Like peeling an onion one can give an opinion and watch what happens. Sometimes it will bring tears too. OR there may be another layer to peel in the form of public opinion of your opinion.
This weekend when Roger Ebert (famous Chicago native and film critic) passed there was no one left to give thumbs up or down so Prez Obama took upon himself (during his trip to the Silicons) to opine his thoughts on California Attorney General who happens to be an Indian African (or is it African Indian?) woman.

The latter is a community of practice that focuses on analyzing, organizing and making available reams of data that have been gathered over time by various functions within an organization for anyone in the company to utilize. This function or process is ripe for applying AI agents (or agentic AI framework) and optimize for better outcomes. It was informative. More rewarding was getting acquainted with folks who practice this craft as well as learning of what they see in the corporate or public sectors. Since the venue was Washington DC it also afforded me the chance to take evening strolls albeit the weather was trying. With wind chill in the single digit it still is a glamorous place to perambulate through history absorbing what this country has been through since its founding days.
