They are grateful for the support received and look forward to future plans. Finally, they express a desire to set reminders for future tasks.

Transcript: Good day so far. Woke up a bit later than I expected to today. I had a really, really hard time falling asleep last night for whatever reason. I really would love to reset my sleep schedule. Getting up as late as I did today just doesn't feel very good. I think it's thrown really my whole day off in some way. Like things just feel like a bit weird. But regardless, had a nice morning. I got the install endpoint working on Burrito, which is quite nice. I'm pretty excited about it, generally speaking. I certainly want to install a few things and make that process easy, ideally. I think that one's pretty simple. Probably just a form on a web page with hopefully good defaults as well as I don't know, I guess I'll probably just fill out some JSON so we can use that in a prompt template. And I think that will do a pretty good trick, at least for this beginning phase of just labeling the fuck out of data. And kind of hoping for the best there. There is the bigger question of ... More complex queries and how to handle those and cache those effectively. It's kind of like a listener on something plus using the existing data to augment and really, I guess, in some sense, add a new row. So this is something I need to think about more. But regardless... Install got done. At least the first version. And I went over to Jordan's house and that was nice. It's always nice going to Jordan's house. And we talked through, kind of updated him on a lot of stuff going on with Burrito as well as getting his help with design, which I'm extremely grateful for. And even just talking through the problem because I'm learning it's not that easy to articulate exactly what it is. Especially coming up from developer land into regular user land, effectively. So that is an interesting problem. Something to definitely work on more and more. Kind of made me reconsider approach a bit. But I think the approach is still fairly solid for the time being. It's hard to say exactly, but I think it's solid. And also got to show Jordan the Vision Pro, which is pretty cool. And he was pretty stoked. And we ended up getting lunch together at Lucha Libre down the street from his place. And he bought my lunch, which I'm also extremely grateful and appreciative for. And our plan is to do dinner next week. So... That is great. And... Yeah, I'm stoked. I would really, really like to get that kind of trigger that I just said in as well to have a reminder for the beginning of next week. Or even in the next couple days to make that happen. That would be ideal. Can do that programmatically. It would be really great if it just understood. But anyhow... That's going to be... It's going to be like agents and tools. So we might have to start exploring that soon of being able to give it tools. Peace.

Additionally, I spent quality time with friends, preparing and enjoying meals together, which was a warming end to the day.

Productive Day and Tomorrow's Plans

Today was genuinely good. I enjoyed a brief outing, had a catching-up call with Katie, and worked on getting an app ready for Darren, which I'm hopeful he'll find useful. It's sparked a desire in me to develop a more robust infrastructure, something I see as entirely feasible. Planning for tomorrow, I want to integrate a design from Jordan into my work and, if possible, continue enhancing the app for Darren, focusing on stronger infrastructure and deploying it to a stable, cost-effective, or free hosting service, potentially something like serverless Postgres. Dinner was light, just almonds and some couscous, not quite a meal. After a productive day, I'm feeling pretty exhausted and foresee just watching a YouTube video before bed. I'm looking forward to driving up for coffee tomorrow morning, though I need to check my car's charge for the trip to Encinitas and also plan to do some grocery shopping. I aim to start the day early, enjoy an espresso, buy some beans, perhaps a pastry, and then see where the day takes me. I'm debating between taking my laptop and opting to journal instead, leaning towards the latter to give myself a chance to reflect and process my thoughts. So, that's the roundup of today and the look-ahead for tomorrow.

A Productive Day

Today was quite eventful for me. It started off with a peaceful morning where I enjoyed coffee and eggs; I love waking up naturally. My work focused on making various installations easier to manage in a private version of Burrito, aiming for smoother access and queries - a slow but steady process. Apart from work, I engaged in several conversations and calls throughout the day. My first discussion was with Nick, pondering over the potential of starting a company related to a hotel concept we thought of. It's an idea I need to dwell on more tonight. Lunch was home-cooked ramen, a comforting choice. Catching up with John over a call was refreshing; we discussed meeting in person soon. Then there was the OKPC call, where financial updates were a key topic. My day ended on a high note with an excellent climbing session with Patrick. It's been a productive and fulfilling day.
