I’ve been announcing new projects on LinkedIn and X, but forgot to update my own blog.

Claude Code is exploding in popularity right now, and people are using it for much more than writing code.

A few weeks ago I released aisessions.dev, a site where you can share your Claude Code / Codex / Gemini CLI sessions with others.

I’ve been switching between Claude Code and Codex a lot lately, and losing context each time was getting annoying.

I’ve been working with AI coding agents a lot lately, and learning a lot in the process.

I had some fun a couple of nights ago creating a silly website that tracks how often Claude Code tells me “You’re absolutely right!”

Being involved in projects with lots of PRs from AI coding agents, I realized that no matter how thoroughly I review the code, I still need a quick way to validate any visual changes.

I realized today it’s been six years since my last conference talk at WordCamp Kathmandu 2019.

I threw an issue from a side project at 6 AI tools today: Claude Code, OpenAI Codex (the CLI version), Factory.ai, Devin, Jules, and All Hands.

At the end of October 2021, I traveled to the island of Andros in Greece for a solo hiking trip.

I’ll miss you so much Mika.

When the phone rang I was in the kitchen, boiling a potful of spaghetti and whistling along with an FM broadcast of the overture to Rossini’s The Thieving Magpie, which has to be the perfect music for cooking pasta.

I stumbled on the Cool Tools review of the book “A Pattern Language” a couple of years ago.

When it comes to food, I’m not a person of habits.

I had fun installing a personal weather station on our roof.

These pictures were taken during a short trip to Kathmandu, Nepal, in March 2019.

I was fortunate to attend WordCamp Kathmandu 2019 last weekend in Nepal.

At WordCamp US 2017, I took the stage to argue that it’s time that WordPress enables translators to add gender-variable translations, and that we can do this in a way compatible with our existing translation ecosystem.

Here’s the short talk I gave about languages written from right-to-left at WordCamp Europe 2017.

King Crimson’s In the Court of the Crimson King is the album that made me fall in love with Prog Rock.

Inspired by Erik Bernhardsson post The half-life of code & the ship of Theseus, here are the results of running Erik’s scripts against the WordPress git repo.

I use a password manager and create very long passwords where possible, including for my Google account.

Today was Jonathan’s first day of Kindergarten.

I recently gave a talk about WP-CLI at WordCamp Israel 2016.

Having recently started using a treadmill desk, I wanted to automate actions on OS X as I switched from the regular desk to the treadmill.

I started running a few months ago, with Runkeeper as my running app.

WordCamp Europe 2015 was a superb event, and I’m happy I was able to present.

Really excited about today’s launch of our new front-end translation tool for WordPress.com.

From The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon:

A couple of days ago, Time Magazine published “How Popular Will Your Name Be in 25 Years?”

A few months ago I started a vegetable garden in our back yard.

A few weeks ago I ordered some WF510 WIFI enabled E27 adapters.

Yesterday I helped someone write their first WordPress core bug report, and then someone else write their first patch to fix that bug.

I knew of course, that there were people protesting that we shouldn’t export our natural gas (I don’t want to hurt their democratic enthusiasm, but they should know that there isn’t any megaphone that can be heard in a cabinet meeting) This is a translated

While going through my Mom’s old toolbox a few weeks ago, I found this: Probably from around 1980, it’s the Patrull drawer safety catch from Ikea.

I’m not sure what to think of this.

Time just flies, and the love keeps growing.

Came across the Ferrari dealership in Tel-Aviv yesterday, and found out they have a 2006 248 F1 car on display.

Rather randomly today, I remembered that I designed some fonts and put them on the web (on a free host, of course).

This week’s Mad Men scene where Don sat down to listen to the Beatles’ “Tomorrow Never Knows” was brilliant.

To watch the opening race of the 2012 F1 season, I had to set up a VPN connection to a server in Italy (for Rai’s live TV feed), and a virtual machine running another VPN connection to the UK (for BBC Radio’s audio commentary).

Great comic on the Oatmeal.

When I started using iPhoto, I didn’t realize my images are all enclosed inside a single package file.
