Nature Finds a Way
After moving into the mountains a few years ago I found myself being more aware of nature’s diversity. I would imagine a lot of people, especially in Colorado, think they are aware and in tune with nature and I am sure many are. But going from city life to mountain life will open your eyes…

The Loquacious Introvert
This is my 1,000th post on this blog! Not counting this post, that is 893,353 words written here over 38 years. Of course, this blog hasn’t been around that long but I made an effort the last few years to consolidate all of my writing in one place and date it accordingly. That means the…

Another Wave of Random Thoughts
ATM ATMs have way too many options for many users, and definitely for most uses of the machines by volume. Sometimes, when I put my card in, why are you asking what language I want to use? The same one as last time maybe? And for someone who has the same exact transaction 95% of…

The Jericho Blog Graveyard (2014 – 2015)
After my last blog on the draft graveyard, which was the first, I am down to 117 that go back to 2014. Twelve years is a bit too long to sit on a blog typically. So like before, here are ideas I had to write about but never did. What is really interesting to me…

The Jericho Blog Graveyard (2010 – 2013)
I’ve been sitting on 145 drafts in this blog, many going back as far as 2010. Slowly going through them, I try to figure out what my point was in some cases due to anemic notes. For others the decision is if it is still worth publishing. If so, do I bring it to today’s…

My Pledge re: so-called AI and this Blog
With the prevalence of so-called artificial intelligence (AI), the amount of people turning to it to the technology to help them write, or fully write, content is growing quickly. While it may be getting more difficult to detect assisted writing and generative images, it is still fairly easy and reliable. Regardless, I want to be…

They seemingly have no logic or data science being done with the incredible patient / customer data they have. UHC will basically force you into using OptumRX for your…
