Did a Perfect Challenge with one of my friend where we try to solve 32 words without any mistake. We have Solve Assist On, which didn't help, but it did something.
We made a bet to another friend where if we manage to reach all 32 words, he has to watch the Rise of Skywalker for the 4th time.
It was really stressful but at the end, we got all of it right without any errors!
Now it's time to watch the movie he really hates lol
This is awesome!!!
Worked on a prototype I'm quite happy with, looks like the dataprep is about to be ready : transformed all my country public services PDF Job offers into structured md then built a website out of it, pure CPU, pure Open Source, 100% Gh actions. Now, I'll focus on enhancing data thanks to Open Source AI, maybe with pure CPU, I'll see
Super productive week
Oh boy! This week was a busy week.
Launch no 1
I launched a gamified app called Grammar King on the Playstore that helps anyone learn the English grammar in a fun way. There are 90 levels in total and more than 500 exercises baked in. Here are some screenshots.

Launch no 2
Ascii based live cam and audio chat that preserves the user image 100% because it is all ascii in motion. Try for yourself here Asciichat
Noticed a significant increase in the number of visitors to my webpage since the launch of asciichat.
realized i don't need to carry a cluttered head at all times. doing small but many tasks one by one. it then ultimately leaves room for more frequent deep work sessions.
Multitasking is mostly context-switching overhead. Expensive and error-prone.
A lot of high-quality work comes from sustained focus. Systems are often designed this way for a reason.
From the outside it can look slower, but it's where things actually compound.
That's a very important realization! Congratulations 🎉
I updated my AI Avatar and added Pose Capture, Positive/Negative Checker, Prompt Checker, and more, and wrote a post about it on DEV.to. Please enjoy! 😊

I'm proud that I discovered a bug in the logs that could cause a crash! I'm a Technical Writer, so I don’t do coding. But I am now working on a Claude skill to improve log messages, and thanks to this skill, I found this bug and fixed it 🎉
began really hitting a sort of stride by writing some blog posts of my own, with my findings and lessons. got a ton of drafts waiting for some polish and editing. but i feel at a point where i'm producing a proper body of work to show.
i realized i had more to say than i thought.
I've built an audio protocol that allows for the distribution of Music along a ledger. There's more too it but there was a web app that kind of wraps this specific feature like a future-shot but it wasn't really doing anything.
Was working out of a coffee shop waiting to pick someone up, so I flipped it a free learning platform covering a bunch of courses in things like reading, writing, math, music, etc.
It uses the same planet map style our Music App uses, and I tried to genuinely crosswalk the lessons across core curriculums. There are sources, fun projects, and no sign in, or ads, or anything. Named it after Sophon from 3BP lol.
My win this week was finally doing something about my open tabs mess.
I had 100+ articles saved at any point. Not reading them, just carrying them around like "I should get to this".
Tried running things through short (~3 min) audio breakdowns before deciding if they're worth it. Most stuff just drops off after that. The few things that stay actually get my attention.
Feels like a much better way to deal with backlog.
