Generative AI is the bridge to the next computing paradigm of wearables, just like the Internet bridged the gap from PCs to smartphones.

More for myself than anyone else.
1. People who are broken make broken decisions because they are broken.
2. Shaming those decisions triggers resistance, not acceptance.
3. When the leopard eats their face, an "I told you so" is out of place.

We have now reached Mêlée Monday, the period before US Thanksgiving when everyone sends one last round of actionable emails, in the hope that they will keep the enemy occupied until after the holiday weekend.

Welp, huge election tomorrow. As a formerly non-political person, I see Trump has strong endorsements from:

- Vladimir Putin, who has turned Russia back into a dictatorship and killed an estimated 1 MILLION people in his invasion of Ukraine https://www.cbsnews.com/news/2-more-russian-disinformation-videos-targeting-u-s-election-circulating-online/

- violent racist groups such as the KKK, Proud Boys, and Oath Keepers, all of which grew by a lot during Trump's term as president.

I'm not voting with them, and hope you won't either.

2 more Russian disinformation videos targeting U.S. election are circulating online, sources say

The disclosure brings to four the number of fake videos produced and distributed by Russia to mislead the American electorate that have been publicly identified in recent days by the U.S. government.
