Story time...

It's not really PC related but I will say, tech is quite impressive none the less.

So last week, a bug some how got into my room while I had the windows open despite the fact that my windows are netted. It looked like a lady bug so I gave it many chances to get out of my room. But eventually, I lost track of it. The following day, I saw what looks like a few child lady bugs that were hanging around my window even though it was closed. Since I thought they were lady bugs, I was like:

So I gently put them in some tissues and set them free. Then the following day, I saw 5 more pop up around my window. I was like hmmm. Then I investigated outside the bottom of my window and boom, saw a whole bunch. Idk how they were coming in but they were small so maybe there is an air gap somewhere. I did have bug spray but I felt like it was bad karma to kill lady bugs. But while they had the shape of a lady bug, the pattern was different. So I got out my phone and did the Google Vision thing where I can take a picture and it basically reverse image searches... And boom!

They weren't infact lady bugs but rather... Carpet beetles! And google said it's better to eliminate them.


Since then, I don't see them anymore. It does goes to show how crazy tech is these days that it is able to recognize the picture of a tiny bug and able to accurately tell me the exact species of the bug. We really do live in a pretty insane world.

I can just picture you with the can of buy spray as soon as Google told you what to do.
