It's good to be back in #Oregon. I'm home now, but earlier we were traveling through Bend and Sisters in #CentralOregon and this remains one of my favorite places anywhere. Look at my happy face! 😃

I'm wearing a beanie and sweatshirt, and I'm grinning broadly as I marvel at the forest of Ponderosa Pines surrounding me. It's a dreamy place full of tree magic.

Huh. I wonder if anything noteworthy happened at the beginning of 2025. Seems like maybe we should reflect on what events might have transpired in early 2025. Something definitely changed between 2021–2024 and 2025–2026. We should try to get to the bottom of it. 🤡

We use Natural Intelligence to build software libraries and applications in production today. Some of them you may be using right now.

There are people who say "nobody authors code by hand any longer." We are here to say that's incorrect. Because we do it. All the time.
