I've been seeing a lot of MVA crashes lately. I suspected that increased marijuana use would be one of the reasons. It's been reported before.

A.I. is only as good as its training. And who will do the labeling of datasets for accurate training? The new underclass, that's who. And if you take shortcuts, you get crappy A.I.

At one time, I served in the forces of a powerful Daimyo. As a devoted samurai, I served the realm and performed many deeds of valor.

Then one day, dark clouds rolled over the land. I was given a task I could not perform. It was a misinformed task that I felt would only bring harm and sorrow. With deep regret, I had no choice but to leave the Daimyo and my fellow samurai.

I am now a ronin, masterless, but free to roam the lands, to help and enlighten others, and to relieve suffering when I can.

I wander the Pacific Northwest, in the mountains, in the valleys, along the rivers and the coast. And I see things in the world that are excellent (sugoi) and things that are not so good (yokunai).
