Tech in the Caribbean ……….
I no longer operate under the idea of “Build it and they will come” …..
Instead,
I will build it because I need it …….
I am building the world…
…that I want live in. Not waiting for the future…
DIY Water gauge
This a project is for a friend was concerned about how much water was in her cistern. I decided to use a rangefinder to measure the water level and then email this value. I also 3D printed a case for the Raspberry Pi.
This is currently a work in progress.

…just not distributed enough…
Daemon
In multitasking computer operating systems, a daemon (/ˈdiːmən/ or /ˈdeɪmən/)[1] is a computer program that runs as a background process, rather than being under the direct control of an interactive user.
Humans With Amplified Intelligence Could Be More Powerful Than AI
With much of our attention focused the rise of advanced artificial intelligence, few consider the potential for radically amplified human intelligence (IA). It’s an open question as to which will come first, but a technologically boosted brain could be just as powerful — and just as dangerous – as AI.

California Is On The Verge Of Water Abundance
It will not happen overnight, but California is on the verge of a hydro-revolution; the beginning of a radical transformation that will dramatically increase the amount of available water. It has already happened in other parts of the world. From where we stand today, this transformation sounds quite unlikely. There are those in California who believe we should return to a desert landscape, retire what has become the most productive agricultural region in the world and live with what little water nature provides. Fortunately, we have overcome even greater obstacles and water abundance in California is not only possible, it is inevitable. The foundation for this water revolution is already in place.
