Oh yeah, I'm building with deno. It's early days, but from the docs I've read, and my early experience, Deno seems to sort out many of the devex issues that have blocked me from building.

Got notarization working for the app I'm building. Feels good.

The hardest part of starting a new project has been my muscle memory to write `@loomhq` when I write and import libraries.

I’m enjoying the research feature from Gemini. So far, ever hypothesis I’ve had has been correct.

…I should really check that.

I despise work-from-home more than mandatory office.

Co-working and hybrid on your terms is great.

WFH though, can fuck right off for a blog-post worth of reasons.

Travelling for work: Wrecks me after I've returned home.

The goal for my 30s is to drastically improve my sleep hygiene.

A good engineer checks that their system works as expected _and_ writes tests.

I've seen both, but not often together.

I've been working on a project in the evenings for the last 2 months.

I'm taking a break tonight and working on a patch for opensource.

AI is fast tracking the plotline of idiocracy.

I’m realising I fall in the Luddite camp for AI.

I think I found a bug in pip or pypi.

```
pip index versions haystack-ai --index-url pypi.org/pypi
pip index versions haystack-ai --index-url pypi.org/simple
```

These commands give a different value for the latest version of haystack-ai.

Not sure exactly who to flag that with 🙃

It's been 5 years at Loom, celebrated with a sweet 5-week break in California with the fam.

It's my first day back. I'm feeling refreshed, and now I'm figuring out what's next.
