  • Psychologists reveal dead giveaway phrases that show a person's lack of confidence.  Here are some examples:
  1. "I'm just being honest".  Psychologists:  can be a form of gaslighting used to avoid responsibility for negative comments.
  2. "I don't care what people think".  Psychologists: Likely a shield for someone's insecurities when they are acutely sensitive to people's comments.
  3. "I was just joking".  Psychologists:  When used after a negative comment, it can be a way of avoiding responsibility.
  4. "You're too sensitive".  Psychologists:  Person throwing your upset feeling into question after you took an insult is a cheap way of absolving themselves of guilt.
  5. "It's no big deal".  Psychologists:  Another comment to avoid responsibility.
  • What all of these phrases have in common:  lack of confidence and security in a relationship to accept responsibility

  • A team of spatial computer scientists at Stanford University have created breakthrough AR-VR glasses that look like ordinary eyeglasses but offer extraordinary new perspectives.  Here are some key facts:
  • These AR glasses are considered a major breakthrough - they're not big, cumbersome and annoying but are small. lightweight and not obtrusive
  • Thinner, lighter and of higher quality than existing models
  • They use holographic imaging to overlay vibrant, full color, 3D computed images over the lenses
  • They combine advances in AI, display technologies and holographic images
  • Meant for all-day wear and considered a breakthrough for AR experiences
  • Expected to be of great value to surgeons during surgery
  • Also could transform education, entertainment, gaming and job training through the use of computed imagery
  • It's in prototype form and is being called "one-of-a-kind" that could disrupt the spatial computing market.

US Army Invention - Drone Defense Source:  US Army Drone Netting Device Drone Netting Grenade U.S Army researchers have created a 40 mm grenade to protect the armed forces from menacing, enemy or rogue drones.  The defensive drone grenade takes out the drone with a weighted net. Countermeasure - Net Bagging a Drone The net is spring loaded and ejects from the front of the grenade when it nears the drone target.  The net can be triggered remotely by a person on the ground or automatically by an onboard proximity sensor. Drone Defense The net springs open to 30 feet in diameter.  It traps the drone, causing it to fall to the ground.  Word of this new drone defensive technology has just been released.  For more news stories on important innovations, go to  amazon.com/author/ekane
