Automatable
It came to my attention that “automatable” is not a word. I’ve been using this word to describe something that does not require human intervention and thus can be automated. “Automation-ready” just doesn’t cut it. The term suggests that some automation capability has been built and just needs to be plugged into.It’s time to put…
People of America, Get Your Heads On Straight!
According to NBC News, Trump called Ukraine President Zelenskyy a dictator in a social media post: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/zelenskyy-trump-putin-war-ukraine-russia-started-rcna192765 I don’t see this as a mere rude, off the cuff comment. This is an attack on congressionally supported assistance to a foreign country which is being invaded. When will the people of America stop accepting this kind…

Old Predictions Reviewed, and New Predictions for 2024
It seems that I missed playing the predictions game last year. 2021 was somewhat hit-and miss with seven of my fourteen predictions coming true. My predictions for 2022 also carried a 50% success rate. I believe this is fairly good considering the specificity of the predictions and the level of global shock they delivered. https://wordpress.com/post/hoymanor.com/675 Prediction 2022-1:…
Congratulations are in order!

Basically every day Princess asks me what I would like for dinner. Awesome! The problem is that I never know what I want to eat until I’m so hungry that I can’t focus on what I’m doing. So Princess has no idea what to cook. Unless there is something she is craving, she has to…
Who needs a Fitbit? Not me.

The higher-priced Fitbits look nice,…
