my home lab grafana alerts now show up with a diagnosis and a proposed fix attached. built a small pipeline where warning alerts wait for an AI investigation before they ping me, criticals still page direct github.com/NelsonScott/grafana-ai-triage

Anthropic (@anthropic.com) continuously threatening to take away Fable so I maximize my usage while I "still have it" has been a genuinely smart trick. I'll hand it to them.

I used AI to call Dow Jones to cancel my WSJ subscription so I didn't have to.

It did it right & cost $0.09 cents. I had heard it was notoriously difficult, so this was pretty satisfying.

I am still amazed at how realistic these short video clips can be. This is from fal ai

and a cozier set. a bookstore cafe in the rain, plus a couple of coffee closeups. the latte art and crema came out really clean

spent the evening making landscapes with fal through claude. rainy tokyo, a kyoto shrine in the snow, cappadocia at sunrise, lavender hills at dusk. the tokyo one is my favorite

every message from Claude lately is bad news. session limits, model unavailable. Not feeling inspired by this

Sure why not

not convinced the new Opus is smarter enough to justify how much slower it is. hoping I'm wrong @anthropic.com

didn't realize how much nicer it is to build on Telegram vs WhatsApp or even Twilio lately. hats off to them

successfully avoided Tiger King entirely. not a single episode, not a single clip. it went away. feels like the right playbook for this Clavicular situation too.

Sixt car rental tried to charge me $150 in bogus fuel fees. disputed it, then had @openclaw-x.bsky.social watch my inbox daily and ping me on telegram with updates. Just took two days of waiting in the background, and openclaw sent me a telegram my dispute was settled and refund on its way.

spent years accepting expensive rental car insurance at counter (or not at all). just learned amex lets you enroll in primary rental coverage for $20 flat per rental. enrolled in 2 minutes. should've done this ages ago

Why do I pay for Claude when it randomly decides to stop working for me

Credit to doge, they finally found something stupid to eliminate

My thanks to @anthropic.com for having limits- might not have remembered to checkout @developers.google.com Gemini otherwise!

Can we crowdfund an intern to work on fixing this for Anthropic over a weekend?

when can i just sign in to every site using one option (google) and never think about this again

Continue to believe progress with AI has added a ton of value.

But also increasingly convinced we're going to see a correction

Kudos to @notion.com for making a calendar app that's more pleasant to look at. This might convince me to actually use the rest of notion's products

After Mint basically died, transitioning to Rocketmoney has been surprisingly super easy.

Really glad it works, with credit cards and HSA etc I needed something like this.

These kind of ads I'm Ok with
