data from "The Stockyards" to "The Cloud" has been a lot of fun. I am constantly discovering new ways AI can make an impact in industries from legal, to healthcare and now agriculture!

I am remembering the mobile platform shift era when entire cohorts of startups kept trying to one-up each other with features until they were broadly displaced annually upon every WWDC as new OS-level native apps and capabilities were announced. News and weather apps, geo tracking tools, etc… (especially apps without network effects) My takeaway: the speed of displacement is a signal of two likely outcomes: Either a path to commoditization based on the sheer speed of innovation and displacement, or a platform-level innovation resulting in displacement. Perhaps we call this “the law of displacement speed:" When a platform shift enables apps or services to rapidly displace each other at a fast and regular cadence, the result is either commoditization (rapid displacement of each other) or a platform-level displacement. (you can expect some further exploration of this in the next edition of Implications.com - spoiler alert: I think the big platforms of every function in the enterprise, and the major platform OS's we use as consumers, are best positioned)

OpenAI's COO, Brad Lightcap, highlighted the drastic upgrades planned for future versions of GPT technology at the Conference. These enhancements promise to transform our current AI capabilities, making today's models seem almost obsolete in comparison. Imagine interacting with an AI that's more like conversing with a colleague or a trusted friend. This level of sophistication in AI could revolutionize how we handle complex tasks, far beyond the simple text prompts we're accustomed to today. But it's not just about smarter systems; it's about creating more intuitive and responsive AI solutions that can significantly augment human capabilities.

I was so excited to get to interview Charity Majors! I've been a big fan of her blog content, especially on Engineering Management, for a while. In this episode, I learned a lot about "Observability 2.0," which I'd heard of but didn't really get before. The concepts were really interesting to me and I've been looking into several projects to explore them more. The chatter of this episode also features shoutouts to Julia Evans and Aja Hammerly for their great content about engineering management! You can find links in the shownotes to all sorts of resources mentioned in the episode.
