I work mostly from home, so no commute. I do pay for 2 days/wk at the co-working space either 7 or 30mi away (so 15-35min). I have an electric scooter that goes 65mph and an incredible view on my commute (see attached from Tuesday's drive), so I enjoy it and the chance to be social with the people at the cowork space.

How do you like your carbon steel pans? I got one and despite following all the seasoning instructions it never releases food easily so I don't use it very often.

I've had mine for almost 15 yr, same as you, still works like it's new. I also have a Benchmade knife that I carry all the time that's unmarred by time.

We got a Baby Bjorn carrier 2nd hand, and it'll certainly go to another family, and another, and another...

This is pretty misleading due to its brevity, an attacker on the same network can determine what website you're going to but not the content being exchanged. A VPN moves the threat of having your browsing destination determined to the VPN provider from the local network.

That said, modern WiFi encryption does prevent other devices on the network from eavesdropping, so the attacker would have to employ a more involved attack (e.g. ARP spoofing) in order to even see the destinations.

It runs well enough in Windows Subsystem for Android!

I'm surprised not to see https://cryptpad.fr/ here, a FOSS, self-hostable E2EE web based office suite. Not as feature rich as GDocs but offers the basics in a more secure manner.

LLMs can be super useful if there is an authoritative source of truth. I wrote a Langchain app that takes my Python code, asks ChatGPT to optimize it then uses symbolic analysis to perform equivalency checking. I get to write and have clear simple python code, and then I offload optimization to a bot.

I'm the same way, I have only a few apps allowed to push to my Garmin, and it's helpful to be able to archive or delete a useless email or know there's something worth taking my phone out for. I find myself leaving my phone in other parts of the house is more focus-friendly since I'm not getting distracted while able to keep my eyes out for work-related items.
