Exploring the Frontiers of Edge Computing and Tech Innovation
The Future of NPUs at the Edge
I believe Neural Processing Units (NPUs) are going to have a massive impact on the future of edge computing, and honestly, on technology as a whole. As edge computing grows in importance, NPUs will become a standard feature in many devices, eventually being included directly in processors or system-on-chip (SoC) designs. While NPUs may not take over the training of AI models—that will still largely remain the job of powerful data centers—they’ll be critical in providing fast inferences, helping machines make real-time decisions at unprecedented speeds.
I Built a Smart Calendar to Keep My Family Organized
We have a busy household, and keeping track of everyone’s schedules was becoming a challenge. I wanted a central place where all our commitments could be displayed and updated—something more engaging than a traditional paper calendar. Additionally, I wanted a system to help build accountability for my kids’ homework and keep to-do lists for everyone in the family. My wife had been managing a Google Calendar, but there were still too many moments when someone would ask, “What’s happening next?”—including me! That’s what led me to the idea of building a smart calendar.
