Just over a year ago I decided that I was going to take on the final frontier of application development: mobile apps. The reasoning was simple: for some time now, more than half of the devices accessing the Internet were mobile. That meant a growing market for those services. And developing mobile apps paid well […]

Artificial Intelligence is currently a media darling. When they’re not talking AI, the rest of the news is dominated by abortion and guns. I wanted to write a learned essay about the similarities in the arguments for both. But then I thought that it might be better to let AI do the work for me.

I host all my WordPress clients at DreamHost. This offers me a number of advantages. First, there are two platforms available to me: shared hosting and my own VPS. Shared hosting works fine for low-volume websites that are mostly static pages. If I front them with caching from CloudFlare (or something similar) then no-one can

I’ve been faced with a difficult problem. Originally, I ran this simple blog site as well as my SacAutos business website. Then I decided to try and capture some WordPress business, so I created the SacWordPress website. Of course during the pandemic I was building the SacBusiness directory website.

Those people who are closest to me know that I love music. At one time I must have owned a thousand record albums and still own around 700 CDs. (Though I have ripped them all to MP3 files now and manage them via iTunes.) Many publications and people have published their greatest albums list. Why

I had an epiphany the other day in the shower. I have this website. Why aren’t I using it more? So, after a year of no updates, the website has been dramatically expanded. And that’s not all. Look for more updates with this site as well as SacAutos and SacBusiness as we close out the

Let me begin this rant with the declaration that I am neither a Democrat nor a Republican. My official party affiliation on my voter registration is “Decline to State.” When I was affiliated with a party some twenty five years ago, it was with the Libertarians. As an outsider, don’t attempt to paint me as

I’ve been an AT&T cable TV customer for about ten years. When we moved to our current community, we gladly dumped Comcast’s cable TV service that we had at the time. It’s been so long ago now that I don’t even remember the specific issues that we had. But we were pleased overall that U-verse

A boxer named Maxim Dadashev died today in Maryland. I’m not a fan of the sport but I’ve seen a lot of fights from my youth. It used to be that boxing was a big deal in America. There was a televised boxing card every Friday night. Men like Muhammad Ali were national figures. But
