    Adjustable beds

    We have two SleepNumber Kings. Split, all adjustable firmness, head and feet. No climate controls. Best beds we have ever had. I like the adjustable firmness, depending on the day, may deflate or inflate accordingly due to comfort. Good luck in your search.

    Good morning!!!!

    66 outside this AM, should make it to 80. Cloudy, yesterdays rain amounted to less than a drizzle. Today I'll close out some real job stuff, more chaos, but we have a handle on it. We think. LOL. At this point we are beyond reasonable process thinking and doing, so it is do as you go. See what...

    Good morning!!!!

    70 outside right now, another degree or two for the high is expected. Raining. Weather people got it wrong. Again. We could use the rain. Put some water in the pool for the first time all year, yesterday. That's a new record. Usually we are in the spot fill mode since July. Not the "normal"...

    Good morning!!!!

    67 outside right now, heading to mid 70's. Not much accomplished yesterday. Started moving a mulch pile from a stump out of the front yard. From the tree work.

    How could Artificial Intelligence become dangerous?

    The brains behind robotics is being influenced and moved in new ways by AI and like tools. It's a single entity. You cannot separate your brain from your body.

    How could Artificial Intelligence become dangerous?

    Wait until the complete healthcare datasets get deep dived into. Already hitting the FinTech industry hard right now, and parts of IT too. Anywhere there is a human involved is ripe for automation, robotics and AI. To think otherwise is careless.

    How could Artificial Intelligence become dangerous?

    3-D printing, complete builds from the ground up. An example of pre-programmed robotics building stuff. AI is pushing robotics to another level. They work hand in hand. AI may push humans to another level too, or not. Remains to be seen...

    How could Artificial Intelligence become dangerous?

Overall an interesting experience. Just sort of shot the whole day for us though. Also dropped the SIL...
