5G
In light of the on going pandemic, many are in search of someone or something to blame. Unfortunately, the same engineers we rely on for global high speed internet connectivity are at the center of a conspiracy in which 5G broadcast towers are responsible for coronavirus. Some have even taken it to the streets, vandalizing…
Anti consumer Apple
Traditionally, when you purchase a product you own it and that product’s manufacturer cannot tell you what you can or cannot do with it. In today’s day and age companies and corporations are actively taking steps and are lobbying to to counter these rights. Technology companies aren’t the only ones guilty of this, John Deere…
Goodbye .org
Traditionally, the non-profit ICANN has been responsible for overseeing the internet’s domain name system. They control who gets .edu website, .gov websites and so on. They claim to not be price a regulator, so they have also looked to the U.S government for guidance of what to value domain names at. Recently, the U.S government…
Commercial Post
Making my first commercial was an interesting experience, but in the end it ended up being a lot of fun. After installing Audacity, I began my search for copyright free music to use for my intro and my outro. This step wasn’t too difficult since there was a lot of copyright free music on Youtube.…
Peanutized
Creating the peanutized version of me was a lot fun since it has been quite a while since I’ve watch Charlie Brown. In fact, that’s some I will probably end up rewatching now given the whole quarantine situation. The first option I had to choose from was if I was a male or female, and…
Meme Post
I think this meme accurately portrays that majority of our feelings and views towards our society’s current state of artificial intelligence. Every other day it seems there is a new article warning of us of the oncoming danger of artificial intelligence, when in reality the technology is no where near that stage. What’s more, most…

Geofence Warrants

Twitter + Elections = ❌
With the upcoming election this November all eyes are focused on election security, or at least they should be. Currently, all eyes are on social media companies since last election they played a huge role in a Russian misinformation campaign. Recently, a high school student was able to create a fake Twitter account and frame…
Screencast
My screencast was about Stack Overflow, a community driven Q&A platform for a wide variety of topics. It’s a website I find myself using quite often but not one I explored to its fullest extent until now. I primarily use it for getting quick answers errors I encounter at work. I have not fully explored…
Robots are not perfect
In today’s world of ever increasing technological change having the latest and greatest sometimes becomes irresistible. This statement definitely rings true in the case of the Apple engineer that died two years ago behind the wheel of a Tesla SUV on autopilot mode. Today the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) revealed that the engineer behind…
