Here’s the File Clearview AI Has Been Keeping on Me, and Probably on You Too – VICE

We used the California Consumer Privacy Act to see what information the controversial facial recognition company has collected on me.

It's a little creepy how powerful computers have gotten and how powerful face recognition is but it's here to stay. Once the cat is out of the bag, it's kind of hard to put it back in. That said, we can control and limit how our democratically-elected institutions use such data, making sure law enforcement and politicians use it for only for lawful purposes. But I am sure, it won't be long before every large business has a database on everyone that walks into their store, what time they come and go, what they buy, and tie it back to our social media posts. Data and processing only gets cheaper.

March 5, 2020 Night

Good evening! Partly clear at the freezing point in Delmar, NY. Calm wind. A pretty good evening for early March. Things will start to thaw out at tomorrow around 7 am. 🌡️

This evening I pushed forward most of the code to make the new parts of the blog working. 💻 The aerial photo 📷 comparison component will be launched in the morning, check β˜‘ it out tomorrow.

I avoided going to the store for yet another day 🏬 but I’ll figure out how to make sue through Saturday. I want to eat up more at home so I can make it through the spring time money 💵 crunch with taxes and the big car insurance bill.

Tonight will be partly cloudy 🌤, with a low of 29 degrees at 4am. Seven degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical night around March 24th. Calm wind. In 2019, we had mostly clear skies in the evening, which became partly cloudy by the early hours of the morning. It got down to 9 degrees. The record low of -21 occurred back in 1948.

Tonight will have a Waxing Gibbous 🌔 Moon with 83% illuminated. At 10 PM, the moon was in the southwest (216Β°) at an altitude of 67Β° from the horizon, some 232,968 miles away from where you are looking up from the earth. 🚀 At the state speed limit of 55 mph, you’ll make it there by August 29th. Buckle up for safety! 💺 The Worm 🐛 Moon is on Monday, March 9. The darkest hour is at 12:08 am, followed by dawn at 5:57 am, and sun starting to rise at 6:25 am in the east (97Β°) and last for 2 minutes and 55 seconds. Sunrise is one minute and 40 seconds earlier than yesterday. 🌄 The golden hour ends at 7:02 am with sun in the east-southeast (104Β°). Tonight will have 12 hours and 31 minutes of darkness, a decrease of 2 minutes and 53 seconds over last night.

Tomorrow will have a chance of rain, mainly after 1pm. Mostly cloudy 🌧, with a high of 46 degrees at 1pm. Six degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical day around March 19th. East wind 3 to 7 mph. Chance of precipitation is 50%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible. A year ago, we had partly cloudy skies in the morning, remaining cloudy in the afternoon. The high last year was 22 degrees. The record high of 63 was set in 1974. 10.5 inches of snow fell back in 1887.❄

In four weeks on April 2 the sun will be setting in the west (278Β°) at 7:23 pm (Daylight Savings Time),🌄 which is one hour, 32 minutes and 37 seconds later then tonight. April is definitely not that far away nor is trout fishing 🎣. I am thinking for an April trip I’ll go to Madison and Chenango County for a few days and camp β›Ί and fish. Probably not until the week after Easter due to my busy work schedule. In 2019 on that day, we had partly cloudy skies and temperatures between 53 and 22 degrees. A pretty typical day. Typically, you have temperatures between 52 and 32 degrees. The record high of 77 degrees was set back in 2010.

Looking ahead, Palm Sunday 🌴 is a month away, Cinco de Mayo 🤠 is in 2 months, Flower Moon 🌕 is in 9 weeks and 8:30 PM Sunset ️⛱️ is in 3 months.

🇺🇸🦅Only 11 weeks remain until the start of Memorial Day Weekend!🦅🇺🇸

Bovine Coronavirus – an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

Bovine coronavirus infections are associated with three distinct clinical syndromes in cattle: calf diarrhea, winter dysentery (hemorrhagic diarrhea) in adult cattle, and respiratory infections in cattle of various ages, including the bovine respiratory disease complex (shipping fever) in feedlot cattle. Coronaviruses were first reported as a cause of diarrhea in calves in the United States in 1973, and since then they have been recognized worldwide in association with the three clinical syndromes. The economic impact of respiratory disease and calf diarrhea is considerable.
