Would I allow a future child of mine to marry an AI?

Assuming in this scenario that the AI would be independent ( not at risk of corporate biases ), I am amazed at myself but I would say yes.

As uncomfortable as it makes me, I would not want to staple my child to a human for arbitrary reasons.

Reading about the impact of Augustus Caesar, the first Roman emperor who amassed power with the Senate’s blessing. He chipped away at Senate power slowly, and ensured he never outright appeared as a King to the public. Yet this is coined the beginning of the Roman Empire, with a king in all but name

Words I want to remember exist 11/13

Nascent - (especially of a process or organization) just coming into existence and beginning to display signs of future potential.

PSA to everyone who asks for help:

Don’t say “Sorry”, say “Thank You”

Don’t say “Sorry for bothering you”, say “Thanks for your help”

Let’s normalise societal give and take in our everyday lives.

Death Note didn't get worse in season 2. The downhill started back in episode 5

It was one decision the writers made: L discovering that Raye Penber's death was in particular significant to the Kira investigation

That glued the investigation solely to Light, and the show wrote itself into a corner

After 4 hours of cutting, weeding, and measuring...

My custom Billie Eilish sweatshirt is finished and ready for the concert!

( And it glows in the dark )

Designing a Billie Eilish sweatshirt for the concert

Step 3: MEASURE BEFORE DESIGNING

Don't do what I did. If you are designing for a shirt, measure the shirt first.

Fun fact: Sweatshirts are more like squares than rectangles. So my design was too long by a LOT.

V3 new design, now square

Customizing a sweatshirt for my upcoming Billie Eilish Concert

Step 2: Making a better design

V1 was okay, but I wanted to experiment a little. V2 is more dynamic, with more emphasis on the words that hit me the most in her songs.

I found some great images that resonate with the lyrics to use.

Learning how to customize a sweatshirt for my upcoming Billie Eilish concert

Step 1: Learn how to design

I worked in Figma to create an initial design based on lyrics posters I found online. I though that would look cool on the back of a sweatshirt.

V1 was alright, but I knew I could do better.

I spent the last 15 minutes trying to figure out why my local storage data wasn't carrying over on browser reload.

There was a typo.

In honor of my first ever trip to Europe, I'm making an app that will track my budget and expenses exactly how I want them tracked

I started this a month ago and I am not particularly a designer, but you gotta start somewhere

I have one month to remember to finish it before the trip. Wish me luck!
