    Ottawa River

    by
    April 21, 2024. This is a view of the Ottawa River from the trail. No hike today, no nothing today, yesterday's bike ride left me sore all over, so I spent the day just recovering. https://flic.kr/p/2pMDZ8h

    Maple Sugar Shack

    by
    April 20, 2024. Maple suygar shack near the creek on Longtin Road near Casselman. Went for a bike ride today, only 30 km, but the strong winds and cold weather wiped me out (and gave me a bit of a minor oblique strain). https://flic.kr/p/2pMDZP4

    by
    April 15, 2024. Something about April showers. Looking east outside the window after my bike ride as the rain goes away. I choose to think of it as the start of spring. Wrote a presentation proposal today, and newsletter stuff. That is all. https://fl...

    DGST 395: Week 13 Summary

    by
    One of the topics that stood out to me in Week 13 was the question, “Does artificial intelligence help or harm human relationships?” At first, one of my thoughts was that AI has few benefits in helping human relationships aside from a situation where an individual obtains proper advice from AI software.
