We made a short stop in the small town of Alpine, TX on our way to Big Bend National Park. We went to a small community farmers market where we found homemade pickles (okra and sun chokes ), sweet potato quesadillas, fresh pea vines, quiches, tamales, fresh pecans, meyer lemon cream puffs, foccacia pizza, korean pancake, okara and grilled MUSUBI !!!!!
We drove to historic Fort Davis, a national historic site. Established in 1854 to protect emigrants, mail coaches, wagons and travelers. The history and stories of this frontier military post are intriguing, from the medical practices during that time period to the soldiers who served at this post. Many buildings have been restored and furnished.
Fort Davis was a very interesting place to visit, it's remote location made you appreciate and empathize with the soldiers living here.
Fort Davis is also a haven for 511 species of birds!

Hi, I am contacting about the increase in contract by 5€. I was never notified of this and never received a letter despite it being 'sent' I only seen the increase in my bill last week and contacted 3 asking to cancel my contract but was told I am out of the time frame. I will not be paying my bill as I did not agree to this increase and want my contract cancelled for free I will switch to a pre pay sim. But I was not notified nor did I agree to any rise in my contract. I have contacted the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission and have been told I am 100% in the right. I also am not paying my bill due to the increase. I look forward to your reply.

Yesterday I came to an exhausted point, and felt truthfulness, coming to face me from a deep, somewhat hidden place inside. Since in daily life, when I have energy to do my business and 'take care of me' I can easily overpower (read: not listen a.k.a. push away) that sweet little yet perhaps kinda sad voice or kid inside, who is trying to make me see this truth, again and again. (bless us for having this voice/kid!) The kind of truth that asks us to really SEE ourselves, our actions, and how we deal with ourselves. The REAL truth, of whats happening inside. Yet we need to listen. Take a moment. And get real. No chocolate or bath to make me feel better, and go on, not going into a victim role, then cry and then feel better and think that was it and so continue, and also not immediately looking for a solution, AHA!, and jump back in the saddle of life and ride on as if nothing is happening…
NO. TRULY LISTEN. What does my soul need? For sure it's not a burn out. For sure it's not choosing to live my life sad, or not-estatic. Why do we settle for less?? WE ARE NOT HERE TO SETTLE FOR LESS.
And that doesn't mean you have to now sell your house, and spend all your money on that journey around the world, (actually, that journey inside yourself) that you've always wanted to make. (or perhaps it does )
It can be with babysteps. Even better, since those are the ones that learn us to walk. ❤
Where do you keep on going and not listening to that little voice…?
I am here to talk, if you need me.
With so much Love, Rosa

(revised) It began in 1891 with the opening of Carnegie Hall, the symbol of music world success that Andrew Carnegie paid people to construct on 7th Avenue between West 57th and West 56th Streets. A year later, the Art Students League moved into the new American Fine Arts Building, an elegant French Renaissance building at 215 West 57th Street.
In 1916-17, Cass Gilbert designed the Rodin Studios at 200 W. 57th Street, a building with elaborate apartments. Developing by small increments, by the late 1920s the blocks of West 57th Street between 8th Avenue and 5th Avenue had become a major center for cultural life in the United States.
Steinway Hall was constructed in 1924-1925, a pitch perfect Neo-classical companion to the Renaissance Revival of Carnegie Hall down the street. Art galleries, piano dealers, studios, arts-minded restaurants, hotels, and apartments for writers, artists, and renowned musicians joined them. The building at 130 West 57th, designed as a cooperative for artists, was once home to writer William Dean Howells and painter Childe Hassam. American novelist Theodore Dreiser, during one of his cranky phases, lived at the Rodin Studios. Statesman and classical pianist Ignacy Jan Paderewski stayed at the Buckingham Hotel.
This section of Midtown Manhattan continues to flourish as a center for music, the arts, and publishing, with businesses and restaurants serving the major institutions. High-rise residential buildings soar over landmarks such as Carnegie Hall, the Art Students League, the Russian Tea Room, and Steinway Hall, with residents peering down on the cultured masses from their 70th+ floor apartment perches above.
The architectural history of W. 57th Street is substantial, with a range of architectural styles including Chicago School (Osborne Apartments), Austrian Secession (Joseph Urban's original Hearst building), Post-Modern (Hotel Parker Meridien's arcade entrance on W. 57th.), Neo-Gothic (Cass Gilbert's Rodin Studios) and Green High Tech Modern (Norman Foster's Hearst Tower). Any one of these arts-institutions is worthy of their own post, but this brief guide suggests the importance of taking in the whole stretch as a cultural neighborhood.
Even if you don't have tickets for a performance at Carnegie Hall, a class at the Art Students League, a 74th floor condo at Metropolitan Tower, or a table at the Russian Tea Room, there are several opportunities for enjoying life on W. 57th Street. Visit one of the contemporary galleries along the way (i.e. Marian Goodman, Marlborough, Laurence Miller), or peer into the lobby of the Osborne Apartments, one of the city's earliest luxury apartment buildings.
Drink a beer at PJ Carney's, dine on breakfast at La Parisienne Coffee House, shop for gifts and art supplies at Lee's Art Shop, enjoy a delicious and worthy hamburger at Burger Joint, or stop in Petrossian's Bakery for delicious light fare. At any rate, the street makes a good quick escape from the crush of Fifth Avenue crowds during the holidays.
View A Cultural Guide to West 57th Street in a larger map
Begin the self-guided walk at Hearst Tower, 300 W. 57th St., at the intersection with 8th Avenue. and walk east. The street is a powerhouse in the media world. The Hearst Tower, designed by Norman Foster, sits on top of the 1928 design by Joseph Urban. The building represents just one of many media headquarters along W. 57th St. Others include Newsweek, Comedy Central and The Economist. Or from the east, browse the south windows of Bergdorf Goodman at Fifth Avenue and walk west. For easy access to West 57th St. take the N, Q, R, W to the 57th St. Station. After all, that's one answer to "How do you get to Carnegie Hall?"

Dateline: Oct 29th, 1988. I'm pretty sure this is the greatest busted play in the history of football. The story goes that Harris forgot the play he called, and ended up running the wrong way. However, Harris schooled seven Penn State defenders and found the endzone. Just a typical play for the Heisman candidate.
The Mountaineers ended up routing the Nittany Lions 51-30, and Harris went on to have a Hall-of-Fame career in Morgantown.

Welcome to Columbia Global Centers | Istanbul
"Being part of this program broke down the way I thought about Istanbul, or living anywhere as a student in any global city, including New York... It's a way of thinking that allows you to see intellectual value in things that aren't in a book. The global center and the program taught me about my value as a global citizen. It's very easy to describe being a global citizen as sharing experiences that cross boundaries that cross regions that cross countries... It's quite a different thing to just share than to be able to generate new knowledge that's the result of synergy of different students, of different people coming together. That's what's really to define the global world we'll be living in." Halima Gikandi (CC '16), speaking at the World Leaders Forum at Columbia University.

By Tyler White
Three years ago, I Love This Place PDX was started by Jubilee Lopez, of Catlin Gabel School. Jubilee noticed the changes occurring in her neighborhood, the once lively center of black life, Albina. Lopez examined these changes, known as gentrification, through the people who were living it. Going off to college, Jubilee had to leave her blog to the dedicated youth that would soon follow - including, last school year, me.
When I came on, I decided to look beyond just Albina and incorporate the areas that communities of color are now occupying. In doing that, the blog has become a newfound space, one that embodies the values of equity and access and rebirth.
Rebirth, as I now see, is a way victims make the most of their oppressors' cancerous presence. The victims here are residents of gentrifying communities - people of color and those from lower socioeconomic circumstances. Their oppressors include the policy makers, developers, greedy landlords and - worst of them all - bystanders. These are people who act as if nothing is going on, who are purposefully silent, who purposefully sold their homes to greedy landlords, who aided the policy makers and invested in the developers. Victims of gentrification see all of this, and instead of silently going they build platforms, create vivid images and tell real stories. It is visible in shirts and signs and faces that say: Gentrification is Weird, Stop the Demolition of Portland Homes, Enough is Enough, Black Portlanders, Know Your City, Don't Shoot PDX. These are all people who represent efforts beyond gentrification, people who say that no matter how you may displace me, silence me, marginalize me, institutionalize me, I am still here and I matter. This is rebirth. It is a silent code. It is survival.
As chief blogger for I Love This Place PDX, I took this sense of rebirth among all of the revitalization and looked deeper. In coffee shops, I found I was not the only person who had to embody a single story, to be representatives of all experiences black. In schools and over FaceTime, I heard stories that brought to shame the perception of a utopian Portland, so progressive and green and ... white. Yet in reality, Portland displaces and targets, decorates small businesses and bodegas where crack houses use to thrive with a liberal curtain of rainbow-accented evergreen trees.
I learned more in these Tuesdays than every day of my freshman year could have taught me. A contemporary history of the current social climate of my home, learned outside the doors of the classroom. Going out, meeting and talking with people about the issues that impact them allow you to learn, understand and truly know your environment.
No longer was the issue black and white. I saw beneath the idea that communities of poverty and color are displaced by evil white men. In no way can I say there is no truth to this perspective. However, gentrification consists of language built into years-long policy; solutions younger than the gentrification itself; people who sold and were not forced out; people who were forced to leave by higher rents; targeted revitalization by city officials and neglect both purposeful and accidental. This, at heart, an issue of class distributed through the concept of race.
This is our Portland. The hopes and dreams of new groups of people mixed with the anger and adaptive behavior of the old. The old to the new. The silent among the loud. I have heard them. The city will go on with ears closed and smiles shown. So it is time to make the city realize these communities, we, exist.
Listen to those old guys talking on the bus, help that Hispanic woman and her son at the store, do as much as you can to learn about people. This is the basis of changing a tide that caused a hurricane -- talking, organizing and changing. As the city does virtually nothing to help these displaced people, they should matter to us as fellow Portlanders, as fellow humans.
In the fall, Tyler White will be a junior at Portland's De La Salle North High School. He spent his sophomore year as chief blogger for I Love This Place PDX.

James Franco's Instagram Suggests He May Have Been Drugged, & is Our Favorite to Follow
James Franco is an actor, he's an artist, he's an academic. He's a talented, interesting dude. He's also a damn Internet enigma. This is true wherever he goes on the world wide web (do we still call it that?) but never so evident as on James Franco's instagram. Franco recently posted a video of himself, half-naked and with drowsy eyes, in which he says "Got drugged last night. Somebody slipped me something. In bed." It's now hit the news cycle, and for us it's brought up a pretty wide variety of questions we have for Mr. Franco and his instagram presence.
1. Were you really drugged, James Franco?
It happens. So we're really hoping that Franco was not actually the victim of a drugged drink. After watching his video a dozen times we're pretty sure he wasn't. But still. In fact, the phrasing of that video actually brings up this next question:
2. Was this video a reference to sex?
We're assuming it was a reference to sex. If you'll think back to that Roast of James Franco that Comedy Central did, a solid 60% of the jokes his friends and co-workers made that night in some way related back to the possibility of James Franco being a raging homosexual, or at the very least someone who enjoys getting it down with dudes. Aziz Ansari addressed the issue best by brushing it off as ridiculous, but Franco's "someone slipped me something last night. In bed." does open up a certain image to the public.Really, we don't care if James Franco is gay or not. We just really want to know what he dreams about at night*; It might be the only way to really understand him as a human.*Yes I am aware of how creepy that sentence sounds. It's still not as creepy as James Franco himself.
3. Were These Batman Instagrams As Gay Porn-Y To Everyone Else As They Were To Me? (Possibly NSFW)
UM. Is that what I think it is on that helmet, Franco? Also...why?
4. What is the story behind this picture?
We hope it's literally just "I felt like it." We hope that's his entire life philosophy.
5. Why do things like this happen?
Or rather, why don't they happen every day?We may never know the inner truths of James Franco or why he does what he does. But at least it'll be a fun (and freaky) ride every step of the way.

ANDY MELVILLE last night admitted he would relish "sticking two fingers up" at the Russians - and in particular outspoken striker Dmitri Bulykin.
Before Saturday's Euro 2004 play-off first leg in Moscow, Bulykin fired a broadside at the Welsh players saying he had not heard of any of them apart from Manchester United superstar Ryan Giggs.
And the Dynamo Moscow marksman added insult to injury by claiming Russia would not have any problems against Mark Hughes' Dragons if they reproduced the form they showed in their final two qualifiers against Switzerland and Georgia.
But Melville and his Welsh team-mates made Bulykin eat his words inside the Lokomotiv Stadium as Wales fought out a 0-0 draw.
Now the Fulham centre-back is looking to finish the job at the Millennium Stadium tomorrow - and ensure Bulykin returns home knowing full well who all the Welsh players are.
"We talked about what he (Bulykin) said in the dressing room before the game in Moscow," revealed Melville, who will win his 61st cap in the play-off second leg.
"When things like that happen, they always get a mention. You can use them to your advantage. It can make you even more determined.
"All the lads saw the article and what Bulykin said about us definitely worked to our advantage," added the former Swansea, Oxford and Sunderland man.
"If we can knock the Russians out of the play-offs then we can stick two fingers up at them.
"Hopefully on Wednesday night, after the second game, the Russian players will know all about us."
Bulykin's comments were, in fact, pinned up inside the Welsh dressing room to motivate the players before their Moscow mission.
"I'm sure the Bulykin article will get another mention before the second leg," added Melville.
"We were very professional over in Moscow. We didn't get sidetracked by anything. Everybody was focused and we have to do that again for the return match."
But the Swansea-born defender added, "Bulykin is a young lad. He may not have had much experience with the media and I don't know if he was misunderstood or not."
Melville, who celebrates his 35th birthday later this month, is one of the few survivors from the shattering defeat against Romania at the old National Stadium 10 years ago.
That 2-1 reverse against Gheorghe Hagi and company cost Wales a place at the 1994 World Cup finals in the United States.
He still remembers the pain he felt after that match and is desperate to avoid further qualification heartbreak tomorrow night.
"I played in the Romania game," he sighed. "I don't want to experience that feeling again. It was very, very disappointing."
Melville won his 17th cap against the Romanians. He was 24 at the time and had not long joined Sunderland.
"I felt empty in the dressing room after we lost that game. It was a strange feeling, hard to describe in words," he recalled.
"That result changed the fortunes of Welsh football. We went downhill after that game. That's why this game against Russia is such a big one for us.
"We have the chance to take a massive stride on behalf of football in this country. Hopefully we can take it."
Asked if he thought the present side was better than Terry Yorath's class of 1993, he replied, "Defensively we might be stronger but that's a difficult question to answer."
Melville picked up a foot injury during the summer and has only made two senior outings for Fulham this season - the Cottagers' last two matches, against Liverpool and Charlton.
"We did well in Moscow but it's only half time. We've got to set our stall out in Cardiff just as we did in Russia," he went on.
"There will be butterflies before the match. They will kick in a couple of hours before the game. If you're not nervous in these games then something is wrong with you."
Georgi Yartsev's men used every trick in the book to try unsettle Wales in the first leg.
And Melville expects them to do the same at the Millennium Stadium.
"The Russian players were rolling around in that first leg but we're experienced enough not to get sucked into anything," he said.
"We have to keep our discipline. The last thing we need is to get a man sent-off and find ourselves reduced to 10 men.
"We know about teams like Russia. We know they will try and wind us up and get you into trouble.
"I think they will try it on again during the second leg. What they do is up to them. We just need to concentrate on our football."
Melville, who made his international bow against West Germany in 1990, said, "I've been in the squad since I was 18.
"I've experienced a lot of ups and downs. At the moment we're on the up and hopefully Wednesday night turns out to be a great one for Wales."

The Eco Fryer is not completely "no oil"
Date:2016-01-22 11:49:00 Click:
From the university, almost every school gate, there is a shop that sells Fried chicken, and business is very good. Crispy Fried things smell good, always is easy to let a person have appetite. But when eating guilt also is very strong, on the one hand, it is well known Fried food is not healthy, on the other hand, to eat many easy to get fat.
So these two years, there is a pot is very popular, is the Eco Fryer, this pan said don't need oil can do the Fried process, are very attractive indeed. The reporter understands interviews with experts, however, compared to common Fried, "Eco Fryer" cooked food fat content is lower. But also find a lot of used citizen, with Eco Fryer Fried food does not completely not to put oil, otherwise
do not taste sweet.
In addition, because food is heated with Eco Fryer, average temperature will be over 120 ℃, also can produce acrylamide class of suspected carcinogen, so even if is to use the Eco Fryer, when to eat the Fried food, also want to be temperate, not excessive.

In an effort to help customers understand professional photography pricing, I'll be writing some posts to explain the work involved in producing contracted photography products and services.
The pricing formula is based on three basic factors:
- The photographer's technical skills and effort needed to competently capture an image in the camera
- The photographer's creative ideas and effort applied before, during, and after the photo shoot
- The duration of time required to produce the products and services the customer has bought
The following is a list of what happens after all the images have been captured in the digital cameras at an event. It's a series of relatively short-duration tasks. But each task much longer than most people would think. Collectively, the tasks add up to a lot of time.
1. Load all the equipment in the car (cameras, light stands, umbrellas, softboxes, accessories).
2. Drive back to the office/studio.
3. Unload the equipment from the car.
4. Power-up and login to the computers.
5. Create the event's file folders on the computers.
6. Transfer the RAW images (see note below about RAW images) from the camera memory cards to the new file folders.
7. Copy the RAW images from the production computer to the backup disk drive.
8. Examine every image and delete those that fail the quality or usefulness criteria.
9. Develop the RAW images (exposure, color correction, light touch-up, white balance, crop, sharpen, vignette)
10. Develop some RAW images for black and white
11. Select the developed RAW images that I want to actually deliver to my Client (click the images)
12. Execute the step on the computer to start the conversion form RAW to JPG (high resolution for prints)
13. Execute another step, just like above, but this time set the parameters for smaller, (lower resolution for the web = faster loading)
14. Copy both sets of JPGs to the backup disk drive
15. Create the label design and customer/event-specific DVD/CD label
16. Print the CD/DVDs
17. Burn two DVDs , one for each set of images for the customer.
18. Copy both the high-resolution and low-resolution images to the flash drive.
19. Create the pages for the Image Index Portfolio.
20. Print the Image Index Portfolio pages.
21. Design and print the Cover Page and Binder Spine for the Image Index Portfolio
22. Hole-punch the Image Index Portfolio pages. Insert pages in the binder.
23. Place the CD/DVDs in binder sleeves;
24. Place the Flash drive in a binder envelope
25. Upload all images to my Zenfolio site (gives other Event guests an opportunity to view or order digital images or prints)
26. If personally delivering the CD/DVD, Flash Drive and Image Index, drive to the customer's office to deliver them.
27. Invoice the unpaid balance
28. Email the invoice. Mail the invoice
29. If mailing the package, place in large mailing envelope, create/write the mailing label
30. If mailing the package, drive to the Post Office, at the post office, weigh the package, buy the postage, place the postage on the package, drop the package in the delivery slot.
31. OPTIONAL: Transfer images from computer to iPhone, text messages images to client
All this work takes more than just a couple of hours. It doesn't matter whether I do the work or pay someone else to do it, time is involved.
In addition to the cost of time, there are job costs such as the CD/DVD media, the flash drive, print paper (for the image index), printer ink, and if mail is involved, the cost of the envelope/packaging and postage. Plus the cost of the gasoline used to drive to to and from the event venue or photo shoot location, the drive to and from the customer's office to deliver the products, or simply the gas used to drive to and from the post office to mail the envelope/package.
There's also the cost of the camera equipment, computer equipment, and computer software. That technology changes and depreciates rapidly. The cost of usage and depreciation can't be avoided and has to be factored into every job.
And finally, other business expenses include the cell phone, liability insurance, accounting and legal fees. And probably a dozen other miscellaneous expenses related to sales, marketing, and administration that I can't remember right now.
The point is that time is money. And the photographer's time is just as important in the pricing formula as his skill in creating a vast quantity of quality images.

Automation Can Be Dangerous December 6, 2018Posted by Peter Varhol in Software development, Software tools, Strategy, Uncategorized.
Tags: aircraft, automation, testing
add a comment
Boeing has a great way to prevent aerodynamic stalls in their 737 MAX aircraft. A set of sensors determines through airspeed and angle of attack that an aircraft is about to stall (that is, lose lift on its wings), and automatically pitch the nose down to recover.
Apparently malfunctioning sensors on Lion Air Flight 610 caused the aircraft nose to sharply pitch down absent any indication of a stall. Preliminary analysis indicates that the pilots were unable to overcome the nose-down attitude, and the aircraft dove into the sea. Boeing's solution to this automation fault was explicit, even if its documentation wasn't. Turn off the system.
And this is what the software developers, testers, and their bosses don't get. Everyone thinks that automation is the silver bullet. Automation is inherently superior to manual testing. Automation will speed up testing, reduce costs, and increase quality. We must have more automation engineers, and everyone not an automation engineer should just go away now.
There are many lessons here for software teams. Automation is great when consistency in operation is required. Automation will execute exactly the same steps until the cows come home. That's a great feature to have.
But many testing activities are not at all about consistency in operation. In fact, relatively few are. It would be good for smoke tests and regression tests to be consistent. Synthetic testing in production also benefits from automation and consistency.
Other types of testing? Not so much. The purpose of regression testing, smoke testing, and testing in production is to validate the integrity of the application, and to make sure nothing bad is currently happening. Those are valid goals, but they are only the start of testing.
Instead, testing is really about individual users and how they interact with an application. Every person does things on a computer just a little different, so it behooves testers to do the same. This isn't harkening back to the days of weeks or months of testing, but rather acknowledging that the purpose of testing is to ensure an application is fit for use. Human use.
And sometimes, whether through fault or misuse, automation breaks down, as in the case of the Lion Air 737. And teams need to know what to do when that happens.
Now, when you are deploying software perhaps multiple times a day, it seems like it can take forever to sit down and actually use the product. But remember the thousands more who are depending on the software and the efforts that go behind it.
In addition to knowing when and how to use automation in software testing, we also need to know when to shut it off, and use our own analytical skills to solve a problem. Instead, all too often we shut down our own analytical skills in favor of automation.
I Don't Need a Hero October 23, 2018Posted by Peter Varhol in Software development, Software platforms, Strategy.

add a comment
Apologies to Bonnie Tyler, but we don't need heroes, as we have defined them in our culture. "He's got to be strong, he's got to be fast, and he's got to be fresh from the fight." Um, no.
Atul Gawande, author of The Checklist Manifesto, makes it clear that the heroes, those in any profession that create a successful outcome primarily on the strength of their superhuman effort, don't deserve to be recognized as true heroes. In fact, we should try to avoid circumstances that appear to require a superhuman effort.
So what are heroes? We would like to believe that they exist. Myself, I am enamored with the astronauts of a bygone era, who faced significant uncertainties in pushing the envelope of technology, and accepted that their lives were perpetually in hock. But, of course, they were the same ones who thought that they were better than those who sacrificed their lives, because they survived.
Today, according to Gawande, the heroes are those who can follow checklists in order to make sure that they don't forget any step in a complex process. The checklists themselves can be simple, in that they exist to prompt professionals to remember and execute seemingly simple steps that are often forgotten in the heat of crisis.
In short, Gawande believes in commercial airline pilots, such as Chesley (Sully) Sullenberger, who with his copilot Jeffrey Skiles glided their wounded plane to a ditching in the Hudson River off Midtown Manhattan. Despite the fact that we all know Sully's name in the Miracle on the Hudson, it was a team effort by the entire flight crew. And they were always calm, and in control.
Today, software teams are made up on individuals, not close team members. Because they rarely work as a team, it's easy for one or more individuals to step up and fix a problem, without the help of the team.
There are several problems with that approach, however. First, if an extra effort by one person is successful, the team may not try as hard in the future, knowing that they will be bailed out of difficult situations. Second, the hero is not replicable; you can't count on it again and again in those situations. Third, the hero can't solve every problem; other members of the team will eventually be needed.
It feels good to be the hero, the one who by virtue of extreme effort fixes a bad situation. The world loves you. You feel like you've accomplished something significant. But you're not at all a hero if your team wasn't there for you.
Too Many Cameras June 15, 2018Posted by Peter Varhol in Software platforms, Strategy, Technology and Culture.
Tags: Amazon, Secrets
add a comment
The title above is a play off of the "Too Many Secrets" revelation in the 1992 movie Sneakers, in which Robert Redford's character, who has a secret or two himself, finds himself in possession of the ultimate decryption device, and everyone wants it.
Today we have too many cameras around us. This was brought home to me rather starkly when I received an email that said:
I've been recording you with your computer camera and caught you <censored>. Shame on you. If you don't want me to send that video to your family and employer, pay me $1000.
I pause. Did I really do <censored> in front of my computer camera? I didn't think so, but I do spend a lot of time in front of the screen. In any case, <censored> didn't quite rise to the level of blackmail concern, in my opinion, so I ignored it.
But is this scenario so completely far-fetched? This article lists all of the cameras that Amazon can conceivably put in your home today, and in the near future, that list will certainly grow. Other services, such as your PC vendor and security system provider, will add even more movie-ready devices.
In some ways, the explosion of cameras looking at our actions is good. Cameras can nudge us to drive more safely, and to identify and find thieves and other bad guys. They can help find lost or kidnapped children.
But even outside our home, they are a little creepy. You don't want to stop in the middle of the sidewalk and think, I'm being watched right now. The vast majority of people simply don't have any reason to be observed, and thinking about it can be disconcerting.
Inside, I simply don't think we want them, phone and PC included. I do believe that people realize it is happening, but in the short term, think the coolness of the Amazon products and the lack of friction in ordering from Amazon supersedes any thoughts about privacy. They would rather have computers at their beck and call than think about the implications.
We need to do better than that if we want to live in an automated world.
More on AI and the Turing Test May 20, 2018Posted by Peter Varhol in Architectures, Machine Learning, Strategy, Uncategorized.
Tags: AI, google, Machine Learning, Turing Test
add a comment
It turns out that most people who care to comment are, to use the common phrase, creeped out at the thought of not knowing whether they are talking to an AI or a human being. I get that, although I don't think I'm myself bothered by such a notion. After all, what do we know about people during a casual phone conversation? Many of them probably sound like robots to us anyway.
And this article in the New York Times notes that Google was only able to accomplish this feat by severely limiting the domain in which the AI could interact with – in this case, making dinner reservations or a hair appointment. The demonstration was still significant, but isn't a truly practical application, even within a limited domain space.
Well, that's true. The era of an AI program interacting like a human across multiple domains is far away, even with the advances we've seen over the last few years. And this is why I even doubt the viability of self-driving cars anytime soon. The problem domains encountered by cars are enormously complex, far more so than any current tests have attempted. From road surface to traffic situation to weather to individual preferences, today's self-driving cars can't deal with being in the wild.
You may retort that all of these conditions are objective and highly quantifiable, making it possible to anticipate and program for. But we come across driving situations almost daily that have new elements that must be instinctively integrated into our body of knowledge and acted upon. Computers certainly have the speed to do so, but they lack a good learning framework to identify critical data and integrate that data into their neural network to respond in real time.
Author Gary Marcus notes that what this means is that the deep learning approach to AI has failed. I laughed when I came to the solution proposed by Dr. Marcus – that we return to the backward-chaining rules-based approach of two decades ago. This was what I learned during much of my graduate studies, and was largely given up on in the 1990s as unworkable. Building layer upon layer of interacting rules was tedious and error-prone, and it required an exacting understanding of just how backward chaining worked.
Ultimately, I think that the next generation of AI will incorporate both types of approaches. The neural network to process data and come to a decision, and a rules-based system to provide the learning foundation and structure.
Don't Break Things April 20, 2018Posted by Peter Varhol in Strategy, Technology and Culture.
Tags: Move fast and break things
add a comment
The mantra in tech over the last several years has been "Move fast and break things." That culture has been manifested by headliners Uber and Facebook, as well as by countless Silicon Valley startups eager to deliver on what they know for sure is a winning strategy.
It's long since time that we pushed back on that misguided attitude. First, no, you don't have to move fast. While we retain the myth of the first mover advantage, if you look at history it is very much a myth. Tech history is rife with lessons of established companies moving into a new area, "validating" that space, and pushing out the pioneering startups (Oracle in SQL databases, Facebook against MySpace, Microsoft in just about every market until about 2005, to cite three well-known examples).
Second, you don't have to break things. This wrongheaded attitude represents only a misleading part of a larger truism, that if you are headed in the wrong strategic or product direction, it's better to know it earlier rather than later. The implication with "breaking things" is that you don't know if you are headed in the wrong direction unless you break something in the process. Um, no. You know it because you have business acumen, and are paying attention, not because you have broken anything.
It gets worse. Companies such as Uber, Airbnb, and Zenefits have redefined breaking things to include laws and regulations that are inconvenient to their business models. I simply cannot conceive of how this comes about. The arrogance and hubris of such firms must be enormous.
Certainly there are countless laws and regulations that need to be rethought and rewritten as advances change how business might be practiced. I have always said that the (only) positive thing about Uber was that it drastically reshaped the taxi industry, I think largely for the good.
But ignoring laws and regulations that you don't like is simply wrong, in any sense you might think of it. Rather, you work with government entities to educate them on what it possible to advance a particular product or service, and to openly advocate for legal change.
Oh, but that takes far too long for tech companies convinced that they have to move fast. And they simply can't be bothered anyway. See my first point – moving fast is rarely a competitive advantage in tech.
It's clear that Silicon Valley startups won't buy into what I say here. It's up to us, the customer and the public, to object to such an absurd business mantra. To date, we the public have either stayed on the sidelines, or even actively supported such criminal practices as Uber's because of the convenience afforded us by the end result. This has got to change.
Update: Case in point, https://qz.com/1257229/electric-scooter-startup-bird-wants-to-make-it-legal-to-ride-scooters-on-the-sidewalk/. It's illegal but it's not stopping the companies.
We Forget What We Don't Use April 17, 2018Posted by Peter Varhol in Software platforms, Strategy.

add a comment
Years ago, I was a pilot. SEL, as we said, single-engine land. Once during my instruction, for about an hour, we spent time going over what he called recovery from unusual attitudes. I went "under the hood", putting on a plastic device that blocked my vision while he placed the plane in various situations. Then he would lift the hood, to where I could only see the instruments.
I became quite good at this, focusing on two instruments – turn and bank, and airspeed. Based on these instruments, I was able to recover to straight and level flight within seconds.
My instructor pilot realized what I was doing, and was a lot smarter than me. The next time, it didn't work; it made things worse, actually. I panicked, and in a real life scenario, may well have crashed.
Today, I have a presentation I generically call "What Aircrews Can Teach IT" (the title changes based on the audience makeup). It is focused on Crew Resource Management, a structured way of working and communicating so that responsibilities are understood and concerns are voiced.
But there is more that aircrews can teach us. We panic when we have not seen a situation before. Aircrews do too. That's why they practice, in a simulator, with a check pilot, hundreds of hours a year. That's why we have few commercial airline accidents today. When we do, it is almost always because of crew error, because they are unfamiliar with their situation.
It's the same in IT. If we are faced with a situation we haven't encountered before, chances are we will react emotionally and incorrectly to it. The consequences may not be a fatal accident, but we can still do better.
I preach situational awareness in all aspects of life. We need to understand our surroundings, pay attention to people and events that may affect us, and in general be prepared to react based on our reading of a situation.
In many professional jobs, we've forgotten about the value of training. I don't mean going to a class; I mean practicing scenarios, again and again, until they become second nature. That's what aircrews do. And that's what soldiers do. And when we have something on the line, that is more valuable than anything else we could be doing. And eventually it will pay off.
About Computer Science and Responsibility March 31, 2018Posted by Peter Varhol in Strategy, Technology and Culture.

add a comment
Are we prepared to take on the responsibility of the consequences of our code? That is clearly a loaded question. Both individual programmers and their employers use all manner of code to gain a personal, financial, business, or wartime advantage. I once had a programmer explain to me, "They tell me to build this menu, I build the menu. They tell me to create these options, I create these options. There is no thought involved."
In one sense, yes. By the time the project reaches the coder, there is usually little in doubt. But while we are not the masterminds, we are the enablers.
I am not sure that all software programmers viewed their work abstractly, without acknowledging potential consequences. Back in the 1980s, I knew many programmers who declined to work for the burgeoning defense industry in Massachusetts of the day, convinced that their code might be responsible for war and violent death (despite the state's cultural, well, ambivalence to its defense industry to begin with).
Others are troubled by providing inaccurate information being used to make decisions, or by trying to manipulate people's emotions to feel a particular way, to buy a particular product or service. But that seems much less damaging or harmful than enabling the launch of a nuclear-tipped ballistic missile.
Or is it? I am pretty sure that most who work for Facebook successfully do abstract their code from the results. How else can you explain the company's disregard of personal reaction to their extreme intrusion into the lives of their users? I think that might have relatively little to do with their value systems, and more to do with the culture in which they work.
To be fair, this is not about Facebook, although I could not resist the dig. Rather, this is to point out that the implementers, yes, the enablers, tend to be divorced from the decisions and the consequences. To be specific: Us.
Is this a problem? After all, those who are making the decisions are better qualified to do so, and are paid to do so, usually better than the programmers. Shouldn't they be the ones taking the responsibility?
Ah, but they can use the same argument in response. They are not the ones actually creating these systems; they are not implementing the actual weapons of harm.
Here is the point. With military systems, we are well aware that we are enabling war to be fought, the killing of people and the destruction of property. We can rationalize by saying that we are creating defensive systems, but we have still made a conscious choice here.
With social systems, we seem to care much less that we are potentially causing harm than in war systems. In fact, the likes of Mark Zuckerberg still continue to insist that his creation is used only for good. That is, of course, less and less believable as time marches on.
And to be clear, I am not a pacifist. I served in the military in my youth. I believe that the course of human history has largely been defined by war. And that war is the inevitable result of human needs, for security, for sustenance, or for some other need. It is likely that humanity in general will never grow out of the need to physically dominate others (case in point, Harvey Weinstein).
But as we continue to create software systems to manipulate people, and to do things that make them do what they would not otherwise do, is this really ethically different than creating a military system? We may be able to rationalize it on some level, but in fact we also have to acknowledge that we are doing harm to people.
So if you are a programmer, can you with this understanding and in good conscience say that you are a force for good in the world?
Solving a Management Problem with Automation is Just Plain Wrong January 18, 2018Posted by Peter Varhol in Strategy, Technology and Culture.

add a comment
This article is so fascinatingly wrong on so many levels that it is worth your time to read it. On the surface, it may appear to offer some impartial logic, that we should automate because humans don't perform consistently.
"At some point, every human being becomes unreliable." Well, yes. Humans aren't machines. They have good days and bad days. They have exceptional performances and poor performances.
Machines, on the other hand, are stunningly consistent, and least under most circumstances. Certainly software bugs, power outages, and hardware breakdowns happen, and machines will fail to perform under many of those circumstances, but they are relatively rare.
But there is a problem here. Actually, several problems. The first is that machines will do exactly the same thing, every time, until the cows come home. That's what they are programmed to do, and they do it reasonably well.
Humans, on the other hand, experiment. And through experimentation and inspiration come innovation, a better way of doing things. Sometimes that better way is evolutionary, and sometimes it is revolutionary. But that's how society evolves and becomes better. The machine will always do exactly the same thing, so there will never be better and innovative solutions. We become static, and as a society old and tired.
Second, humans connect with other humans in a way machines cannot (the movie Robot and Frank notwithstanding). This article starts with a story of a restaurant whose workers showed up when they felt like it. Rather that addressing that problem directly, the owner implemented a largely automated (and hands off) assembly line of food.
What has happened here is that the restaurant owner has taken a management problem and attempted to solve it with the application of technology. And by not acknowledging his own management failings, he will almost certainly fail in his technology solution too.
Except for probably fast food restaurants, people eat out in part for the experience. We do not eat out only, and probably not even primarily, for sustenance, but rather to connect with our family and friends, and with random people we encounter.
If we cannot do that, we might as well just have glucose and nutrients pumped directly into our veins.

Energy Update: New Energy, Eclipse, New Moon, New Earth
Energy Update: New Energy, Eclipse, New Moon, New Earth
By: Diane Canfield
Blessings Beloveds,
Eclipse Energy
The Eclipse Energy started coming in a few days ago as I posted on my facebook page. Follow me here for more immediate updates. A blissful feeling of Love has been with us for a few days now. A feeling of Strong connection to the higher realms. If you have not felt this- tune in and see if you can become ONE with this feeling. It's a feeling of Gratitude, Love and Bliss.
The past few weeks we have had energy coming in of EXTREME insights and Ancestral clearing. You may find these memories and insights coming through at the craziest times as anything big or small it seems can trigger their arrival. We need to work to clear these out and heal all past karma in order to keep moving forward. So when they appear do these things to heal your own DNA and all Ancestral DNA.
- Acknowledge they are coming up for a purpose/unresolved karma
- Show gratitude they are there
- Fully express whatever emotion is associated with them
- Heal all aspects of the event
If you are around others excuse yourself and go somewhere quiet to get through this and fully deal with it. This heals your body and makes way for the LIGHT BODY to continue to build. The Light Body can not build on karma that is unresolved. This is why we need to take care of all emotions in life right away and do what we can immediately to solve any issues as they arise. In this way no more karma can build up and accumulate, having to be removed at a later time.
Energy Symptoms
Other symptoms coming in have been extreme lack of sleep and crazy dreams. You might even find yourself closing your eyes during the day for a few minutes and having many different visions coming in.
Eclipses are known for being game changers in the Ascension process. They always bring in strong energy for change. This partial solar eclipse will be no different. I advise you to go to your sacred space as the eclipse is happening and become ONE with the changes it brings. This way you are not resistant to anything that happens on that day or the following weeks coming up. Go into nature if possible and sit by trees. There are many elementals all around trees specifically to heal humans. The tree energy itself is healing, calming and nurturing. This can and should become a daily ritual in 2019.
The New Moon also comes in Jan 5/6 and this also brings in strong energy as all New moons do. New Moons are known for bringing in change so expect changes to happen in your life. It could be relationships, jobs or money. Manifest all of them to be changes for the best. Intend the best outcome in all possible scenarios.
2019 Energy: What To Expect
2019 is starting with a bang as I was told by spirit it would. We are starting with in January:
- New Energy already arriving
- New Moon Partial Solar Eclipse the 5th
- Full Moon the 21st
- Total Lunar Eclipse the 21st
- New Earth Continues to Form
This is symbolic of how 2019 will go, it will be packed full of energies and challenges. We are not going to get a year off, if you are in the Ascension process expect to be challenged in many ways this year. We will be very busy dealing with higher energy coming in and many getting new found abilities and spiritual gifts. I will go into more detail on this in another upcoming article.

With the gateway city of Miami sitting just a 90-minute flight from Grand Cayman — plus a number of other nonstop flights to North American capitals just a few hours away — managing a global business from Grand Cayman is about as easy as throwing on flip-flops and walking down to the Island's sandy shores. The fact that the Cayman Islands lack corporate, income and capital gain taxes doesn't hurt, either.
It's no surprise, then, that the economy grew by over 2.4 percent in 2017 and company registrations jumped up by 14 percent. With one of the strongest office space rental markets in the Caribbean, Cayman offers those choosing to relocate their business plenty of options to choose from, with a combined total office space close to 3.5 million square feet.
"The fact that the Cayman Islands is a safe, secure and sophisticated country makes it a jurisdiction of choice and a place for business to flourish," explains Dart Real Estate president Jackie Doak. "Beyond our world-acclaimed white-sand beaches and luxury properties, there is an innovative business community comprised of global banks, accounting and law firms, flourishing tourism and real estate development sectors, and bourgeoning IT and healthcare sectors."
The Seven Mile Beach corridor and East End are home to some of the most sought-after business locales in Grand Cayman. The Island that got its start in shipbuilding, fishing and rope making has evolved into a global financial hub with 100,000 companies and 600 registered banks.
The entrepreneurial spirit still rings strong with Silicon Valley-style blockchain companies and start-up businesses making the move to Cayman's shores. Philosophies like Dart Real Estate's Camana Bay's "Live, Work, Play" entice those looking for work-life balance, with 700,000 square feet of Class-A office space sitting right next door to a six-screen cinema (the only cinema in the Cayman Islands), restaurants and shops. Every day, nearly 2,000 people come to work and visit Camana Bay, which is conveniently located just a 10-minute drive away from Owen Roberts International Airport. Office suites here range in size from 800 to 80,000 square feet and are housed inside some of the Island's newest commercial buildings, such as four-storey 18 Forum Lane and One Nexus Way — Grand Cayman's first LEED Gold-certified office buildings.
Also on Seven Mile Beach, Regatta Office Park is the perfect choice for those looking for value for the money when it comes to business space. Class-B office space ranges from 1,200 to 10,000 square feet and counts CIBC, Cayman Water and St. Matthew's University as tenants. Sprawling across 10 acres, Regatta Office Park offers a total of 127,000 square feet of office space right next door to North Sound Golf Club, Grand Cayman's only 18-hole course, meaning you can quickly take business from the comfort of a boardroom to the greens of a golf course in a matter of minutes. For companies looking to set up shop in the capital of George Town, the Flagship Building —which sits right along the ocean near the cruise port, offshore banks, the courthouse and restaurants — offers smaller suites from 100 to 3,000 square feet.
DID YOU KNOW? Enforcing the Live, Work, Play aesthetic, the co-ed Corporate Football League at the Camana Bay Sports Complex kicked off its season in June.
