The deprecated Rijksmuseum API that Museum Shuffle used is very different from its replacement. I’m 100% certain that it would have taken me weeks to adapt to it in my little free time I’d devote to it. I did it in a few hours with Claude Code. 🤯

Being an Upgrade listener for 11 years+, I can't express how honored I feel right now. Mango Baby was made from my heart when I was a new parent. And reading the overwhelmingly positive messages from my users, including Myke(!), has kept me going with this app. Thank you. ❤️

In 6 weeks of Claude Code, I got through a year or two of @puzzmo.com tech debt Switched React Native -> React, Redwood -> In-House, Jest -> Vitest, animations to Motion, Design System -> Base UI, Node upgrades, Vite upgrades, made Monorepos All on the side, solo blog.puzzmo.com/posts/2025/0...

mangoumbrella.comHiking Maui’s Hidden Bamboo Forest# Summary We accidentally discovered this hidden hike in 2015 while we were heading back from Hana. We stopped at a random spot to take some pictures. On the opposite side of the road, we noticed some hikers just emerging from what seemed like nowhere: ![The Hidden Entrance to the Bamboo Forest](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/TbiIv3PMOSAs49BudOGMq9a1kx1W8GOeo04R0n112I_W9WcDw1Huc0QTOHNc0GkQKpU4s4RU-M_PyYEGGQbvV9TTDuSZWe_f=s1200) Intrigued, we investigated and discovered a narrow trail winding into the bamboo forest. Unfortunately, it was already late that day after our trip to Hana, so we didn't venture very far. When we returned in 2017, we made sure to explore this trail again. It turned out to be the best hike we experienced in Maui. Fast forward to a few weeks ago when we brought our 6yo on the Road to Hana, we simply had to stop there. The experience was even more magical with the swollen river after the recent rainfall. # Photos ![Photos from Hiking Maui’s Hidden Bamboo Forest](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/dR92HHv-jayXELj7-2R_xQfvrp5WKjA-7dalju-yEJdpmYvuLHwAWCrv23bKSIoMx3p-LHSZzltwIDj5jbtQJLfYz6j2T1UY0A=s1200) ![Photos from Hiking Maui’s Hidden Bamboo Forest](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/huOybEAEGS6YANHtu8jcUeXZdvJbKluBpD6TCLy83kq0FxtTiITPxVuXnxQ0_nQxPS_5hJYr4xLd-et-VYMiHd3b8IF_HEQx=s1200) ![Photos from Hiking Maui’s Hidden Bamboo Forest](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/P9fHAfK5cKci3N8VuQnv8RD8psHb-TYfdSS5ceyJx-Q7NCCkLyICAiyjbqHITE4zndF5s9ncxVvTctHyCvfUm8SeY5B_wTjrrg=s1200) Photos from Hiking Maui’s Hidden Bamboo Forest # Numbers Time: 2025-04-19, 2.8 hours.
