Hello UAI Members,

I am working with a utility team out of Texas who are beginning their journey into Electric Vehicle Adoption. One question they wanted to pose to the community was if anyone had advice for aquiring Texas DMV Data. Does anyone (Texas or Non-Texas) have any advice for aquiring DMV data from the state?

I look forward to your feedback!

Hi Kevin, in Texas obtaining EV registration data is very easy.  You don’t have to go directly through TX DMV, as all data is gathered by Dallas Clean Cities Coalition and its publicly available and free. To download EV registration data, you can visit: http://www.dfwcleancities.org     Scroll down and click the “Electric Vehicles in North Texas” square link. Scroll down and click “Downloadable Registration EV Data”.

Hello UAI Members,

Happy start of August! I hope everyone is enjoying the final month of summer and dodging the extreme heat. During today’s #WisdomWednesday thread, I wanted to share a quote around #persistence and the important lessons we can all learn through sticking with something. 

This quote comes from Condoleezza Rice. I hope you enjoy and take something from her message!

“I’m very glad my mother didn’t let me quit piano lessons at age 10. She said I wasn’t old enough or good enough to make that decision, and she was right. I remember at the time I was shocked. I did not like that my mother said those things to me. But when I got a chance to play with Yo-Yo Ma or more recently with Aretha Franklin, I thought, I’m really glad she said what she did.”

Hello UAI Members,

I hope all is well and that everyone is enjoying the end of July! I know several folks are out of office on a much deserved summer vacation but for those of you still in office I wanted to share a short poem for this week’s #WisdomWednesday. The poem below comes from Catherine Pulsifer who has become a recent favorite for me. If you have a wisdom themed poem I’d love to hear from you below as well! 

 

Catherine Pulsifer, © 2012

Easy is as easy does,
Who hasn’t heard that phrase?
But what really does that mean,
If you don’t do, easy never finds the way?

There are so many different ways,
That messages are tangled in.
Find a quote or poem you like,
Then make sense of what is says.

Sometimes you may not understand,
But then there will be times you do.
And those times are when we truly benefit,
And bring the message into view.

Wisdom finds us in many ways,
It’s up to us to allow it to help.
Many people benefit from these thoughts,
And it’s a way to allow yourself to self-help.

Hello UAI Members,

It’s hump day which means we wanted to start another fun #WisdomWednesday thread! Often times with a long weekend coming up, I find myself getting a little more stressed than usual trying to accomplish and get everything done but have found the following quote useful in keeping me relaxed and grounded. There’s no reason why we can’t be relaxed and still accomplish everything on our lists, in fact staying relaxed will only benefit us in the long-run!

“Let go the idea that gentle, relaxed people can’t be superachievers”

Hello UAI Members,

I recently started reading James Clear’s “Atomic Habits” and am overwhelmed not only with the great content but also the amazing quotes! Clear’s message is conveyed throghout the book in a clear/concise way that always has me anxious to start a new chapter. For this week’s #WisdomWednesday I wanted to share one of Clear’s quotes that really stuck out to me. If you’ve read the book, was there a quote that stuck out to you? Let us know!

There are a few good options!

First, (if you’re a Microsoft customer), you could create a power app with necessary security to call the openAI API

Second, here’s an experiment done with several LLMs that can be run locally and how they perform. These can be installed like any python library. They may not perform quite as well as the openAI options, but they’re quite good and don’t require an API to run – so no need to even access the internet at all to work!
