Really great post about AI that mimics my own thoughts on a lot of the talk about vibe coding and similar AI assistance coding topics. One section stood out the most:

Would love a 10 part documentary series covering the gas station food industry. This sausage thing is crazy!

Nice relaxing night building some fun F1 Lego mini sets before my day of traveling tomorrow!

Really great read from Miles Klee at Rolling Stone about the downfalls of AI chat services and mental health. Hoping that eventually all of this AI stuff settles down into something with more benefits than negatives. www.rollingstone.com/culture/c…
This upcoming week’s video covers one of my favorite OS X features, Dashboard!
