Instead of harping on about AI, what about solving login problems? It's getting annoying to context-switch using biometrics, 90-day re-logins, email auths, MFAs, redirects with the various auth systems, USB touches, to name, ahem, a few.

Do you know what's keeping me glued onto my phone screen? Face ID that's what. Every other app I go into, Face ID. Every transaction I do, Face ID. To authenticate apps on my Mac, yup, you've guessed it, Face ID.

Swapped out the Ring for a eufy system. Much better! When the 30-day free trial ended for Ring, it became functionally hamstrung. I had even asked Ring to remove the free trial so I can test without it, and they said no. Shady.

Almost bought boxes of LED recessed lights when I came across specs for current LED lights and found they have a little switch to change them into warm colors! Why was it set to bright and cold in the first place, beats me.

So I took Amazon Q with Claude Code 3.7 for a spin over the weekend with a real world use case and it pretty much shines. Let's create an Accounting 101 quiz app for additional practice in understanding accounting concepts. Love the outcome! Featured in ASL and voice. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLmV...

Around 7:50am there is a blue Prius going into the cul-de-sac where I live turning around and going back. Like clockwork. Is it a city employee or someone looking for an opportunity to commit crime? I might have to camp out there and flag the driver down and ask him WTF.
