Motivation dips don't always look dramatic. Sometimes they're subtle shifts that build over time. You might notice: Procrastinating more than usual, even on simple tasks Feeling disconnected from your work's purpose or impact Going through the motions without much enthusiasm Struggling to concentrate or bring energy to conversations Finding it harder to celebrate achievements Feeling more reactive than proactive in your role

The paper, " Power Stabilization for AI Training Datacenters," argues that oscillating energy demand between the power-intensive GPU compute phase and the less-taxing communication phase, where parallelized GPU calculations get synchronized, represents a barrier to the development of AI models. The authors note that the difference in power consumption between the compute and communication phases is extreme, the former approaching the thermal limits of the GPU and the latter being close to idle time energy usage.

Google has announced that users of the US and UK versions of the 3rd gen Nest Learning Thermostat and the Nest Thermostat E can now schedule temperature adjustments using the Google Home app, allowing for easier scheduling without needing the dedicated Nest app.

Google plans to pause non-essential AI workloads to protect power grids, maintaining operations during peak energy demand by shifting tasks to available power sources.

I wanted to find out how much power was going into the room because it supports four servers, seven 3D printers, and a laser cutter.

When they're actively charging, the app provides a detailed breakdown of where the energy is going, including battery, overall system consumption, HVAC usage, and any connected accessories.
