Target is basically nothing but celebrity brands now. Go to the men’s grooming aisle and normal soaps and shampoos are relegated to a couple of low shelves, taking up 1/10 of aisle space. The Rock’s shampoo brand has a full half aisle though. He’s bald.

New Siri is good, but would make it great is if it could do what I tell it to using Apple’s own tools. I’d like to describe a focus modes and have it create it for me.

I’ve had an idea for a game for the Playdate for a while. I started it tonight. I’m hoping I can make some real progress on it while I’m on vacation next week.

A pixelated helicopter hovers between two buildings with trees under a sun and clouds, accompanied by the title CRANKLIFTER. A game in development for the playdate.

Another one built. My YouTube subscriptions the way I want to see them.

A video streaming platform interface displaying sports highlights, a person's reaction video titled Not interested, and a series of reaction thumbnails.

I built one completely new website this weekend, Sports on TV Now, and redesigned three other sites, moving two of them off WordPress. Safe to say it was a productive weekend.

This isn’t the sports schedule website I’m building, but I also updated my Instant Fail sound board with keyboard shortcuts and some color. This is a dumb site I made to use with colleagues at work back in the day.

There was an annoying bug with a new site I was working on. Claude could not figure it out the cause. Years of software support allowed me to pinpoint it but I was out of tokens to have Claude come up with a fix. I had to fix it myself. Good old .htacess to the rescue. Who needs tokens?

Looking forward to testing this out tonight for the St. Louis City SC match.

A pixelated soccer video game screen shows a match between SKC and STL with SKC leading 1-0 at Energizer Park, accompanied by a running text display of match updates.

Added a combined My Teams schedule for your favorites.

The screenshot shows a sports event schedule highlighting a baseball game between the St. Louis Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds, and a soccer match between St. Louis City SC and Colorado Rapids.
