Our disc golf league started up again for the season. It was a little wet today…
Early morning indie hacking on the back deck with coffee brewing… Bliss ☕💻
I cracked open our back door to be serenaded by the birds this morning. Every Spring I’m reminded how much I missed them during the Winter. 🐦
I present to you… “Jake Jobs”. Google AI Studio is fun 😂
Yesterday I listened to my daughter’s heartbeat. It got me thinking that the heart is incredible. Let’s say you live to be 90 and average 70 beats per minute:
90 years * 365 days * 24 hours * 60 minutes * 70 beats per minute
= 3,311,280,000 heartbeats in a lifetime.
We are a wondrous creation. ❤️
Google Gemini on the Pixel phone is so nice. I got paper mail from my HOA about a meeting and was able to:
- Take a pic of it
- Hold the power button to open Gemini
- Say “add this to my calendar”
All the details, including location, were saved at the correct time on my calendar. Took seconds.
Today I added a weekly microblogs counter to the top of my homepage. Clicking the link takes you to see all of my microblogs. A while ago I changed my homepage to only list long articles. But this made it hard to surface microblogs, especially on mobile. This remedies that. Plus counters are cool!
I’ve been on a weight loss journey and decided it was time for a new professional headshot! I’m fortunate to work with a group of NASA photographers and videographers so I was able to do this for free in our studio!
Trying beans from a new coffee roaster today. Really excited about this place. The owner has personally traveled the world to many of the farms where he sources beans and they only serve pour overs in the shop. I haven’t gotten a pour over there yet, but hope to soon. Troubadour Coffee Roasters
