The Filmmaker who replaced his eyeball with a camera to conduct documentaries

Meet filmmaker who replaced his eyeball with a camera to conduct documentaries..The 43-year-old (Spence)can switch the camera on and off at the tap of a button..Spence - who now calls himself Eyeborg - said the eye-cam allows him to conduct interviews without the intrusion or distraction of bulky cameras or film crews. The eye-cam resembles a regular prosthetic eye but it is embedded with a camera.
Spence cannot see out of the lense but a what the 'eye' can see is visible from a handheld monitor.

But due to the technology within the camera, it can only be used for three minutes at a time without overheating.
Spence said:

"Literally everybody [said] it as a joke - ‘Oh, you should get an eye camera'.

"The two reactions are, ‘Wow, that’s so cool’ — and, after a few moments’ reflection, ‘But that’s so creepy'.

“I’ve actually started wondering, do we want to have constant video of our lives? It’s just another data set. And I don’t know the answer, but I think no, we don’t want that. But it’s coming anyway."
The decision came also because his eye was not working..

Then another friend of mine in Philippines told me again about this topic of cryptocurrency and how it is beginning to rock the world of money and investment, and i decided to give it my attention and start learning about it, just the basics of where to buy the coins,how to store them, how to sell and the charges involved, the types of them (bitcoin, litecoin, ethereum,zcash etc), their values, which one is leading, dropping, the knowledge of mining, renting and etc. It is basically a lot of information that one needs to really know what they are doing before investing. Watched alot of youtube videos explaining this concept of investment, and the wow! factor was that the value of investment is growing like a little too much and faster someone invested around $200 on bi...

The" Pambana na Hali yako "

Pambana na hali yako is one of the swahili phrase trending in Tanzania. In English one would translate it as " cope with your situation" but in my own translation i would  say "be brave to fight your life battles'' i am one among the people that have been using it so much, and just recently i watched a certain comic video by one of the famous Tanzanian comedian called "Mpoki"' . It made me sit down and  think for the first time, what does "pambana na hali yako" really means to an individual?to me? Well i got five thoughtful things It means that one must be willing to endure, persist and solve the puzzles that life gives him/her, one must manage everything that life throws at them. One must stay strong for him/her self and for the people that depend on him/her given any hardship, challenge.  One must be hopeful as long as s/he is still breathing. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel, no matter how long it takes. ...
