New season of Slow Horses! What a nice surprise.
Those iPhone cases that make your phone look like a book are about to come back in a big way.
The imposter syndrome has been intensifying since rejoining my original team at work. It’s not just one thing but several small things that compound to make me feel like I don’t know what I’m doing.
I haven’t watched K-Pop Demon Hunters, but once a day one of those songs gets stuck in my head.
Low power mode on an iPhone 16 Pro running iOS 26 is embarrassingly hitchy. I’ve found most everything else with iOS 26 is fine, but I’ve stopped using low power mode because of how unpleasant the experience is.
Watched a disappointing loss to the Chargers and what does YouTube immediately recommend I watch?.. Loser by Tame Impala. #chiefs #nfl #tameimpala
I kinda like that ChatGPT simplified the model picker. I could never remember which model was best suited for the task I was giving it. So now, supposedly, it should route the request to the most appropriate model without me having to think about it. This is how a consumer product should work.
Be skeptical of claims like “AI will replace X in Y years” when the author has a major stake in AI succeeding.
Open the door, get on the floor. Everybody…
I’ve been using Codex with one of my side projects and while it’s amazing how it can go off to implement changes, I find very little joy in the process. I enjoy reasoning and writing code. This is instead describing the end state and reviewing code. Is this closer to how senior devs work?
Just caught up with a days worth of social media posts (~250 posts). In summary: we are cooked.
Why are we posting Severance spoilers on a Thursday night?
John Gruber writing about Fox’s new scorebug that debuted during Super Bowl LIX:
Imagine the outcry if Fox had broadcast yesterday’s Super Bowl without any scorebug at all — you know, for those who would rather have their screen clear of graphics.
As a Chiefs fan, that would’ve been fine with me.
MURPH!!! THE DUST IS YOUR DADDY!!!
Seeing Interstellar in IMAX at 9:45pm. Wondering if I’ll make it to the end.
There are lies, damned lies, and FedEx estimated delivery times.
The #Chiefs 🏈 WR group wearing custom t-shirts to support Pacheco & Kelce remind me of when our marching band section would take white t-shirts and black sharpie to make shirts to wear during practice to support bandmates.
Put it on a shirt. It’s an effective way to show love.
I released a new app on Tuesday as part of RevenueCat’s Ship-A-Ton. It’s called Smart Choices and you can download it here: apps.apple.com/us/app/sm…
I wrote about the inspiration here: jakeg.micro.blog/2024/08/2…

Finished reading: The Return of the King by J. R. R. Tolkien 📚
Started this one off on audiobook then switched to physical near the end. I wish I had just stuck with physical the whole way through. I didn’t retain much of what happened at the beginning 🫤
I don’t think I’ll ever get over the fact that we’ll never get Fez 2.
Went to a minor league soccer game last night. Watching Olympic soccer right now. Going to watch little league soccer this afternoon.
I don’t think one sets out to be a soccer dad. I think it’s just something that happens to you.

Jumped in the pool with the phone in my pocket. Let’s see just how waterproof these things are. 😬
Threads is already a year old? Wtf.
