He explains that it’s illegal in all states to record a conversation you’re not personally part of, so stick with cameras that record only video. Audio surveillance is a different story, however: “The laws are much more strict about audio recording than they are video recording,” says Andrew Geronimo, professor of law and director of the First Amendment Clinic at Case Western Reserve University. As family and matrimonial lawyer Martha Cohen Stine, of Cohen Stine Kapoor LLP, explains, nationwide it is legal to install a hidden camera in your home for visual surveillance without the consent of a nanny or other third party, but cameras are never allowed in places where there is an “expectation of privacy,” like a bathroom, changing room, or bedroom for a live-in babysitter or housekeeper. As Francis Jago, CMO of interactive espionage museum Spyscape, says, “With more than 1.7 million packages stolen from doorsteps across America, people are increasingly keen to monitor events outside their homes.” Todd Morris, CEO of BrickHouse Security, says he often sells hidden cameras in office settings, as they “are great tools for capturing harassment and theft.” They “can turn a he-said, she-said argument into something with solid proof that you can bring to an HR department,” he explains.īefore using any hidden cameras, you’ll want to review the surveillance laws in your state. Hidden cameras may bring to mind Cold War–era spy dramas or suspicious-looking teddy bears hiding nanny cams, but with the rise of new technology like video doorbells and DIY home security systems, covert surveillance is on the rise among those looking to keep an eye on, yes, nannies, but also housekeepers, home health aides (especially for seniors), and package deliveries.

Plug-ins extend copilots, giving them access to third-party data and other services. The next step is giving the copilot a “meta-prompt,” or a base description of the copilot’s role and how it should function.Ĭloud-based storage can be added to AI copilots created with Azure AI Studio for the purposes of keeping track of a conversation with a user and responding with the appropriate context and awareness. In Azure AI Studio, the copilot-building process starts with selecting a generative AI model like GPT-4. “It’s a tremendous accelerant for our customers to be able to build their own copilots.” “In our Azure AI Studio, we’re making it easy for developers to ground Azure OpenAI Service models on their data … and do that securely without seeing that data or having to train a model on the data.” John Montgomery, Microsoft’s CVP of AI platform, told TechCrunch via email. But its AI-powered copilots can’t necessarily draw on a company’s proprietary data to perform tasks - unlike copilots created through Azure AI Studio. The company has created several such apps, such as Bing Chat. Microsoft defines a “copilot” as a chatbot app that uses AI, typically text-generating or image-generating AI, to assist with tasks like writing a sales pitch or generating images for a presentation. (Recall that Azure OpenAI Service is Microsoft’s fully managed, enterprise-focused product designed to give businesses access to AI lab OpenAI’s technologies with added governance features.) Today at its annual Build conference, Microsoft launched Azure AI Studio, a new capability within the Azure OpenAI Service that lets customers combine a model like OpenAI’s ChatGPT or GPT-4 with their own data - whether text or images - and build a chat assistant or another type of app that “reasons over” the private data. In other words, everything I use to generate images also works in the browser.Microsoft wants companies to build their own AI-powered “copilots” - using tools on Azure and machine learning models from its close partner OpenAI, of course. This package provides us a Node.js based implementation of the Canvas API that we know and love in the browser. The banner is a PNG image, and to keep the post focused on the subject (“how to create and save an image with Node.js and Canvas”) I’ll skip some parts.Īlso, there are many different ways of doing what I did, here’s just one way.įirst of all, what npm packages do we need? So after stumbling upon a nice inspiration for a banner image, I decided to make a custom banner for each of my blog posts. I’ve had this thought of programmatically generating them since I saw Indie Hackers generating those images for forum blog posts (a great idea): There’s no way I can make like 500 banner images at hand. There’s a problem: I stopped making those custom banner images a long time ago, and most of my posts don’t have a banner. If a post has no image, I show my avatar instead: I set up Hugo so it uses an image named banner.png or banner.jpg stored in the post folder to be used as the Open Graph image, like this: I share my blog posts on Twitter, and there’s been a time when I entertained myself drawing drawing an image for each blog post.

One is Roth's re-creation of Picasso's Three Musicians another is a re-creation of the René Magritte painting Time Transfixed. Several of Roth's works even take a tongue-in-cheek look, at fine art. His commentary came from a different direction, but art aficionados like Robert Williams were eventually drawn to his effusive style, and artists like Roth helped blur the line between highbrow and "outsider" art. "The cartoon character who used to frighten me as a child was now on these gentle messages," Decker recalls.Īlthough Roth traveled in the circles of the hot-rod crowd, his work had a relationship with more elevated Pop Art of the '60s and beyond, which often appropriated images from the worlds of comics and advertising in the service of ironic commentary. Jeff Decker, who met Roth growing up in Southern California when his father worked with Roth at Cars of the Stars, later sought the artist out in Manti, and was surprised to find Rat Fink emblazoned on signs reading "Slow Down," "Watch for Children" and the like. How else is one to rebel when tattoos become common? In the world of custom cars, Mormonism is super-strange, very out-there." Nor, really, is it a rejection of his rebellion. "But this transformation doesn't equate to a rejection of his cultural projection, or his unique way in which he saw the world. "As much as he stood for the counterculture that resisted the pristine-ness squeaky cleanness of Disney, he was fully converted to Mormonism and moved to Manti to be close to the temple," Hurtado notes. He was even invited to deliver a lecture at Brigham Young University in 1999. Thus, the effect of community follows Ed into Utah, and his creative production comes to shape that place as well."Ī convert to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1975, Roth didn't just pay lip service to his faith but actively embraced it while continuing his design work. "Within that time frame, Ed Roth emerged as both a regional and an international artist who not only stood as an icon for custom car ethos and all the alternative subculture that came with it, but also, his legacy has come to shape and inform the small town of Manti with the annual Rat Fink car show and reunion. "I was involved with the Granary when I curated their inaugural exhibition, so their mission-to exhibit local, regional and international artists, with particular attention to place and community-had been on my mind," she recalls. For Laura Allred Hurtado, global acquisition art curator for the LDS Church History Museum, who is guest curating the exhibit, it was a bit of a stretch from her usual subject matter, but she found commonalities in his work. The exhibit Rat Fink! collects the art of Roth-in addition to fellow hot-rodder Von Dutch and outsider artist/ Juxtapoz Magazine founder Robert Williams-for the first time in Utah, at the Granary Art Center in Ephraim. But there's another side to the larger-than life figure, who was a Utah resident, living in Manti until his death in 2001. Roth was known for his instrumental role in the car culture of the period with his eye-popping, outlandish custom car designs, as well as cartoon characters like Rat Fink-a crazed rodent with a manic, ravenous grin and bulging eyeballs-a weirdo answer to Mickey Mouse. Ed "Big Daddy" Roth: You're probably familiar with the name, especially if you're 40 or older, and had any interest in the counterculture of the 1960s and '70s.

The manager, Shelley, told me that this reservation was cancelled on Sept 3 as a no show and that it was cancelled by the call centre, not by her staff and that she doesn't have any male staff to whom I could have spoken with. This is information contained on the cancellation email, this info was provided to me by Hilton corporate office. The reservation was cancelled by the hotel at 11:24 by the hotel which coincides with the timing of my second call when the man told me he would waive the fee. I called at 11:15 am and 11:22 am documented by Virgin Mobile on Sept 2. They said they have no record of my second call and that it was quite impossible that I called back. When I find out that they did not waive the fee and charged my credit card, I called them. I have call records of these 2 calls to this hotel. I called back 7 minutes later and spoke to a male staff member and I explained that I want to change my stay to the Brampton Home2. I called on Sept 2 and spoke to Virginia and she said the fee can't be waived. I booked a non-refundable rate at this hotel for Sept 3-4. We will not stay there again and would not recommend this hotel to anyone.… Virginia was the only good experience at this hotel. When we went for breakfast we went to the front desk to ask about our bill and thank goodness Virginia was once again working and she adjusted our bill. Next morning we get our email invoice and of course it was full price. We had to make the best of it as it was all we had. Couch cushions were ripped and had stains all over them as well as the desk chair. She told us she would take $100 of of the bill for the inconvenience. Melanie did find us a room finally and although it’s not the same as the room we had booked we were happy to at least have a place to sleep. Melanie came out and just kept saying she didn’t know what happened and said it was the computers fault. He had to get help as he didn’t know what to do. Went back to the front desk and was told by Tinushe that they had no more rooms. They had already given our room to someone else. Checked in and thought everything was great until we got to our room and found the door open. We got back to the hotel about 5:45 and power was back on. After waiting about 2 hours we decided to go to the mall. Virginia greeted us, apologized for Mother Nature and gave us an area in the lobby so we could wait for the power to come back on. We arrived at the hotel about 12:30 and power was out. Spoke to Virginia she was super nice and super accommodating. Called on the day of stay for early check in. Had booked this hotel 2 months in advanced for a birthday/shopping weekend. Hilton Tulum Riviera Maya All-Inclusive Resort.Hilton Playa del Carmen, an All-Inclusive Adult Only Resort.
