Been having fun testing some different shorts content and formats lately This latest one on Simulation Theory seems to have hit, never had a post get traction this quick

Is this a signal that we are living in a simulation?

Having kids is the best screen time blocker

I listened to this MFM pod with @Rizstanford on my way to work yesterday and loved it. I had always heard of Simulation Theory in passing, but had never explored it beyond the surface. I then went on to the rest of my day, but could not help myself from continuing to ponder the theory. I was sitting in an all day training at work with some fairly dry material, so I thought to myself, during this training I will keep my eyes open and see if I can observe any indications of the Simulation Theory, any glitches in the matrix, so to speak. About two hours later, the discussion during the training drifted to AI and AI agents, then out of the blue, the training instructor asked the class, "Has anyone ever heard of the Simulation Theory?" My heart skipped a beat and I smiled wide. Maybe this was merely coincidence or a moment of synchronicity. Or maybe it was the Simulation at play 🤔

Some thoughts on fatherhood, aliveness and middle of the night ER visits

My wife has been absolutely dialing her homemade Seolleongtang (설렁탕) 😋🇰🇷

Starting to crack the UGC code

Had to take my 10-month-old daughter to the ER at 3 AM last night It’s amazing how every nagging worry, thought and wish goes out the window when your child falls ill It snaps you our of your head and instantly puts into perspective what’s truly important in life She is totally fine and is at home resting and recovering now, thank you God 🙏

Had fun working with Opus 5.5 this week on some website enhancements

Slow and steady

I’m building Pokémon for sobriety

I dropped off and and picked up my son from preschool for the first time today One of the best moments of my life He was beaming ear to ear, so happy to have me bring him there, and so excited to be among friends and teachers When I arrived to pick him up, he was playing hide and seek with several other adorable rascals in the play yard Then when we got home, he had a huge temper tantrum, threw his shoes at us, and also threw up his lunch on the floor Life of a toddler dad

I wonder what the dude behind this account looks like 😂

Thinking about a new icon 🤔
