I had hit a throttle now. That’s a “subtle" way to tell me to slow down.

Found out about plain text accounting recently, and set up a journal. It was a bit tricky to understand at first, but I think I am getting better at it... will see if it helps me to analyze my monthly spendings...

Bought some delicious olive oil.

replied to:

What kind of olive oil do you like? I am not big on the peppery stuffs

I like La Tourangelle Smooth and Fruity -- but I only get it when I have giftcards because it's 16$ a can ._.

Been working on an old mastodon hosting project I tried to start a few years ago, with a focus on privacy. This is the first big project I've tried to come back to with the help of coding agents and find it invigorating, and gives me the confidence to actually finish the project. Who knows if it will ever make a dollar, but it sure is fun to watch my ideas come to life.

na, jó, az egyik legyen Windows 11-es, a másik Windows 10-es, csak a tudományos kíváncsiság kedvéért, elvileg az idén még ki tud tartani a Windows 10 komolyabb probléma nélkül

well, one should be Windows 11, the other Windows 10, just for scientific curiosity, in theory Windows 10 can still last this year without any serious problems

Writing. I want to do it, very badly. I just don't want to be bad at it. You have to be bad at it in order to get good at it. But... Catch 22 isn't it?

replied to:

I think reading helps quite a bit, especially writing about what you’ve read, even to yourself, just so you can go through the process of having to explain something that you’re only recently familiar with. There’s something about that process that seems to be helpful, at least to me.

replied to:

Same. The way I consume information influences how I think. Short form content makes my thinking fragmented without a clear structure. I feel that fragmented thinking won't lead to convincing writing. And I'm trying to regain some of that lost control.

replied to:

Very interesting! I think something along those lines might be happening for me too. Another aspect, always cooking in the back of my mind, "if you can't explain it well, don't explain it at all."

replied to:

The fear of being bad at it is the only thing holding you back. I experienced something like that with playing music with others. Perhaps you could learn to lay down your critical brain during the creation process and that good/bad isn't a useful distinction until later when you're editing your work.

replied to:

Yeah, this is pretty much what I can't do. My critical brain has a lot of power. It's very evolved at this point :/

I wonder how much data Apple is transferring today. I used to download from a BBS Apple II software overnight on a 2400 baud modem. What a trip.

If you left your current industry, what would you do for a living?

replied to:

Something with people, bartender maybe, or something with no critical thinking, delivery person, taxi driver and such. Or I go back to being a DJ as I was doing when I was young.

replied to:

love it

replied to:

If things turned out differently, I'd like to be a librarian in a medical history library.

replied to:

Librarian does sound very appealing.

So, I've been using this harness for a week and a half now, and what's interesting to me is that it brings a lot of things that I'd already built for myself in Pi. I built a little email system for agents to communicate, a memory system to do this "continual harness" thing of self-improvement. I know I'll move on to another harness in the future, so I'm trying to treat this like I do laptops now, and think about portability in the things I build or customize.
