Summary #15 for 2025-04-21

Alright Alex, settle in, it’s currently 6:12:09 PM.

Tomorrow is Easter Monday, a public holiday! So, while your calendar has a couple of stand-ups listed (10:30 AM Backend, 11:00 AM Frontend), you can safely ignore those and enjoy the day off.

Speaking of enjoying the day, your Training Peaks has a Run planned for 11:05 AM tomorrow. Excellent timing! The weather forecast for tomorrow during the day is looking good - mostly sunny with very low chance of rain and pleasant temperatures, perfect for getting those miles in. Plus, it will be nice and light out then. It also looks like you’re starting your running taper - keen eye on that!

Just a quick heads-up, speaking of large things, Tara’s to-do list for Tuesday is reportedly as big as her weekend pizza order!

Here’s a quick peek at some other bits doing the rounds:

• Scientists have reportedly unveiled a colour never before seen by the human eye, called ‘olo’. Fancy!
• Some clever teenagers invented a salt-powered refrigerator that doesn’t need electricity and are building them for hospitals.
• On the tech front, there’s talk about Gemma 3 QAT Models: Bringing AI to Consumer GPUs and a dive into Python’s new t-strings.
• In slightly wilder news, apparently, there really is a black hole on the loose in Sagittarius. Don’t worry, it’s not that loose.

Finally, somber news from the Vatican: Pope Francis has died. You can see various tributes including Watch: The world mourns the death of Pope Francis and The boy from Buenos Aires who became leader of the Catholic Church.
