Transcript: I just want to reflect on a really nice morning. You know, got up a bit late because I couldn't fall asleep and had dreams of being in the Vision Pro, which is very odd. But went and played disc golf with Ryan and got a bit of writing done this morning. And that was awesome. And I met Keith and we played disc golf together with Ryan. And then we went in slackline for a bit and I biked to the disc golf course. So that was nice. And biked home. I went to Chris Ono Grinds for lunch. Which is a new place that I've never been before. Got the volcano chicken and it was very mediocre. I would not get that again. I don't know about the rest of the place, but I did not enjoy that dish. Super way, way, way, way, way, way too sweet. It was like eating sugar. But yeah, I mean, just getting to like slow down and hang out with someone. The expectation is just like show up and like have a good time. And there's nothing else like, God damn, how good that feels, you know, just to be able to be like real with a person and there's nothing crazy going on. There's no drama. It's just like, let's have a good time. So I really appreciated going and slacklining and disc golfing with Ryan. And I'm stoked to do it again next, next Tuesday. So yeah, honestly, at this point, I mean, I, I want to go out to Culp Valley, but I'm also like, kind of want to get things done. And you know, I have a list of things that I want to get done and I also need to make food for myself. Um, so we'll see, we'll see if I end up making out to Culp for sure. I'm going to Mission Gorge. So I don't know. Maybe I, maybe I don't go to Culp this weekend. Maybe that's okay. Um, there there's going to be time. So, and maybe the time is in the middle of the week sometime. I don't know. But what I do know is like, I do really want to, uh, have some focus and hone in on like what needs to be done and like, not, not faffing about as I have, like needing, needing that like point of like, this is where I'm getting by the end of the week instead of kind of just like small projects I can do in a day. I need that bigger focus coming back in. So either I need to do writing to figure that out or putting the whole thing together and collapsing it or I don't know, something like this because yeah, I don't know at the moment it's just a bit too much or just collapsing all these small pieces and like if that's what it is, that's what it is. Like, I'm just gonna work on a small piece. Every day. Um, so yeah, that's kind of how I'm going so far. And yeah. Thank you.
I had a productive call with Dave and discussed some writing tasks. I did some writing and have an open day tomorrow. I plan to hang out with Jordan, complete some tasks, and enjoy the day. I also biked to a nearby park and spent some time on a slack line, feeling a big flow state.

This past week has been incredibly hectic for me, with hardly any time to rest or catch my breath. Despite the chaos, I'm excited about all that I've been doing. My week has been packed with family visits, including a nice Easter celebration at my grandparents' place and having one of my grandfathers over at our house. I got to enjoy some outdoor activities as well, like stand-up paddleboarding at Lower Lake Clementine and going on a snowy hike at Mount Laguna with friends—a rare sight for April. Amid these adventures, there were cozy gatherings, like a dinner I hosted with friends where I made a mushroom stew I was particularly proud of, and another where we celebrated Jordan's birthday at a place called Raised by Wolves. Even with all the socializing and outdoor exploits, I still managed to find time for personal activities, like slacklining and planning workouts. Looking ahead, I have plans to meet up with Kristen before dropping her off at the airport and am anticipating the launch of something by the end of the week. Despite the excitement of these busy days, part of me longs for relaxation, though I'm not quite sure what that will entail yet. Reflections and the need to clear my mind are also on the horizon as I endeavor to keep moving forward every day.
I had an energetic afternoon which started with a bike ride to an unnamed café near the university for espresso. Spending time mostly outdoors, I worked with two notebooks and my iPad, realizing that the lack of a traditional computer and a change of environment encouraged different styles of thinking. This alternative thinking helped me make progress towards creating something akin to a pitch deck. Afterward, I went for another bike ride to channel my excess energy and am now planning my weekend, focusing on preparing for the upcoming week rather than working intensively.

Overall, it was a good and relaxed start to the morning with contemplation as the primary agenda for the day.

I fulfilled my 2024 goal of deepening relationships tonight. I rode my bike looking for puddles to splash in after the rain, but found none. Instead, I had a rewarding conversation with Claire and Sam at Ichiban. This interaction was very satisfying.

The speaker did not complete their weekly review, which usually provides clarity and insights for the upcoming week. Despite this, they have many projects, personal life commitments, and community efforts to attend to, not to mention taxes. They plan to set week intentions using voice instead of writing, including the exploration of websites for the Diagram Website Explorers Club and developing a Canvas element-based editor for Daily Jam. The technical aspects of this project involve real-time data updates, efficient pixel manipulation, and secure user authentication through tokenization. A function is set to run every five seconds to update the canvas with the latest pixel data, ensuring all viewers see a consistent image while minimizing performance impacts. Other tasks include preparing tax paperwork, organizing Boulder events for systems and AI, and sketching ideas for a project called "co-net." The intention is to spend more time outdoors in the nice weather and to schedule the next "Site Craft Hang," while thinking about potential content for the "Explorers Club" website. Overall, it's a productive Monday morning with good weather contributing to a positive start to the week.

The speaker is reflecting on their experience with making audio burrito posts, noting that it often requires multiple attempts to get into the correct mindset—similar to drafting written posts. They're grappling with the challenge of monologuing without a clear understanding of the audience, as they are aware that at least John and CJ will hear it, but uncertainty about the wider audience affects their ability to communicate effectively. This creates a 'contextual membrane shakiness' as the speaker finds the lack of audience boundaries difficult to navigate, which they recognize may vary among different people. The speaker concludes by deciding to end the current note and start a new one.
