18 years ago Gary Wolf @agaricus and I launched the Quantified Self (QS) movement, which is still going. Gary finally wrote a book detailing what we have learned so far, and on Thursday, October 8, 5:30 PM at the Book Passage in the Ferry Building San Francisco, he and I will introduce his book and do a classic QS show and tell session.

when Anthropic released their Functional Emotions paper, I gave it to Claude and asked for a song. tonight I asked Opus 5.5 to create a video for it. and it's breathtaking.
