By the way, I don't know of any great, easy-to-recommend D2C consumer genome sequencing service. Are there any good ones? (We tried @DanteLabs, but never actually got the sequenced genome back, and never heard back from customer support. I encountered someone else who also had this experience with them. @smart_genome ended up working well, but I think they require going through a clinician.)

I'm lucky enough to have a great doctor and access to excellent Bay Area medical care. I've taken lots of standard screening tests over the years and have tried lots of "health tech" devices and tools. With all this said, by far the most useful preventative medical advice that I've ever received has come from unleashing coding agents on my genome, having them investigate my specific mutations, and having them recommend specific follow-on tests and treatments. Population averages are population averages, but we ourselves are not averages. For example, it turns out that I probably have a 30x(!) higher-than-average predisposition to melanoma. Fortunately, there are both specific supplements that help counteract the particular mutations I have, and of course I can significantly dial up my screening frequency. So, this is very useful to know. I don't know exactly how much the analysis cost, but probably less than $100. Sequencing my genome cost a few hundred dollars. (One often sees papers and articles claiming that models aren't very good at medical reasoning. These analyses are usually based on employing several-year-old models, which is a kind of ludicrous malpractice. It is true that you still have to carefully monitor the agents' reasoning, and they do on occasion jump to conclusions or skip steps, requiring some nudging and re-steering. But, overall, they are almost literally infinitely better for this kind of work than what one can otherwise obtain today.) There are still lots of questions about how this will diffuse and get adopted, but it seems very clear that medical practice is about to improve enormously. Exciting times!

I try to use Safari on MacOS for personal stuff but can't figure out how to even login with my Gmail passkey stored in 1Password. I don't know how people even use computers securely.

Took a chance on CDW instead of Amazon for a Windows laptop. At order time it said it would be delivered today. Crickets. Order page says no Shipping ETA. What are the odds it just randomly arrives today vs a week late from originally estimate?

Love commuting by ferry ⛴️ in Boston. “T-Alerts - Hingham/Hull Ferry: All trips may experience delays of about 15 minutes while Ferries are escorted by an ice breaking tug boat through the harbor.” Way more reliable/relaxing than the red line even with ice in the harbor

@thekitze Loving the Sotto app so far. Great work. Is a wake word and subsequent automation in the cards?

It takes me ~8 unnecessary clicks per credit card receipt to submit in our expense management system. I bet I could remove 6 of those clicks in 4 hours of vibe coding with access to their codebase, and it would collectively save thousands of hours of human time a month

@DoerflerJared @HannaGolfCo Been following the Hanna Golf journey since the beginning. Just pulled the trigger to do my part to help. Best of luck through BFCM!

Black Friday all week at @HannaGolfCo. It has been a wild journey the last 18 months. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. Also had no expectations - had no idea what the response would look like. We've shipped over 850 putters since we started this thing. Small number - absolutely. Big companies do that in a matter of hours. But I am pumped. A ton of learning, a ton of ups and downs. So grateful for the support. It's been amazing to see people buy a putter from a complete stranger on the internet. Here is what we are doing. • Free initials engraving on your putter with the purchase of a putter. Code: BF25 • Free shipping: Code: FREESHIPPING • No code required for the towel - automatically ships with putter. We run one deal a year. And it is this week. A great time to buy a flatstick! We are closing in on 1,000 putters - let's get there before the end of the year! Thank you for the support - it means a lot to me! hannagolf.com

How did people administer Windows MDM before LLMs? Intune/Entra UX is absolutely infuriating. I had thousands of lines of Powershell written to debug issues I was seeing with managing devices and deploying apps

Can't believe Adobe had the nerve to send a $4700 quote for 1 All-Apps and 5 Acrobat Pro. This was after wasting an hour w/ support as self-service subscription management is a nightmare. Do they think people will pay $60 for AI Acrobat add-on or just add-on random Express seats?

@Shwinnabego Exciting to hear about Forge’s work on the campaign! Phil does awesome work. 💜We’ve been thrilled with his efforts on clasp.com over the years!

My agency (forge.coop) did the design for Zohran’s campaign. While I wish I played a part, it was all the masterful work of my partners, Aneesh and Phil. Having worked with these 2 for close to a decade, it’s no surprise they created what many consider (the most?) iconic political branding. I’ve seen Aneesh go deep into the archives of typography and color theory, and Phil spend hours custom-building animations to bring a UI to life. HYPED to see their work getting the credit it deserves.
