Better practice to make a duckface with it, just in case.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

I think it's brilliant.
In the old days minor celebrities used to have to tell us when they were cooking turkey twizzlers or going to the toilet, now it will be done for them.
That will leave them several spare minutes per day in which they could be doing even more of whatever vital work it is that celebrities do.
That increase in celebrity productivity levels may well sound trivial but it could lead us into a world where we only need 900,000 of the buggers, rather than a million - not only would we save a fortune but we'd have fewer of them. It's a double win for humanity!

I have a simple take on 'smart' devices - like the smart TV I bought some time back.
It has never been given access to the internet.

Most devices in my home have witnessed me giving a cup of coffee to non-cooperative devices (notice the vents on your PC, for example, designed for beverage injection).
The others, having witnessed the consequences of my confusing 'smart' with 'wise ass', just sit their quietly and try not to attract my attention.

This way it sounds more like carpe diem, right?

Anyone play (or have played) Cribbage? I remember many decades ago (between 3 and 6 ) learning and playing with my grandfather for hours. Played during high school, college and several workplaces when it was slow.
Relevancy is that I was cleaning up some old HDDs and found a cribbage hand generator and scoring application I had written some years ago. I was curious as to whether my anecdotal evidence of the average value of a cribbage hand was matched by a statistical analysis of many thousands of generated hands.
At that time when I wanted to learn a new language, I would see how hard it was to write a hand evaluator for scoring. I seem to remember doing it in FORTRAN, Q-Basic, VB 6.0, Forth, MUMPS, C, C++, PL/1 and a couple of others.
I guess it is time to write another one, in a 'modern' language, just for grins and giggles.
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, navigate a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects! - Lazarus Long
