I've Been Vibe Coding

I've been a little quiet lately as I've been busy vibe coding, and I'm working on a guide to share with you.

The Dopamine Balance Check: Is Dopamine wrecking Your Focus, Energy & Creativity?

I also built an automation that turns an email into a text message - reminding me to practice spanish. Its much harder to ignore a text.

Before I tell you mine, we need to go back a few months. I am ashamed to say I recorded a podcast 6 months ago, and I...

Its been a while but Im back because now really feels like an inflexion point for AI. AI Psychosis There are two types of psychosis. The clinical kind — where you lose contact with reality. And the kind I'm watching spread through the creative industry right now. I'm talking about the guy who can't sleep because his AI agent isn't running tasks overnight. The freelancer who won't take a lunch break because that's tokens left on the table. The developper refreshing his usage dashboard like...
