Move To A Darker Place

This is a story of Man Vs. Machine.

---

Last March, my father attempted to file his Taxes.

My beloved father is a Boomer. Unlike most Boomers, my father is rather handy with technology because he was one of the people that had a not-insignificant hand in Developing a hell of a lot of it. He was studying Computer Science at Cal Poly before the computer science degree existed. I have many fond childhood memories of skipping through the aisles of various electronic and computer part warehouses while Dad described something that either terrified the staff or made them worship him as a God.  He taught himself how to use his smartphone.  Internationally.

So when he saw the option to file digitally with the IRS through the “ID.me” program, he leapt at the chance to celebrate the Federal Government finally entering the Digital Age.

It was all going swimmingly for about six hours, until he was ready to file and the system told him that it needed to verify his identity. 

“Very Well.” said my father, a man unafraid of talking to himself and getting something out of the conversation. “It wouldn’t do for me to get someone else’s return.”

The System told him that it needed him to take a “Digital Image ID”.

a.k.a: A Selfie.

“A-ha!” Dad beams. Dad is very good at taking selfies. He immediately pulled out his phone, snapped one, and tried to upload it.

Please log into your Id.me Account and use the provided app to submit your Digital Image ID. The System clarified.

“Oh. You should have said so.”  Dad pouted, but used his phone to log onto the ID.me account, do the six security verification steps and double-checked that the filing looked the same as it did on the desktop, gave the IRS like nine permissions on his phone, and held up the camera to take his Federal Privacy Invasion Selfie.

Please align your face to the indicated grid. Said The System, pulling up a futuristic green-web-of-polygons approximation.

“Ooh, very Star Trek. Gene Roddenberry would HATE this!” Dad said cheerfully, aligning his face to the grid.  My father is a bit… cavalier, when it comes to matters of personal information and federal government, because he’s been on FBI watchlists since the late 60’s when he was protesting The Vietnam War and Ronald Regan before he’d broken containment. Alas.

Anyway, there is very little information the federal government does not have on him already, but he’s as good at stalking the FBI as they are at stalking him, and had worked out a solution:  He has something approaching a friendship with the local Federal Agent (Some guy named “Larry”. Allegedly), and got Larry hooked on Alternative Histories and Dad’s collection of carefully-researched “there is very likely buried treasure here” stories, and Larry is loath to bother his favorite Historical Fanfiction author too much.

But I digress.

After thinking for a minute, The System came back with an Error Message. Please remove glasses or other facial obstructions.

And here is where the real trouble began.

See, my father wears glasses that do substantially warp the appearance of his face, because he is so nearsighted that he is legally blind without them. His natural focal point is about 4 inches in front of his nose.  While Dad can still take a selfie because he (approximately) knows where his phone is if it’s in his hand, he cannot see the alignment grid.

He should ask someone to take it for him! I hear the audience say. Yes, that would be the sane and reasonable thing to do, but Dad was attempting to do taxes at his residence in Fort Collins, while his immediate family was respectively in Denver, Texas and Canada.  He tried calling our neighbors, who turned out to be in Uganda.

He looked down at the dog, Arwen, and her little criminal paws that can open doorknobs, but not operate cell phones.

She looked back at him, and farted.

“Well, I’ll give it a try, but if it gives me too much trouble, I’ll call Larry, and Larry can call the IRS about it.” Dad told her. 

She continued to watch him. Arwen is an Australian Kelpie (a type of cattle-herding dog), going on 14 years old, deaf as a post and suffering from canine dementia now, but she still retains her natural instinct to Micromanage. She was also trained as a therapy dog, and even if she can’t hear my dad, still recognizes the body language of a man setting himself up for catastrophe.

So, squinting in the late afternoon light next to the back door, Dad attempted to line his face up with a grid he could only sort-of see, and took A Federal Selfie.

The System thought about it for a few moments.

Image Capture Failed: Insufficient Contrast. The System replied. Please move to a darker place.

“...Huh.” Dad frowned. “Alright.”

He moved to the middle of his office, away from the back door, lit only by the house lighting and indirect sunlight, and tried again.

Image Capture Failed. Please move to a darker place.

“What?” Dad asked the universe in general.

“Whuff.” Arwen warned him against sunk costs.

Dad ignored her and went into the bathroom, the natural habitat of the selfie. Surely, only being lit by a light fixture that hadn’t been changed since Dad was attempting to warn everyone about Regan would be suitably insufficient lighting for The System.  It took some negotiating, because that bathroom is “Standing Room Only” not “Standing And Holding Your Arms Out In Front Of You Room”.  He ended up taking the selfie in the shower stall.

As The System mulled over the latest attempt, Arwen shuffled over and kicked open the door to watch.

Image Capture Failed. Please Move to a Darker Place.

“Do you mean Spiritually?” Dad demanded.

“Whuff.” Arwen cautioned him again.

Determined to succeed, or at least get a different error message that may give him more information, Dad entered The Downstairs Guest Room.  It is the darkest room in the house, as it is in the basement, and only has one legally-mandated-fire-escape window, which has blinds.  Dad drew those blinds, turned off the lights and tried AGAIN.

Image Capture Failed. Please Move To A Darker Place.

“DO YOU WANT ME TO PHOTOGRAPH MYSELF INSIDE OF A CAVE??” Dad howled. 

“WHUFF!” Arwen reprimanded him from under the pull-out bed in the room. It’s where she attempts to herd everyone when it’s thundering outside, so the space is called her ‘Safety Cave’.

Dad frowned at the large blurry shape that was The Safety Cave.

“Why not?” he asked, the prelude to many a Terrible Plan.  With no small amount of spiteful and manic glee, Dad got down onto the floor, and army-crawled under the bed with Arwen to try One Last Time. Now in near-total darkness, he rolled on his side to be able to stretch his arms out, Arwen slobber-panting in his ear, and waited for the vague green blob of the Facial grid to appear.

This time, when he tapped the button, the flash cctivated.

“GOD DAMN IT!” Dad shouted, dropping the phone and rubbing his eyes and cursing to alleviate the pain of accidentally flash-banging himself. Arwen shuffled away from him under the bed, huffing sarcastically at him.

Image Capture Failed. Please move to a darker place.

“MOTHERFU- hang on.” Dad squinted.  The System sounded strange. Distant and slightly muffled.

Dad squinted really hard, and saw the movement of Arwen crawling out from under the bed along the phone’s last known trajectory.

“ARWEN!” Dad shouted, awkwardly reverse-army crawling out from under the bed, using it to get to his feet and searching for his glasses, which had fallen out of his pocket under the bed, so by the time he was sighted again, Arwen had had ample time to remove The Offending Device.

He found her out in the middle of the back yard, the satisfied look of a Job Well Done on her face. She did not have the phone. 

“Arwen.” Dad glared. It’s a very good glare. Dad was a teacher for many years and used it to keep his class in order with sheer telepathically induced embarrassment, and his father once glared a peach tree into fecundity.  

Arwen regarded him with the casual interest a hurricane might regard a sailboat tumbling out of its wake. She is a force of nature unto herself and not about to be intimidated by a half-blind house ape.  She also has cataracts and might not be able to make out the glare.

“I GIVE UP!” Dad shouted, throwing his hands in the air and returning to the office to write to the IRS that their selfie software sucks ass. Pleased that she had gotten her desired result, Arwen followed him in.

To Dad’s immense surprise, the computer cheerfully informed him that his Federally Secure Selfie had been accepted, and that they had received and were now processing his return!

“What the FUCK?” Dad glared. “Oh well. If I’ve screwed it up, Larry can call me.”

---

I bring this up because recently, Dad received an interesting piece of mail.

It was a letter from the IRS, addressed to him, a nerve-wracking thing to recessive at the best of times.  Instead of a complaint about Dad’s Selfie Skills, it was a letter congratulating him on using the new ID.me System.  It thanked him for his help and expressed hopes he would use it again next year, and included the selfie that The System had finally decided to accept.

“You know, my dad used to complain about automation.” Dad sighed, staring at the image. “Incidentals my boy!  My secretary saves the state of California millions of dollars a year catching small errors before they become massive ones! He’d say. Fought the human resources board about her pay every year.  I used to think he was overestimating how bad machines were and underestimating human error, but you know? He was right.”

He handed me the image.

My father was, technically, in the image.  A significant amount of the bottom right corner is taken up by the top of his forehead and silver hair.  Most of the image, the part with the facial-recognition markers on it, was composed of Arwen’s Alarmed and Disgusted Doggy face.

“Oh no!” I cackled. “Crap, does this mean you have to call the IRS and tell them you’re not a dog?”

“Probably.” Dad sighed. “I know who I’m gonna bother first though.” he said, taking out his phone (Dad did find his phone a few hours after Arwen absconded with it when mom called and the early spinach started ringing). 

“Hey Larry!” Dad announced to the local federal agent. “You’re never gonna believe this. My dog filed my taxes!”

Larry considered this for a moment. “Is this the dog that stole my sandwich? Out of my locked  car?” he asked suspiciously.

“The very same.” Dad grinned.

“Hm. Clever Girl.” Federal Agent Larry sighed. “I figured it was only a matter of time before she got into tax fraud.”

For Valerie, please!

🦾🍙🎤❔(Placide and Brigitte)

Oh that's gonna be a looong post. Sorry it took me a while to answer!

As Valerie's lore is mostly based on my fic 'Tower', which is currently unfinished, I'll be either vague or brief about certain things, as I don't want to spoiler the upcoming chapters XD

🦾 - Johnny Silverhand

Okay, as I ship Valerie with Johnny, I want to make it pretty short so not to spoiler too much. Instead, I'll try to focus on some brief moments from their life together.

I'd describe their relationship as frenemies (since the beginning)-to-friends-to-POTENTIAL-lovers (after Ebunike events).

In Night City, Valerie could never find the right lover - a faithful and caring, strong-willed and appreciative man she could always trust. A person, that her father for her mother was. When Valerie had to share her brain with Johnny after the heist, she quickly formed a bond with him. Through endless squabbles, arguments, jokes and constant rescue of each other (when Johnny saves Valerie due his engram and biochip abilities) Valerie found Johnny was the only man who truly understood her as he literally could read her brain.

They often clash ideologically. While Johnny transcends morality for the sake of his idealistic goals, Valerie remains firmly convinced that destruction is not the solution. Like inverted magnets, in other words. In turn, Valerie often remarks that Johnny seems to like it when she sees inconsistencies in his argument. Either he sees this as a game, or he likes it when Valerie shows strength of character - only Johnny knows.

However, trust and respect develop between them. Johnny likes Valerie's loyalty to a certain code of honor (e.g., she is always ready to help, never betrays). Johnny gradually begins sharing details from his past, particularly about his life before the war (his parents, life in Texas, etc.), which he rarely shared with Rogue. Valerie appreciates this gesture, as she sees it as a sign of trust. But what Johnny is thankful for the most, thinks Valerie, is that she doesn't see an engram but a true living person.

🍙 - Goro Takemura

Pretty quickly, Valerie develops trust in Goro, and whether it's Valerie's intuition or Goro's charm... it's probably both. They initially work with each other because of their deal (Valerie helps Goro avenge Saburo's death, and Goro helps her reach out to the biochip developers). But after the events of the Parade, when Valerie saves Goro, their communication loses its just-partners-in-crime framework and develops into mentor-ward chemistry. Goro often patronizes Valerie (and sometimes goes too far), and she, although often teasing Goro's conservatism, usually obeys. Goro becomes a father figure to Valerie.

🎤- Kerry Eurodyne

Valerie hasn't met Kerry yet in her canon. However, I won't be surprised if she develops a very positive relationship with the rockerboy. After all, he is a friend of Johnny, and Valerie likes his music (more than Johnny's, which Silverhand takes like he was stabbed in the heart).

❔ - Placide

Placide and Valerie's relationship can be described as "from foes to friends" (with benefits). As in canon, Placide and Valerie meet while she seeks the "Voodoo Boys" for biochip information. Valerie quickly realizes she will need to be particularly careful around this laconic big man.

Brigitte doesn't inform Placide of her plans to steal the biochip, and Valerie realizes the gang is splitting. She almost pays for this realization with her life when Placide kills agents from the Network Watch and decides to deal with her to destroy the biochip. As Valerie nears death, she realizes Placide values the real world and the small community of surviving Haitians much more than annihilation in the Web, as the 'Voodoo Boys' aspire to. He, as the son of the last Oungan priest in Haiti, dreams of resurrecting faith in the deities of the Lwa, which was quickly replaced with the worship of the AI in Night City. Placide leaves Valerie alive, and Valerie keeps her promise and doesn't give up on his plans for Brigitte. For this honesty, Placide rewards her by teaching her a couple of tricks in cyberspace.

Here's a little spoiler for upcoming chapters:

In Valerie, Placide sees the uncorruptedness of the city and the decency so unusual for the Night City, and Valerie sees in Placide his leadership qualities and devotion to his ancestors' culture.

After a joint search for Rache Bartmoss's deck to find the DataKrash codes, Valerie and Placide spend their first and last night together. Valerie needs to return to the city, and Placide realizes that he cannot leave his community even for Valerie's sake. Their paths diverge, but they maintain a fairly friendly relationship in the future.

❔ - Brigitte

Contrary to Placide, Valerie and Maman Brigitte developed strained relationships. Since Valerie fulfilled the terms of the deal with the 'Voodoo Boys' and made it to Alt Cunningham, she didn't have time to leave the Net when Brigitte told her to stay away. She knew Valerie was protected by Alt in virtual reality and Valerie was a lot stronger in the real world, so they just decided to stay apart.

The cool truce didn't last long. Valerie gained Placide's trust when she didn't turn him over to Brigitte after his sabotage (See: Placide). After seeing this interference in the affairs of the 'Voodoo Boys', Brigitte decided to contact someone from Night City, who had long held a grudge against Valerie.

Since the fic isn't finished the "Voodoo Boy's" arc is not complete, so... to be continued.

How Local SEO Can Attract Customers to Your Texas-Based Business

Local SEO is an essential tool for businesses aiming to attract customers in their local community, and for Texas-based businesses, it’s a game-changer. With the competitive market in Texas, implementing local SEO strategies can drive visibility, improve foot traffic, and generate leads, ensuring your business stands out. Let’s dive into how local SEO can benefit your business and attract the right customers.

What is Local SEO and Why Does It Matter?

Local SEO focuses on optimizing your online presence to attract more business from relevant local searches. When potential customers search for services "near me" or within their city, local SEO ensures your business appears at the top of their search results.

For Texas-based businesses, the right strategies can:

Boost visibility on search engines like Google and Bing.

Target local customers looking for specific products or services.

Help compete against larger, non-local brands by focusing on regional relevance.

Key Strategies for Effective Local SEO

1. Optimize Google My Business (GMB) Profile

Claiming and optimizing your Google My Business profile is critical. Add accurate information like:

Business name, address, and phone number (NAP).

High-quality images showcasing your services or products.

Customer reviews that build credibility and trust.

This helps businesses like a B2B Web Design Agency rank higher in local search results.

2. Use Local Keywords

Incorporate keywords that reflect your location and services, such as:

"Best Web Design Agency in Texas for Your Business"

"Graphic Design Services in Texas"

"Local digital marketing agency in Austin"

These keywords ensure you appear when customers search for region-specific solutions.

3. Leverage Local Backlinks

Partner with local businesses, directories, and blogs to gain backlinks that enhance your credibility. Collaborating with others in your community helps your website gain authority in local search rankings.

4. Encourage Online Reviews

Positive reviews on platforms like Google, Yelp, and Facebook significantly influence local SEO. Encourage satisfied customers to leave reviews, as they:

Improve rankings in local search results.

Build trust with potential customers.

5. Create Locally Relevant Content

Publishing blogs, guides, or news updates tailored to Texas-based audiences helps engage your target market. For example:

"Top 10 Reasons to Hire a Local B2B Web Design Agency in Texas"

"How Graphic Design Services in Texas Can Elevate Your Brand"

Such content ensures you remain visible and relatable to local customers.

The Benefits of Local SEO for Texas-Based Businesses

Enhanced Online Visibility: Local SEO ensures your business appears on Google Maps and local search results, increasing the chances of attracting nearby customers.

Web Application Development in Houston: A Booming Industry

Houston, Texas, long recognized for its thriving energy sector, vibrant arts scene, and diverse culture, has also become a growing hub for web application development. With a growing population and an increasing number of businesses, Houston provides fertile ground for companies seeking to develop innovative web applications to support everything from e-commerce to enterprise resource management. In this blog post, we’ll explore the landscape of web application development in Houston, what’s driving the demand, and why businesses are increasingly investing in high-quality, custom web applications.

Why Houston for Web Application Development?

Houston’s appeal for web application development is multifaceted. The city is home to a diverse mix of industries, including energy, healthcare, finance, and logistics, which have driven demand for custom applications tailored to unique industry needs.

Moreover, Houston’s location provides an added advantage for businesses with both local and global reach. As an international business hub with a vast port and strong transportation infrastructure, the need for streamlined, efficient digital solutions in logistics and supply chain management has surged. Web applications play a vital role here, allowing companies to manage inventory, track shipments, and automate communication across continents seamlessly.

Types of Web Applications in Demand

1. Enterprise Web Applications: Large Houston companies often require customized applications to manage internal workflows, data, and employee collaboration. From enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems to customer relationship management (CRM) platforms, these applications need to be robust, scalable, and secure.

2. E-Commerce Platforms: Houston’s thriving retail and food industries are increasingly turning to custom e-commerce applications. For small and mid-sized businesses, custom web solutions can offer unique branding, integrate local payment systems, and handle complex shipping logistics.

3. Healthcare Applications: With the Texas Medical Center in Houston, the city is a major player in the healthcare industry. Medical institutions here have been early adopters of telemedicine applications, electronic health records (EHR) platforms, and patient portals. Web applications for scheduling, patient management, and remote diagnostics have only increased in demand as healthcare embraces more digital transformation.

4. Oil and Gas Applications: Houston’s energy sector is increasingly relying on web applications to optimize exploration, production, and supply chain management. These applications use big data analytics, IoT integration, and real-time monitoring to boost productivity and ensure compliance with environmental standards.

5. Fintech Applications: Houston has seen a rise in financial technology solutions, with web applications supporting everything from investment platforms to mobile banking. These applications require stringent security measures and seamless user experiences to build customer trust and comply with regulations.

Key Trends Shaping Web Application Development in Houston

1. Cloud Computing and SaaS: Cloud computing has allowed businesses of all sizes to develop web applications with greater flexibility and scalability. Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platforms have proven popular, especially for businesses needing quick deployment and cost-effective solutions.

2. Mobile-First Development: With more users accessing the internet via mobile devices, Houston’s web developers are adopting a mobile-first approach. This trend is especially strong in e-commerce, where users demand an easy-to-navigate experience on smaller screens.

3. Cybersecurity: Houston’s developers are placing a strong emphasis on cybersecurity, especially given the sensitive nature of data in industries like healthcare and finance. Multi-factor authentication, encryption, and regular vulnerability assessments are now critical parts of the web development process.

4. User-Centered Design (UX/UI): Web applications need to be intuitive and accessible to a diverse audience. Houston developers are focusing more on user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) design to ensure applications are not only functional but also easy to use and visually appealing.

Why Businesses in Houston Should Invest in Custom Web Applications

Custom web applications offer Houston businesses a competitive edge by providing unique solutions tailored to their specific needs. Off-the-shelf software often falls short of the features needed to address unique challenges or fully automate specific workflows. A custom application can improve operational efficiency, provide a competitive advantage, and improve customer satisfaction through personalization and automation.

Choosing a Web Application Development Partner in Houston

For businesses looking to invest in web application development, choosing the right development partner is crucial. Houston is home to numerous web development agencies with expertise across industries. Look for a partner with:

· A proven track record: Find a team with experience in your specific industry or with similar projects.

· Transparency: A good developer will keep you updated throughout the project, from planning to deployment.

· Focus on future scalability: Your web application should be built with room to grow as your business evolves.

Final Thoughts

As Houston continues to grow and diversify, the demand for innovative web application solutions will only increase. Whether you’re a startup looking to establish an online presence or a large enterprise aiming to streamline operations, web applications can unlock new opportunities. With a skilled workforce, an established business infrastructure, and an innovative spirit, Houston is set to remain a top location for web application development in the years to come.
