The Ukrainians snuck into Russia via truck and delivered drone weapons a short distance to airfield targets.

This is the equivalent of drones suddenly falling out of the sky and destroying B52s parked at Air Force Global Strike Command fields scattered across America.

I predicted this type of drone use over ten years ago in a short story.

Our current President cancels a hundred climate studies. And what would the climate studies conclude other than agreeing with the prior President's friends (who make money on the entire climate industry).

Strong rumors about Apple's big WWDC event.

Music recording companies are signing deals with AI companies to get money.

Russia's most notorious black ops group also has a vicious hacking group. These guys are not playing games.

Yes, the future was last week. This afternoon will be two generation ahead of this morning. AI can do your job.

Yet factory jobs in America sit unfilled. Go to work at something that requires skilled hands.

The "robots" (machines that do useful things) at Amazon.

Computers are now pretty good at writing computer programs. Pretty good isn't enough as good humans have to work on the code the make sure it works.

Blue Origin has its 12th safe human space flight to the "edge of space."

This writer uses AI to advise on marketing. Good choice.

A new "problem" for writers: there are so many no-cost tools out there for writers, which ones do we use and when?

Some tips on having a character show the world instead of the author telling about it.

Some tips on what book publishers like to see in books sent to them.

Thoughts on form and content.

The "artist date." I guess this is a like a short vacation or something.
