Question about Kalman filters, IMUs, and dynamics models.

I get that a Kalman filter is a predict-correct thing, where you use a model of your dynamics to predict where your system well be, and then use sensor information to correct that prediction. I'm wondering how IMUs fit into this if you have a GPS or something else for getting absolute position. It seems like I should use them instead of a dynamics model for the predict step, because the IMUs will sense disturbances that the model can't. At best the model can read motor voltages and determine what thrust they're outputting (I'm imagining a drone in this example but I'm trying to keep it general), and use that to predict a position, but if you're predicting position you might as well just take accelerometer info with a mass estimate and be done with it? Or do IMUs somehow get wired into the correct step?

Best Dallas Toastmasters or Networking Clubs?

A bit of background: I'm a 30 year old working in tech who's been looking for opportunities to improve my public speaking, network with entrepreneurs, and generally be more social. I've researched some of the Toastmasters clubs in the area but reliable information seems to be a bit sparse so I was hoping to get some recommendations from those who've attended a local meeting. I have heard that the Toastmasters format can be a bit outdated and geared to an older crowd which makes me a bit hesitant given my industry - ideally looking to network with individuals around the same age and in similar fields as I feel this would be most beneficial. But again I'm working with limited information, so curious to hear others' thoughts!

Perfect M2 weather

Needed to clear my head this morning, luckily we got some fresh snow, so it was just the perfect time to take the M2 out for a little spin class. 😮‍💨😍 The way that this things kicks the back out is awesome. Fair to say it was worth it, i was smiling ear to ear. 😅😎

Constant spot giving issues

I work out 6 days per week, PPL split. This part of my right lower trap has been a problem spot for a while. Especially after pull days, possibly due to natural uneven distributions on lat pulls / rows?? It feels like a giant knot back there. I’ve had a friend who is an esthetician try to massage it out a couple times to no success. It’s right up against my shoulder blade and won’t go away. Not sure what to do at this point.
