Question about using AI to find old family photos

Honestly that sounds like a privacy nightmare waiting to happen. Uploading all your family's private pictures to some random AI service just seems risky. Tbh the tech gets faces wrong all the time, so you could end up with a totally messed up family tree. Those old photos have more value when you actually sit and talk with your aunt about them, not when a computer guesses.

Just realized the show's ending hit the same notes as the book

Totally agree with @the_julia about the quiet scenes. What got me was the sound design, like how you could hear every breath and floorboard creak in those tense moments. Made the silence feel loud, you know?

Had to pick between a full tear-out or a patch on a big pet stain in a Phoenix living room

My buddy tried patching a sun-faded section and it looked like a checkerboard. He ended up having to brush some fabric dye on the new piece to dull the color a bit. Still wasn't perfect but it helped.

Let them try it on themselves first.

My take on drone surveys after they found a sinkhole we missed (yep, I was wrong).

Remember reading about thermal drones spotting ground sinking before it breaks the surface? Some report showed how they see tiny temperature changes in the soil that our eyes just miss. It's not always about someone not looking hard enough at the pictures. The drone picks up a different kind of data, like a heat map of trouble spots. So maybe it's not the person or the tech alone, but using the right tool to see what's literally hidden.
