This Valentine’s Season, we’re reflecting on all our dreams that came to life in 2024 and want to take a moment to celebrate the people who make those dreams real—the humans of data. 💙At the heart of Atlan’s story is a wall—our dream wall. Since our earliest days, it’s been a tradition where our team comes together each year to write down our boldest ambitions. These dreams are not just about the milestones we hope to reach—they are guiding lights for how we help data teams do their lives’ best work.Putting up our first dream wall in 2019Our Dreams on…

I’ve released SwiftMail today, a lightweight open-source Swift framework designed to simplify sending and receiving emails via IMAP and SMTP. For AgentCorp, my Swift-based LLM agent framework, I needed a way to enable my AI agents to read and write emails. These agents would interact with users through email—reading new messages via IMAP and sending responses via SMTP. After exploring the Swift package landscape, I found only MailCore2 (last updated in 2020) and NIO IMAP as viable contenders. MailCore2 had build issues, and NIO IMAP, although promising, required significant additional work before it could be practically used. SwiftMail bridges this…

Perhaps Apple’s AI fiasco wasn’t so much an issue with Apple Intelligence as much as it was Apple not understanding the assignment. Look at what Google has done with AI on its Pixel phones. The point of the Camera Coach is to be helpful to Pixel users who are shooting a photo or video. The Gemini AI model used will analyze the scene and will position the user to give the photo a better chance of becoming an epic shot.Examples of useful AI on the Pixel are the Camera Coach and the Magic CueThe Camera Coach will move the user…

I’ve been on the road in Europe for the last couple of weeks, and while I was there Thoughtworks released volume 33 of our Technology Radar. Again it’s dominated by the AI wave, with lots of blips capturing our explorations of how to use LLMs and similar technology. “Agents” are the big thing these days but we’re also seeing growing movements in infrastructure orchestration, coding workflows – and the inevitable antipatterns. Many thanks to my colleagues for putting this together again.                 ❄                ❄                ❄                ❄ My trip to Europe started in Amsterdam, for a Thoughtworks event for a few of our clients there.…
