Claude's Opus 4.5 is ABSURD! Insanely fast, thinks in an instant, especially against known code bases, implementing features and fixes against a well-documented and understood roadmap. It's brilliant, and I'm loving the major upgrades!

Spending the week ensuring the city map is as close to perfection & vision as possible. It looks incredible, but it needs optimizations.
The game is mostly feature-complete. All planned features have been implemented. 95% of the lore is done. 80% of the items and planned interactions are done.

Hands Down, the BEST development planning tool I've ever used. It's saving me in my day job, and it's doing wonders in my side work. What an incredibly powerful tool! github.com/obra/superpo...

Sometimes you need to solve simple problems, but you're burnt out, yet, need to continue to make progress. That's a viable use case for AI. Well spec'd out plans and actionable task lists to handle the next implementation or bug fix, some firm guidance from you, and move forward.

5 Core Principles of Stoicism:
1. Focus on what you can control.
2. You control how you respond to things.
3. Ask yourself, “Is this essential?”
4. Meditate on your mortality every day.
5. Value time more than money/possessions.

I have failed myself through the vessel of AI. I preach AI governance, project specifications, and guidance all the time on social media. I take it extremely seriously at my day job -- less so my side work. My game lost 3 weeks of progress tonight because I let Claude hard reset some git branches-

Working in the wrong context window with Claude is peak frustration. Especially when it's for a completely different project 🥹

4 Day Weekend BEGIN! It's time to rest, enjoy life, snuggle up to the wife, catch up on the house, and mentally reset before the remaining few sprints left in the year.
Finishing strong and feeling great!

While not settled on or disclosing the final AI name of the ever-present and forever useful 'Agent' that can be seen leaving its mark on things. This is something that a little older than teenage Adam would have loved in the game. Something I could have never done. Exciting times!

I've finally done it--Claude is fully integrated into my development cycle and processes for Fusion Effect: ONE. I am excited to utilize AI smartly and effectively in order to help me in areas where I'm not skilled enough (animations, UI consistency, hectic array logic (think Casino Slot Machines)).

Took a 4 mile walk today. Felt good and frozen!

I am glad my first walk this week will be in 40-degree weather. Love a low-sweat workout!

I am leading an intiative at work, with case studies, metrics, and every bit of nit-picky note taking you can imagine. It's understanding the impact of introducing Spec Guides through functional requirements and Sonnet 4.5 assisted Spec-Kit (Github Specify) planning.

Im rocketing towards my weight goals. 220lbs. Something I would've expected to reach sometime in late 2026 or even 2027.
Today I weighed myself and had the largest weight drop in my journey - from 238 to 232.4.

I didn't move much today sadly. Work has been intensified 2x. Going hard AF this weekend. Down to 235 as of this morning. Jogging has been shedding my pounds! I'm feeling like the patron of good cardio lately.

Local Nature Reserve. Did an early--and painfully slow mile--thanks to my walking buddy. I can Also opt to walk 3 miles tomorrow, which will mark 20 miles over 3 days.

It's funny, my dad used to tell me, "Be more active during your day, you'll be tired at night". 16-year-old me, who sat at the computer all day, would NEVER. 36-year-old me walks many miles a day and is still not even remotely tired and would do a few more miles if time anxiety weren't real.

Looks like I'll be doing a minimum of 5 miles a weekend for the rest of the year. Goal is 20 miles over the 3 day weekend.

Looking forward to a rest day! Body is aching in odd places. 12 pm can't come soon enough :D

This is my favorite little corner of the game. It's sleek, clean, easy to read, and really captures that feel for the vibe and atmosphere.

After a nasty few days, I have accepted Tahoe, gained 50GB worth of storage, and, my local dev environment is blazing fast!

Frustratingly, the upgrade to MacOS Tahoe has broken Docker, PHPStorm, and Composer for me. Seems like the upgrade, while nice with the UI, will require me to do some tinkering to fix my dev environment :(
