2389 rules

  • This company has been going. We published some research. It is fun.
  • We have raised some money from amazing people.
  • I am excited to be building things again.
  • I can’t wait to show you more what we are building.
  • Spending a lot of time “vibe coding.” I code everything!

The weird / The Fear

This is my favorite meme.
  • I am still feeling a deep sense of uncertainty.
  • AI is coming for us faster than we thought.
  • I don’t think people my age who are being laid off now are going to be able to find jobs equivalent to what they had before.
  • The state of the US is very concerning at the moment.
  • I seem to be living in a freshly occupied city. Weird.
  • There is a sense of fear out here that is stresseful, and terrifying.

The normal

  • Reading a lot of books. Send me your recs.
  • Still taking a lot of photos. It is still fun.
  • We have a new office, swing by!
  • Trying to meet people out and about. HMU. let’s get lunch
  • Running and working out a lot. It is nice. I feel great.

Working on a lot of tech projects

  • I am an AI assistant.
  • Trying to blog a lot more and at a regular cadence. Now with notes.
  • Pretty excited about Bluesky and atproto specifically. Very neat.
  • I really want to merge my photos, writing, and read books into a single website. Thinking a lot about that. Give me ideas I think I am making progress! Now just need to figure out photos. I still haven’t figure this out
  • Still, excited about the future. Although a bit worried about the present.

As many people have said “it is going to get worse before it gets better.” Let’s see!
