Transcript: Before going to sleep, just going through the day, it was a strange one today. It was a weird getting back on the feet, but I guess that is a standard Monday thing, especially when you roll into the weekend of work as well. But I felt the energy coming back this evening, which is interesting. Noticed it last evening too, so maybe this is the time to do some work as well. And not worry about relaxing a bit in the middle of the day to basically repower up for the evening or something. And maybe it was food. Maybe it was food. So today was exploring the Intention website. And a lot of it was just kind of doing background thinking of like, what is the best way to approach this? And also being frustrated with authentication, generally speaking. It's just a bodge right now, unfortunately. And maybe OAuth is the way. Maybe OAuth actually works here quite well, I'm not sure. So yeah, at least the basics are up. It's just like really, it's really like baby's first web app, effectively. And at that, I am pretty unhappy with it. I initially was doing React server-side rendering, and then we moved it, I moved it all to client back in the pages router. And man, the app router is better, in my opinion. There are annoyances to it, but the app router is significantly better in terms of performance. And just like how the website feels to me. So I understand why it exists. And a lot of it was actually fighting with Next.js, unfortunately, too, which just left a bad taste in my mouth of like, this has gotten so complicated. Like there's gotta be a simpler web framework to work with that just like is React, client components, server components, and it flows together nicely without like gobs. Gobs and gobs of abstraction. So yeah, maybe finding myself towards the end of wanting to use Next.js. So we'll see. Just found the development experience a bit more frustrating than I expected. So yeah, it's mostly just like fighting with tools today, which is always like an annoying place to be when you're trying to just get something done and it's kind of the whole point of this is to stop fighting with tools. Yeah, trying to think of some new things and maybe, yeah, how to keep it more server-side rendered is another thing in the future. Just like querying is one thing, but like, yeah, I don't know. Maybe I need to look into streaming components and React server components, just directly how they are supposed to work and see what can be done. But yeah, that's that.
Yesterday was a pretty good and productive day for me. In the morning, I was at work, really diving deep into what's possible with the backend, especially focusing on modal and non-real-time transcriptions—successfully managing to make them work. I'm considering extending that setup to my local machine to ensure it optimally selects the best backend for serving content. I also thought about exploring Olama for similar functionalities but realized I might need to handle streaming code specifically. There's a part of me thinking about delving into `whisper.cpp` because I believe streaming support is achievable without excessive effort, though it might require some C++ handling. Enhancing Python and node bindings, especially making GGML usable like a tensor library in Python, is another aspect I’m looking into. Aside from work, I managed to meditate for 15 minutes, skipped breakfast but enjoyed beans and rice for lunch, and had Kyle, Claire, Kyle's dad, and Miri over for lunch and later for games, playing the crew, which was quite enjoyable. Claire brought dessert, and I made some pasta and chicken for dinner. My fascination with O1 or Open Interpreter continues, and I'm eager to explore more about it. For today, I'm considering going surfing if the situation allows, based on what I manage to accomplish in the morning and my energy levels through the day. I'm planning to start my day with meditation—trying it before my coffee—to see how that feels and take the day from there.
Feeling exhausted but content, the speaker reflects on their constant work and aspirations to improve processes, like making John's burrito preparation faster. They acknowledge that their current project may have flaws, but see potential for it to be a dynamic back-end platform with multiple uses. The speaker expresses a desire to create something novel and valuable, while also fostering a space for both public and private sharing. Amidst these professional goals, they cherish personal connections, such as a satisfying morning of surfing with friends.
I finished making breakfast tacos and have a day planned with reading, meditation, and possibly writing. My focus for the day is improving the main burrito website to make it interactive and pondering the challenge of making it easily deployable for others without the pain of maintaining a separate instance. I'm contemplating whether to maintain the existing system or create a new one, maybe using Docker to bundle the components. The decision is complicated due to the unique architecture of building decentralized applications and requires further thought.

Today was an incredibly energetic and successful day for me. I maintained high energy levels throughout, even though I experienced a slight dip in the afternoon. The highlight was bringing the Mac mini network to life, which now runs a real machine learning model on commodity hardware capable of serving a production-grade API. This milestone makes me extremely excited and marks a significant achievement in the stability and capability of our API. Additionally, I cooked a delicious spinach, garlic, and butter pasta for lunch, with plenty left over for future meals. I also have enough chicken and couscous for another meal, ensuring a tasty week ahead. In the evening, I enjoyed outdoor activities, including riding my bike and slacklining with my friend Ryan in the park. Following this, I had a productive call with Dave and concluded my day with a simple dinner. As the day comes to an end, I plan to meditate and sort out my climbing gear, though I might skip showering since I'll be surfing tomorrow. A bit of kitchen cleanup is also on my to-do list, but overall, I feel immensely satisfied with how the day unfolded. Now, it's time to wind down, embrace the feeling of tiredness, and allow myself to take a much-deserved break.

Today has been a challenging day, with the speaker feeling overwhelmed by logistical tasks like taxes and job inquiries. They had a productive conversation with Danny but were left feeling aware of the amount of work ahead. They are also pondering ways to make money and considering the potential of experimenting with data and language models. The speaker is interested in the concept of "brain twin" and is curious about using it in a group setting with others, possibly collaborating with someone named John.
