Want To Try Some AI Song Writing? Songer Makes It Very Easy.

by Byron Seastrunk | Sep 10, 2024 | Animals, Engineer, General, New, Technology

It’s an unfortunate truth that music plays a very small part of my life. So small that I’ve always felt handicapped as a writer because I don’t appreciate music. That probably stems from a lack of rhythm, I have none. I can’t even clap in time to music. Having...

Solar Powered Wyze Cameras, An Engineering Evolution

by Byron Seastrunk | Jun 28, 2024 | Engineer, General, New, Technology

As with most engineering projects, it started with a need. In my case, as soon as I got high-speed Internet, I eagerly added several cameras. I chose Wyze because they are affordable, don’t require a monthly subscription, and offer excellent picture quality. Wanting...

Company Buyouts, Good For The Consumer?

You’re justifiably proud of your waffle maker. It was a lesser-known brand, yet it cost half as much as its competitors, and its brilliant texture sensor guaranteed you got flawless waffles every time. Unfortunately, as soon as you plugged it in, someone mistook...

A Conspiracy Theory Regarding Encryption Creating My Dilemma

by Byron Seastrunk | Apr 9, 2024 | General, New, Politics, Technology

It seems that the current trend on social media is overwhelmingly conspiracy theories, especially as elections draw near. I’m not particularly drawn to the political ones, but I’m gripped by a conspiracy theory regarding encryption that’s threatening to...

On The Design Of My New Business Card

by Byron Seastrunk | Mar 2, 2024 | Engineer, General, New, Technology, Writing

About 40 years ago, during a period of self-discovery, I chanced upon a handwriting analysis book. Naturally, I used the book to analyze my own handwriting. What hidden aspects of my personality might it reveal? We won’t go into the gritty details, but the picture it...

    Tariffs are a tax nations charge on imported or exported goods. The importer always pays the tax, and the money always goes straight into the pockets of the country imposing the tariff. But don’t be fooled—while the importer technically pays the tax, the cost always gets passed down to you, …

  • Does Communication Method Influence Thought?Does Communication Method Influence Thought?
    I want to confess that my previous post was an experiment in communication. No, there’s no subliminal messages or hidden phrases. It wasn’t written using a random buzzword generator. Instead, it was written almost completely by dictating it to Dragon Naturally Speaking. Hmm, I see by the expression on your …
