Found out that I can shoot #Comet C/2023 A3 (#Tsuchinshan_ATLAS) from my own driveway with plenty of light pollution if you know where to point 😁. Single shot with Canon 7D Mk II EF70-200mm at 200mm F/2.8 1s ISO 12800. Enhanced with Lightroom.

Last month's Australian Robotics Showcase was truly impressive. Attended by @edhusicMP and Doug Hilton. So I would like to thank the hosts @navindak @CSIRORobotics , Simonette Cox @CSIRO, @Nicci_Rossouw @RoboAus for putting on such a great show.

Great work @CSIRORobotics! Looking forward to another awesome year where we won't be afraid to fail. A key part of innovation is not being afraid to fail 😊 @CSIRO @Data61news @Jon_Whittle_ @tirthabandy @peymanm @gd_howard
Merry Christmas from the team at CSIRO’s Data61 🦾🎅 Some of us have celebrated success in 2023. For others, there have been failures. But failure is an essential part of discovery. May your 2024 be full of the true success that only failures can enable! #Xmas #robotics

Robotics isn't easy even in the era of foundation models - you have to truly love it and be very committed, but it is possible. Having said that, it feels like for the first time in my career I see a path to making robotics work. 🦾
.@ilyasut on why OpenAI gave up on robotics: "Progress comes from the combination of compute and data. There was no path to data from robotics. I'd say that now it is possible to create a path forward, but one needs to really commit. You could imagine a gradual path of
