I tweaked a bunch of small things in my blog over the past few days. I have much better images rendering and small design tweaks across the board to make everything more cohesive. Claude is so good at this kind of work now.

We ate at My Dear Clara last night and it was excellent. A fun night out.

I am also cooked after 5 days in a row of surfing. A day off is required.

We've had some decent weather over the first few days in Uluwatu.

It's been really nice to lock in on some surfing and try to get better.

I had another decent in-control round last Saturday. I won the B grade competition! It might have had something to do with the massive thunderstorm that came through though and delayed everyone by around half an hour.

What's really positive is that my new clubs are working really well for me. I feel almost the best I ever have with my putting and if my tempo and grip are right with the 3 wood I hit it decently.

This is probably the coolest 404 page I've ever seen.

This internet invitational has been electric so far. Such a good watch.

He had some nice final walks before we went away. We'll miss him though.

Congratulations to my beautiful wife Emma for finishing her masters.

Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards underwent a "successful" arthroscopic procedure on his ailing right knee at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, on Thursday, the team announced.

This was honestly shattering considering how well he was playing.

Last week we rode Puffing Billy with Emma's sister and her kids. It's truly one of the most memorable tourist experiences you can do in Victoria. It was a freezing cold day for October but it was beautiful. Wild that we were literally swimming in the bay 4 days before and we were literally icebergs the day we rode the train.

We neglected Spuddy all day and he'd dug multiple holes when we got home. He was all wet and dirty.

A random thought from last night. It would be really cool to write poetry or songs about different famous dogs I love.

So far it would be Red Dog, Old Hemp, Chewit and Jerry.

I've experimented with some different setups for doing to-dos, but honestly when it comes down to it the best way is Apple Notes.

Simplicity is what is best for me. Sync works well and links open properly.

I didn't realize we updated the uniform this year. It looks fly. Also we're 3-0. So far so good for Melo ball.

This is one of my favorite dog stories ever but is also incredibly sad.

Reviews are also a little mixed for the iPhone Duo. It's clearly a cool gadget that has some nice features but it's a true generation one product. It needs a bit of iteration to get really good.

Seems like reviews are a little mixed for the newest Castlevania game but I'll still pick it up.

I've finally started hitting my 3 wood consistently off the tee.

My swing thought with both the 3 wood and hybrid recently is

coca cola tempo

which basically is coca on the takeaway and cola on the downswing.

I think often I get too quick and this leads to wayward contact.

If my grip is solid and tempo is good it usually leads to decent results.

The 3 wood at the end of the day has a much bigger club head and is easier to make contact with off the tee. I also get about 20-30 metres more on good swing compared to hybrid which really helps on the longer holes.

He's had his balls chopped off but he's had a pretty good life recently.

This took way too long to come out but I'm glad it's finally here.

In the last few weeks I'd been working on a fully vibe coded app for storing my tasks.

It has a React Native mobile app and an Electron mac app. It works okay but the UI is a bit buggy.

What I'm thinking of trying next is creating an MCP to store my tasks and then just interface with Claude directly for the frontend.

This could be a fun little project as I'll learn about how to create my own MCP server.

I think for a task app it could be pretty nice. It obviously has a few downsides compared to a full app (like offline support) but overall it should work okay. It's a good use case for my VPS as well.
