I find myself using the Raycast AI features (or AI in general) to perform web searches far more often than I use regular search engines like DDG anymore. I like that I can ask follow up questions on the results to refine what I’m looking for versus scrolling through search results. Anyone else?

I’m looking at a new note taking app called Capacities. It’s an interesting idea. I like the idea of no folders.

I’ve found both the Seiko and Casio subreddits on Reddit. This could quickly become a problem for both my wallet and my wife…

I began reading The Last Coyote by Michael Connelly today. 📚

I’m at the Dreamforce conference in San Francisco this week, averaging eight miles of walking per day. Team members half my age are having a hard time keeping up with me. 💪🏻

There’s still some more work to do on my mnml updates, so they’re going to have to wait until next week.

I put in some good work today for a couple of cool new mnml features. One to make using images a little more flexible and the ability to copy code blocks directly from the web page. I hope to release them by tomorrow.

It’s been quite the week after returning to work. Tons of meetings to get debriefed on all that’s gone down and prepping for the Dreamforce conference next week. I won’t lie, I’m tired, and was yesterday.

A proper post on the week to come soon. And yes, my apex domain is back on Micro.blog again.

It’s hard to believe it, but today is my last day of medical leave. I return to the office on Monday. I’m both excited by it, and kind of dreading it. I’ve grown accustomed to the slower pace. If this is what retirement will be like, I’ll take it.

Finished: The Concrete Blonde by Michael Connelly 📚

Having watched the series on Amazon, I didn’t see the plot of this one coming. Well worth the read.

As a PSA for Micro.blog folk… If you’re not necessarily a fan of the book covers being displayed for your bookshelf related posts, you can hide the image by adding .microblog_book{display:none} to your custom CSS. It’s a great Mb addition, but if you’re minimalist like me, this is how to do it.

I pulled one of my basses out of the closet to noodle with it this morning. It’s been more than a year since I last played and my hands are so out of shape it was like being a novice all over again.

As they say, for every day missed, you lose two days. I’ve got a lot of catching up to do.

Finished reading: The Black Echo by Michael Connelly 📚

A gripping read, but I did figure out the plot before the end of the book…

On to the third installment in the series.

Well… I woke up too early (4 am). It seemed like the right thing to do at the time, but I should’ve just stayed in bed a few more hours. I see a nap in my immediate future.

Today’s my last day of cardiac rehab. I’m fortunate not to have had an episode resulting in heart damage. This helped me bounce back quickly.

My return to work is now two weeks away. I both look forward to and dread it at the same time. I’ve come to enjoy the slow pace of the last three months.
