I don’t know if I could stomach living on another planet that doesn’t have an oxygen-rich atmosphere like our own. Hell, I’m afraid to get on an airplane, I couldn’t imagine a spaceship. Maybe a valium or three for the trip. So I asked X.com’s Grok about what Elon Musk’s vision is for colonozing Mars,…

I’m hearing people sing the praises of “AI” services like ChatCGP and Grok2. Tech companies, including my own employer, are pushing this idea that their products contain “artificial ingelligence”. It’s the new marketing buzzword. I’m a systems engineer and I help manage hundreds of servers. They’re nothing inherently intelligent about any of them. They’re just…

In politics, it’s easy to criticize the opposition but I have always lived by a simple rule: give credit whenever it’s due. Joe Biden has (so far) accepted the landslide Trump win and has been quite gracious in the early transfer-of-power. I was pleasantly surprised when I heard that Biden warned Iran that a threat…

Although I’ve been monkeying with computers since i was a tike, I didn’t make a career out of it until I was in my mid-40s when I graduated from college with a degree in computer information systems. One thing they didn’t teach me was basic troubleshooting, which is probably one of the most basic skills…

What a movie. I know, I’ve been alive long enough that I should have seen it decades ago. I think I did, but I was so drunk at the time that I didn’t remember any of it. As a rabid Sopranos fan, I decided it was time to sit down and watch all three. It…
