Elon Musk became the butt of more than a few jokes after internet users pointed out Tesla’s robot demo wasn’t all it appeared to be. As it turns out, a video the billionaire posted of Optimus, the company’s much-hyped humanoid robot, was actually being controlled by a human slightly off-screen. And it’s interesting to see robot manufacturers now include assurances in their videos that they’re not doing the same deceptive magic trick as Musk.

Took my daughter for a blood draw today and we got to use a vein visualization device for the first time. It wasn't this exact model, but it was pretty similar: https://christiemed.com/products/veinviewer-models/veinviewer-vision2/

Maybe I'm just basic, but I was really impressed. Apparently it uses an infrared camera to see the patient's blood vessels and then it uses a projector to display them on the patient's skin so that the phlebotomist has an easier time finding a good blood vessel. Brilliant!

HouseFresh (an affiliate website owned by a SEO agency) are complaining they've virtually disappeared from Google Search results due to factors including "keyword swarming" (multiple pages / articles on the same topic published on multiple sites owned by the same competitor publisher) - this is as old as the hills but Google could improve SERPs by reading the business sections of the newspapers
