Say what you will about Artificial Intelligence. It has helped me build out tools and features for sites that I normally wouldn’t be able to do or have the budget to hire someone to do.
Keep in mind lots of these are small projects that if I spent the time, I probably could figure out but not something that I could fund.
Just my take.
Look AI has some major issues. But if we can use it correctly and responsibly then let’s do that. The problem is that so many are not doing this!
You know what really ticks me off? The fact that I can’t give YouTube more money the way I want to give it to them.
Yes, you heard me right. I want to give YouTube more money.
LOL
Why and what for? You ask?
YouTube Premium Family.
I currently have YouTube Premium with my Google Workspace account that is my daily driver for Google stuff. But because it’s Google Workspace, I can sign up for YouTube Premium Family. How the fuck does this make any sense?!
Ugh!
I’m really missing the mountain air of Vermont!
I love that state so much! It’s a different pace and so beautiful!
Came home from Vermont to the HVAC stuck at 75 degrees Fahrenheit. Didn’t matter how much we lowered the temp. The house stayed at 75. HVAC tech is coming out to day to check it out. But of course, they’re running late.
This is great for my anxiety. All I know is that I need to pick the kiddo up at middle school at 2pm. Might have to leave the tech in the house. Who knows.
Ah, the joys of home ownership.
Update: It was a small leak. All fixed.
Back home from Vermont. It was a decent trip. Now we’re getting ready for the first day of school tomorrow.
Fun times.
All I can say is that I’m glad he’s back in school. Finally!
Fun-ish day in Stowe today.
Tomorrow we head home to Pennsylvania. A 6-hour drive that will take us 8 hours due to bathroom breaks.
It’ll be good to be back. But not excited to wake up early on Tuesday to get the kiddo to school for 8th grade.
The Falls at the end of the hike me and Mere did.
Had a fun day in Burlington today. Such a wonderful city. The lake is so nice.
Lake Champlain looking towards NY State
Finally made it to the Switchback Brewing Company! I love their ale. It’s my favorite beer!
The weather is nice here in Stowe VT. Wish we could get the kiddo moving so we can actually do something. Why are teenagers so difficult. My God. Is it just my kid? I know it’s not, but geezus, it sure feels that way!
All he does in complain put up a fight. Ugh. I hope this is just a phase.
