After 7 or so years as a Web Developer, I explored the idea of being a marketer. I have always had great respect for “Marketing Guys”. Even though calling them that is a huge insult (they typically are the most conscious of job titles and seemingly hold titles in high esteem) I think it is […]

Cambridge Analytica
I recently reviewed the video The Great Hack from Netflix. Upon looking to cite the link above as a source, I stumbled upon a top Google result (currently second only to the Netflix trailer page itself) called What Netflix’s ‘Great Hack’ Gets Wrong About Cambridge Analytica and subtitled: The British consulting firm didn’t steal the […]
The Cost of Pollution
“This research shows that renewables pay for themselves through health benefits alone,” lead author Emil Dimanchev, a senior research associate at the MIT Center for Energy and Environmental Research, told The Verge.
Profile Detection
My car keeps getting better. One cool feature about the Tesla is the driver profiles. My wife can set it to her profile and the mirrors and seat adjusts to her saved config settings. When I drive the car I could select my profile and have my saved settings. The whole thing is a major […]

Level 5 Autonomy is when the car can drive itself in any human drive-able condition. Why is Telsa going to win? Well for starters, they […]
Is it okay if you test on monkeys?
It is okay to test on monkeys if you are Elon Musk. Experiments to make monkey’s brains more powerful and telepathic via Neuralink. Would you rather go before a monkey? Maybe there are waivers you could sign. I think I would like to be the 11th human to go, assuming the first 10 are doing […]
