This time of year I need to yell at myself that it’s only 6:30pm and i can still do shit. Just because the sun set at 6, doesn’t mean I can’t leave my cozy cozy house 😂🧛🏻‍♀️

It’s so funny that my baseline is like… peppy and curious. When there’s uh… disagreement, I just have a flat robotic affect. And I think the contrast is what people find unsettling.

Ai job market talent grab is crazy, bc I see so many people who are like… - 10 years FAANG - 1 year ai lab a - 1 year ai lab b - 1 year ai infra startup c 1 year is the new 2 years 😂

Sometimes I think about how I survived 9ish full time years in a male dominated industry. And all of the psychotic communication (or lack thereof) patterns that entails… Pat myself on the back. 😂

But hey. Money is good. Whats a girl to do. 💅🧘🏻‍♀️ I got bills to pay. Plants to buy. My trainer won’t work for free either! 😂

I feel grateful that my path to seniority hasn’t hardened me. Principally… it’s important to me personally that I’m approachable and collaborative. (This still means solid boundaries.) I see too many people understandably go in the opposite direction.

My thing is… we all do whatever this is for minimum 40hrs/week. The time has to pass regardless. Why… be miserable and make everyone around you miserable 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

Lyft and uber in SF is horrendous. You need to wait like 12min for the car to come. Consistently. It is not like that in seattle at all…

I have a lot of work travel end of year. So ive been booking inconvenient flights that work out to get my ass to my personal training sessions in on Saturdays. This is what prioritization looks like 🫡 Gainz gainz gainz above all else

The cost of a shrinkflated 12oz bag of coffee is diabolical… I ran out between Costco runs and had to go to a normal grocery store for coffee. $20!?!? Insane.

Everlane discontinued the Dream Pant. So I ordered it off eBay 😭 If these ones need to be replaced… next option is finding a seamstress to make it for me. The dupes are all made out of polyester/nylon. The everlane one was mostly cotton.

lol. Looking at my dumb pineapple top I grew from a grocery store pineapple. I don’t remember when I started it. Must be like 2 years ago? A year and a half?

I started making a spreadsheet for the inbody scans I do at my personal trainer place. Andddd since July I am seeing some progress on skeletal muscle mass and percentage body fat! Some recomposition is happening! 💪

I’m too… into work rn. Which means… I need a new giant arts and crafts thing to fixate on. Past phases: crocheting mini stuffed plants, painting on plant pots, puzzles.

Do I need to get into miniature plant clay figures. I can also learn how to crochet coral so that I can put them all together on a giant board to make a weird abstract seascape.

Sometimes towards the end of the week… I feel like a raccoon in my own house. 🦝🗑️ Just like rummaging around everywhere for food scraps 😂

I think if I didn’t live next to a grocery store or able to walk to restaurants within 5min. I would starve to death. DRAMATIC? NOT TOO FAR OFF I THINK. Food delivery? No, on some convoluted internal principal. 😂

I need to write a blog post about ai slop in open source. And how contributors can catch themselves. Like come on guys. Your job as human is to make sure what the ai wrote can be understood. And reducing verbosity is part of the editing process.

I’ll always repeatedly complain about the daily hassle of feeding myself. I really need to just hire meal prep services. Grumble grumble.

Having ai to investigate my questions about high level algorithm problems rather than me needing to painstakingly find a needle in the haystack… is so crazy. Like it augments my curiosity bc I can describe various classes of problems I’m concerned about, and it’ll… just hunt them down if relevant.

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ The duvet cover is not on my comforter bc I forgot and it’s 10pm. NOOOOOO!!!! About to run up some adrenaline wrestling this duvet right before I need to sleep 😭🙃🪦

Making it a goal to list at least 1 item per weekend I wanna declutter for sale on fb marketplace. Need to clear up one of my closets that bothers me 😅

I do feel like… unfortunately ethnicity kinda matters for what dermatologist you go to for aesthetics 😅 Specifically Ive been going to an East Asian doctor in the last year and she does know my face better and not to use techniques meant for Caucasian faces…

Ok but did anyone know about the word “invariant” before Claude / LLMs? 😂 Idk I never said invariant before agent usage.
