Stubborn Baby
W is a stubborn baby. Last week he gained the ability to crawl all over, and shortly before that he gained the ability to sit up right (from a laying-down position). So, now when he gets put to bed, he can rebel and sit up right.

Protein, Burpees & Waterfalls
Out to the driveway we went. I gave them a tutorial on the jump, the squat, the plank and the pushup. We worked through each of the motions one at a time and then finally combined them together and started doing sets. They easily knocked out a set of ten followed by a set of five. Very impressive!
RAM Disk on macOS for Xcode DerivedData
Xcode spits out an unfathomable number of object files when it builds my projects. And that directly impacts the life of my SSD. And when the SSD in my Mac is soldered onto the motherboard, that's a big deal. We should use a RAM disk instead.
Two LLMs to Rule Them All
AI coding is still very much the wild west in a sense, at least in part because it is improving so rapidly. Not the AI specifically. The AI (Opus, ChatGPT, et al) actually tend to fluctuate. Opus has been noted for the past couple of months to have been on

In my continuing effort to get rid of things, I started going through my book boxes. I don't have any worthless books. At one time or another, each book was incredibly important; vital, even. From that once, long ago, vital need, there now exists some sentimentality for what
Depression Hates a Moving Target
I admit it's not exactly the same thing; there's a more generalized value to what Winston Churchill relied upon to battle his depression, that I've certainly employed. I think I've talked about this before. Working a job. Employer brings in consulting company.
Sin is Crouching at the Door
I was in a lengthy meeting when I heard, from elsewhere in the house, bellowing / hollering uncharacteristic of K, but distinctly K's voice. A parent can ofter tell the different types of "cries", and I knew something tragic (at least in his mind) had just happened,
The Supportive Wife
I found this plate in the fridge, waiting for me, when I went upstairs wondering what I should eat for lunch. It's the little things that make the difference, but to be honest, putting together a lunch is hardly a "little thing". And S knew that
It Pays to be a Woman
My wife grabbed W and ran off to the grocery store. She texts me half an hour later with a picture of one of the tires (see below). Apparently it is flat. But she has made it to an air pump somewhere.
She really does have a knack for finding
