My biggest takeaway to the release of Emdash is that WordPress needs to start taking headless a lot more seriously. It’s API surface and even a potential GraphQL surface would really benefit from a polish, but also the ability to set it up in a next JS stack easily, perhaps with Docker or something.

Getting my VPN set up at the camper this afternoon. So excited to get to use this as my summertime office. Just look at that view!

Y’all, for 3 years it’s been the same seesaw:
Anthropic comes out with the best model on the market
Everyone rushes to Claude
Anthropic pushes usage limits usage too far
OpenAI comes out with a model that’s 90% of Claude’s model with fewer limits
Everyone runs to OpenAI
Repeat.

I had a very productive day today. Got all of my stuff done, in spite of multiple meetings in my day, and still had time to go on a lengthy walk, and fly my kite for a solid hour and a half.
Really hopeful this is a more common thing now.

Took my first dose of ADHD prescribed meds (got tested for it last week and passed with flying colors)
Holy shit dude. I feel like I’ve been holding myself back my whole life.

Screw SWOT analysis. This prompt is way more fun:
You will play the role Damien and Janis played.
[PRODUCT] is Cady.
[COMPETITOR] is Regina.
Enact the scene where Janis describes the assets Regina has and what needs to be used to take her down.

Claude, please shift the tasks you just added to Todoist over by one day.
Claude:
“Devised straightforward temporal adjustment strategy”
Whoa, easy there. We’re shifting dates, not adjusting our time machine.

Got the camper set up on my new lot this weekend. Can’t wait for the season to start! We got lucky on the lottery, and got an awesome waterfront spot!

Okay hear me out. Courtroom comedy a-la the office. Zach Galifianakis as the judge. I’ve manifested it here. Make it so, universe.

“No em dashes” is not the right way to put it. “Structure your sentences so they don’t require em-dashes” yields a much better result. I find that the problem isn’t the em-dashes as much as the overly complex sentence structures.
