Repeat after me : Climate Chaos or Climate Disruption not Climate Change.
It’s not just warmer or colder, it’s chaotic extremes & peeks that do not make sense and will impact the entire ecosystem.
I’ve never been so cold in August in 🇧🇪 in 20 years.
Been eating #Python code for breakfast, lunch and dinner for a month… I’ve learned a lot but there are so much more to learn and sometimes I lose time on things that are so ridiculous.. Like I lost 2h on a XML tag that was URL in my code when it should have been “url” (small letters) 😜
Just take it, you won’t regret it!

I’m using OpenAI Whisper (locally, without access to cloud) to transcribe 3h of French audio recording into text.
I’m actually really impressed.
It’s not fast but it’s doing the job.
I had to amplify the audio signal +3db to increase the amplitude but other than that it’s amazing.
Very precise.

We don’t need to agree on everything & we won’t but we can speak & understand each other on the same layer. It’s beautiful ❤️
