I'm genuinely SO excited about the new ocean map that will be at the heart of the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich when this hall reopens on June 7th. It's an unusual ocean-focussed map with so much detail, and it's just brilliant. 🌊🌊 Below is a video sneak peak.

Just rode Waymo through a crowed hilly part of SF. It was excellent. Missed having a driver, but the two Lyft rides we took were a guy who didn’t speak English, and a very confused young woman who told us crazy beliefs she had for 20 minutes.
Professional drivers - trucks, fork lifts, ride service, delivery service are all on the robotics/AI chopping block.
