making some Big Life Updates to my linkedin and I'm treating the UI like a hand grenade because I know I'll change some small thing and I just don't know if that'll trigger some event that goes into people's feeds. Closed social once you realize it doesn't have to be that way is so awful

Claude code in web is a deep research killer. Been using deep research since it came out consistently using my 5 free tier queries a month just for random stuff. Haven't moved off of it despite lots of similar options cause nothing I found was quite as good but holy shit is claude code good

AT friends #4 (@gabboman.at.app.wafrn.net ) & #5 ( @djara.dev ) were a delight–so much so that right after our chat I joined Wafrn myself.
The devs there are doing good work making the web richer, more diverse & a LOT less boring. Give it a read!

A few weeks ago a guy at a meet up wanted me to 'show him AWS' and so I spun up a ec2 and connected to it to demonstrate...that that's what an ec2 is and I felt so clever and smart...but then I forgot and it was in a virtual private cloud? which then let me not delete the virtual private cloud?

Pitch clock: fantastic.
Abolish intentional walk?: would be amazing
Give it another 30-50 small tweaks, I think baseball might start approaching something I could watch without falling asleep
