Tried so hard to be so witty. Could only make this shitty ditty.

Tell us something your parents said to you, that you say to your kids (and secretly hope they'll say it to theirs). Here's mine from my Dad: Stop fiddling with your belly button. You'll make it come loose and your bum will fall off.

It looks like I won't be going to a single tech conference at this year. Things just haven't worked out. First time in many years I'm not even going to PyCon UK. Oh well, there's always 2026!

Oof. Just climbed above 150 followers. It's only a short hop from here to dog level leaderboard dominance.

Today anthropic refused to do as I asked with a content filter error - via both Claude and amp. The grossly offending request? To add the text of the AGPL licence to my project's repos.

Also, it turns out there are people willing to pay me to do what, in my head, is playing around with Lego!

I try to avoid buying/ordering anything I also cook myself. It's either better than mine and now I'm disappointed in my own efforts or it's worse and I feel rugged.

Today's batch of rocket fuel (aka cold brew) is ready. 6 aeropress spoons of freshly ground beans, as coarse as my grinder will go, into an old Hellman's mayonnaise jar, filled with filtered water and into the fridge for 12 hours. Then strain into an ex whiskey bottle.

The photo is from a previous visit but we've just got back from our favourite Carribean place - Taste of Turner, Sully, South Wales Got chatting to a couple from Barbados who said they couldn't have cooked it better at home. Feeling vindicated!

Currently driving two different projects simultaneously using a combination of claude and amp. Feeling a bit Jean-Michel Jarre.

My current thinking on using claude and amp... I've already paid good money for a 12 month claude subscription. I want my money's worth from that, so I'll use it as much as it lets me. Whenever the usage runs out, I swap to amp. I keep my setup as agent agnostic as I can possibly manage. When my subscription expires, I'll re-evaluate.

Anyone got a good way to use claude custom commands within an amp session? I have several commands defined in claude's commands directories. They're just reusable prompts. Some are standalone and I can just pipe those to amp. Others are for running within a session. (Tried asking this in the amp discord but got nowhere. Should have tried FC first)!

It never fails to amaze/amuse me how people react when they find out that my two sons and I are in business together doing freelance dev work. It's not as if small family businesses are a rarity - but they are in tech!

If you're 35* and still breathing... - give thanks to your deity of choice - make the most of it. It may not last - ignore anyone trying to tell you you're doing it wrong *see also, any other age

I just mentioned Broken Money at my irl book club. 3 people were terrified I might make it my selection. 3 were desperate to read it once I explained. 2 had no idea what we were talking about.

If you're 35 and... Oh, who am I kidding? Jeez you're more than 20 years younger than me. Have a blast!

For his entire adult life, my father kept a notebook where he recorded his main economic measure of how he was doing: Pints per hour. That's earned income expressed in the number of pints of beer it could purchase at that time in the location he was living per hour worked to gain that income. I wonder what he'd have made of crypto.
