When does it make sense to use map and traffic data for route planning? And when is Haversine (“as the crow flies” distance) sufficient? @muelld looks at questions to consider for using different approaches: hubs.ly/Q02bvgFZ0 #routeoptimization #logistics #orms

“The application of OR-Tools and LAD regression for forecasting feels new, but the use of LP for shift scheduling is timeless.” @ryanjoneil demos #ORTools, @HighsOpt, Nextroute: nextmv.io/videos/forecast-sc… #datascience #Python #logistics #lastmile #linearprogramming #orms #informs

We just shipped a new shift scheduling solver based on mixed integer programming. It’s a marketplace app, which means all behind an http api. No custom code needed. Just json in, optimal schedule out 🤓 #orms

“Even a very simple rudimentary forecast with a good optimizer can often outperform a really good forecast with a terrible optimizer.” Great #GoogleCloudNext talk from URBN and Nuuly leaders on inventory logistics and demand forecasting decision algorithms. Love to see it 🙌

Shadow testing is now available on the nextmv platform. It is a very useful addition to our other experiment types. I like that the "shadow" runs alongside on production data and not just some selected instance set. Congrats and thanks @dirk_sch and @getnextmv
We just shipped a new feature I have been working on for the last few weeks: shadow testing of optimization models in the @getnextmv cloud. 🎥: youtu.be/I8uEVnbT57I ✍️: nextmv.io/blog/release-shado… You can now attach a shadow test to a production instance. Every run input of your optimization model is then also sent to a candidate instance in the background. At a later point in time you can look at the results and compare performance on very recent production data. That helps you de-risk the deployment of a new model into production. Under the hood all written in Go. I am still very much enjoying the language for backend applications. #orms #golang

I've always wanted to see the struct size in Go even if it was optimal. It's amazing for a language ecosystem that you can go to the `gopls` code (a core language tool), add a little hack, do `go install .` and it just works. Go is a joy to work with. #golang

Hello world. How is your morning going? Just checking if gravity, logic, math are still a thing.

Speedrunning isn’t just for Mario or Zelda: hubs.ly/Q01Zt1B60 "There are a lot of solvers and decision technologies out there that feel like they stand in their own way...What we're focusing on is how to make using optimization tech frictionless." #orms #datascience

🧪 It's time to experiment! We published gonew, an experimental tool for instantiating new projects in Go from predefined templates. Learn more and try it out today 👇 goo.gle/44QRqc8

While @dirk_sch and I had a lot of fun at #gopherconEU, @cmoon6 showed what acceptance testing will look like on our platform - to be released soon. Very cool stuff!

Check your project's execution path for vulnerabilities now by installing govulncheck (go install golang.org/x/vuln/cmd/govuln…) and run govulncheck ./... Nice presentation by @JQiu25 #gopherconEU

On Thursday: @cmoon6 to demo testing for adding refrigerated trucks to a vehicle fleet, accounting for inventory caps in distribution centers, and increasing times between worker shifts. Attend live (or get the recording): hubs.ly/Q01Vhjfs0 #foodtech #foodlogistics #orms

At @gopherconeu with @larsbeck and @getnextmv. Looking forward to all the great talks! If you are interested in route optimization technology written in Go, talk to us 🤓 #gopherconEU #golang

Really glad to hear that Go as a platform continues to prioritize software security. Excellent first talk on the state of go. #gopherconEU

If you are at @gopherconeu and want to chat about decision automation, (route, schedule, ...) optimization or nerd out about Go plugins, Go/WASM interop or how to write Go code that runs fast, feel free to reach out. @dirk_sch and I appreciate all of the above - and good coffee.

Looking forward to attending @gopherconeu with @dirk_sch next week. This will also be our first time being present when @changelog 's GoTime podcast is airing/recorded. I am excited!
