It feels like every few months there’s a new tech “revolution” being hyped up as the future. Besides AI, what’s the most overhyped trend in tech right now? For me, it’s the constant buzz around the metaverse.

    That’s super interesting. How do you get started at something like that? Or where would a newcomer start to learn more about it?

      With me, I started applying at electronic security companies 20 years ago as a helper to pull cable and hang cameras, the simpler, more labor intensive stuff. They are always looking for people like that as the older folks like me go more into the head end set up and programming because our bodies hurt too much 😁. I learned 90% of what I know from on the job training, the rest I already had sort of a background in electronics because of my personal hobbies.
