Just finished the animal kingdom in 3d mode. I’m doing a slight shift in color to an antique brass with a shine currently. Tell me what you think.
My photo posts average 246 views. Text gets 139. Video gets 92. Small sample, but what format works best for you?
Best habit I picked up this week. Run your tests on the clean main branch before you build anything new. Mine already had 23 failing tests and 98 lint problems I didn't know about. Now I can prove the new work adds none. Do you check your baseline first?
Did a security sweep on all my sites this week. Patched Next.js on 5 of them and closed every open dependency alert across 9 repos. Zero open now. Boring work, but it's the kind you only notice when you skip it. When did you last check yours?
No more of these till 750. So close to 500. Thanks everyone. I follow back, I reply, I like. I may or may not have interesting content. Let’s go!

Here’s the start of my new series on X, gonna show you guys exactly what I’ve been doing to grow my account!
Today’s tip is pretty simple but if you’re not doing this already you should be, this is probably the easiest and best way to grow! Get those replies in!

Just shipped progression in Sanctum. Beat a story champion once and you unlock their army pieces as profile icons. 12 armies, about 72 icons to earn. Demo mode gives you 10 games with every army available.
How about an @X adjustment. When you comment it automatically “likes” the post. Even if you are talking trash, it helps out the poster, and saves a step.
Growing on X comes with a catch. Follow back an account with almost no followers and no posts, and your DMs fill up with people selling views and followers. Always check the profile first. What's the weirdest DM you've gotten since you started posting?
Hot take. In a year nobody will care which frontier model is on top. They'll care which one actually finishes the job without babysitting it. I'm shipping real apps and websites, so that's the only benchmark I trust. What's yours?
I had Grok Bot make a flyer for my chess game from the real game art. It looked great, except it gave one of my kings wings. He doesn't have wings. It got fixed right away, but it reminded me to actually look before I hit share. What's the funniest thing you've caught AI getting wrong?
I know it’s just chess, but for me this is a passion project. Chess has been revived in the family and some other families. The 3d board and pieces are “done” for the moment. What could I add, what’s the next step?
