One thing I love about weekends is just doing work. The week often gets really hectic and spontaneous where what you planned to do is simply not what you ended up doing. During the weekend I can focus completely uninterrupted with no slack, email, or random meetings. Just get work done. And it feels good.

I was experimenting with OpenAI API and started with the gpt-4o-mini model. The docs say that all non-latest models are trained up to a certain date, which for mini is October 2023. Did not realize this training includes what it knows as today's date. It is literally stuck at a point in time.

Rubber duck debugging isn’t utilized enough in tech companies. Especially when the duck can be a coworker.

My wife was prepping a smoothie with a bunch of fruit, juice, and yogurt. Turned it on high speed without the cover. Torn between laughing and comforting.

Me and my daughter (who has taken a rather keen interest in FC): "Lena, I seem to get higher engagement when I cast about you." "That's because I slay!"

A competitor explained their strategy on a call today and it was so baffling I couldn’t tell if he was playing 4-D chess or tic-tac-toe.
