ADUs
Are you considering creating a dwelling space in your backyard or near your home? Here's some info to consider:
WHAT IS A ADU?
An accessory dwelling unit (ADU), refers to a secondary residential dwelling unit located on a single-family lot. (These units can be referred to as a carriage house, granny flat, mother-in-law suite, auxiliary unit, English basement, or cottage; ADU is the technical term.)
A collection of ADUs built around one larger structure is known as a tiny house community. Both ADUs and tiny house communities are only allowed in certain states. "Construction codes tell you how to build your house," explains Andrew Morrison, of Tiny House Build. "Zoning depends on where you’ll build your house." Most of the country’s local building codes have been adopted from the International Residential Code (IRC) for one- and two-family dwellings, which contains size specifications like rooms (except bathrooms and kitchens) must be at least 70 square feet, while ceiling height must be at least 7...
Google Rank Brain
What is Google's Rank Brain? It is the artificial intelligence (AI) system used for processing search queries. These queries run at millions per second. The AI processes very large amounts of written language into vectors (mathematical entities) to communicate with the computer.
If there are words or phrases that Rank Brain doesn't identify or understand, it begins making guesses for similar data.
Rank Brain is just one of the signals used by Google to determine which search results will appear on the search page and how they are ranked. Google estimates Rank Brain is responsible for about 15% of searches making it one of the most important of the hundreds of signals used. It is continually growing and changing.
Tensor processing units (TPUs) are being leveraged for this system.
The initial rollout of Rank Brain was early in 2015. It's currently thinking........
Mobile Apps to Progressive Apps
Mobile, mobile, mobile. Over the past several years mobile reach has continued expanding. For the future, Google is predicting that mobile apps will give way to progressive apps. Their presentation last week at the developer's conference was very interesting. Mobile versions of websites gave way to mobile apps which are giving way to progressive apps. I think the concept of progressive apps sounds like the merger of mobile apps and responsive web - joining forces and functions. Package and market it however you'd like, users want similar performance and experiences from whichever device they are using whether they are using in an app or at a website.

Why Am I So Tired and Sleepy?
Cat Man Do - Simon's Cat.
Why Am I So Tired and Sleepy? The compound Adenosine (ah-DEN-o-seen) is one factor. Adenosine is produced in the human body by the degradation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the molecule that serves as the “energy currency” for the body’s various cellular functions. The amount of adenosine produced in the brain thus reflects the activity level of its neurons and glial cells. The brain’s intense activity during periods of wakefulness consumes large amounts of ATP and hence causes adenosine to accumulate.
More About Neurons
The neuron is the basic working unit of the brain, a specialized cell designed to transmit information to other nerve cells, muscle, or gland cells. Neurons are cells within the nervous system that transmit information to other nerve cells, muscle, or gland cells.
More About Glial Cells
The glial cells surround neurons and provide support for and insulation between them. Glial cells are the most abundant cell types in the central nervous system. Types of glial...
