Good morning. 🍃🍂🍃

28 April 2025

One of the odd things about being retired is the occasional guilt that comes with wasting the day instead of accomplishing what you set out to do. It happens more often than you’d expect—almost daily for me, except for blogging. That’s always how I start my mornings, right after taking care of Ben and Charlie. It takes time, you know—those little quips don’t write themselves. Well, sometimes they do, thanks to 21st-century tools like Copilot, the Microsoft AI app I use to describe my photos in Alt Text. It saves me loads of time, though sometimes it feels more like a collaboration. Now, if only I could get my yard work done the same way!

Just published my latest tech dive:
"What a Week: From Quantum Particles to Team Red"! 🚀

Been losing sleep over Veo 2's computer vision breakthroughs (finally affordable for indie devs!), Microsoft's hunt for Majorana fermions (quantum computing's holy grail?), and AMD's continued market disruption (though seriously, their marketing dept needs work 😅).
That video on AI consciousness sent me down a philosophical rabbit hole that I'm still navigating.
The line between advanced pattern recognition and "awareness" gets blurrier every day...
These seemingly different technologies are all connected pieces of the same revolution. Most exciting innovations happen at intersections!
