While responding to a prompt output, I rewrote my reply from "I have the habit of..." to "I have the history of..."
Both are data points. I can't change history but I can change my habits
Small word change but it got me thinking.
When I owned my own website, I needed to make it comfortable my target audience... ME.
And when I'm comfortable with it, I will then want to improve it to be able to give my visitors and readers (you) a better experience.

Posting on social media was starting to feel like living inside a shopping mall.
Always on display, performing for algorithms instead of self-expression & writing for people.
So, I revived my own website.

I understand the need to perform on social media, I really do.
... But doing that for too long potentially loses that real connection.

@georgeiswrite Haha, there's a good reason for that.
Thanks for being so encouraging. What was the notification you saw? Still got the screenshot?

Imagine spending weeks building features on your website, only to realize I was using productive work to avoid what actually mattered. High-functioning avoidance is still avoidance.
@patrickwieland Oddly enough, you were raging less than usual even though the losses were more than usual. Thanks for sharing this. I set a hard 1% daily loss and I hit it QUICK on this chopping day.
A.I. has negatively affected my appreciation of visuals now. Instead of appreciating the artwork or photo, I caught myself spending time trying to find the bugs to identify that it's a generated image.
It has been a WHILE since I taught a live class --- feeling a little rusty but relying on preparation + interacting with the comments has not failed me yet.
#AI is a drug. It feels like power - answers on demand, ideas without effort, a 1,000 IQ mind at your fingertips. Satisfying the mind with illusions of progress. In time, you won’t dream, think, or create - you consume what's been generated, while the machine dreams for you.
