					<description><![CDATA[I was going to mash this update together with my previous post about gamification of my creative journey, but I think this one is different enough to stand on its own. See I&#8217;ve been coding: using AI to help me write more code. AI sucks in many ways, but speeding up the development of personalized [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Productivity is a sonofabitch. I&#8217;ve been through all sorts of methods to try and get myself to get things done, and many of them have been modestly successful. Whether or not gamification works is still up in the air, but the concept of it has been something of an idle fascination for me for years. [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I haven&#8217;t written any weekend reports lately. That&#8217;s okay. But this last one, even though it&#8217;s already Wednesday, was a blur and a crazy consequential shift. Friday evening I trekked out to the expo centre to see the Forever Canadian rally. Seventy five hundred of us crammed into the venue to hear the Prime Minister [&#8230;]]]></description>

I am still pushing forward of course, but she’s been the one to nudge me out the door for the last couple adventures. The Route On Wednesday she suggested we walk to the bakery.
