I debated whether to write this because AI can be a controversial subject. I use AI every day at work. As a business analyst, I research information and provide management with findings supported by data so decisions can be based on evidence rather than gut instinct or feelings. My employer provides Microsoft Copilot, and I’ve […]

3D printing has become a popular hobby, but it’s also a powerful tool for solving everyday problems. Film photography has benefited from it in a big way. Makers are designing replacement parts for cameras that haven’t been manufactured in decades, and some are even creating entirely new cameras. Last December, I purchased a 3D-printed panoramic […]

Lately, I’ve been thinking about the difference between a fad and a trend. A fad is short-lived and quickly fades away. It’s driven by quick enthusiasm and really doesn’t contain any lasting value. On the other hand, a trend steadily develops over time and reflects shifts in culture and thinking. While a fad is temporary, […]
