Sweet Potato: A Practical Bodybuilding Carb
Sweet potato does not build muscle by itself. Its job is more specific: measurable carbohydrate, food volume and micronutrients without turning lunch into a caloric ambush.

The Yes-Man Has Shell Access
A chatbot that agrees with you is annoying. An autonomous agent that agrees, writes the assumption into memory, and executes it is an engineering failure. The fix belongs in the harness.
Let Them Bitch. We Build.
Noise is cheap. With the right people around you, one ordinary day can move a product, a home, and a body forward.
MONSTER 2.0 — The Needle
Daily testosterone approved. Anastrozole reversed. NAD+ discontinued. Growth hormone added. The full V3 protocol: eight compounds, 30.5 injections a week, every unit and reconstitution, my independent audit of their supply math, and every date through December.
I Put 24
A follow-up on the company you keep — this time about life with young people. What the evidence actually says about social integration, caregiving and purpose, and the part of biohacking nobody puts on a dashboard.
Mushrooms, Graded
What the human studies actually say about ergothioneine, UV-generated vitamin D2, beta-glucans, and the five best-known functional mushrooms. Enoki carries twenty times the ergothioneine of cremini.
GitHub Says 2.9 Billion Commits a Month. Its Own Annual Report Says 986 Million a Year.
The number everyone is quoting from GitHub's outage post-mortem is 35× what GitHub's own Octoverse report counts. Both are probably true. What the gap actually reveals — and why Cursor shipping a code host the same week matters more than it looks.
Four Things Working at Once
Legs on Day 2, a gym going into maintenance the week after I catalogued it, two kids who now want to be in the kitchen, and a letter that made the rest of it beside the point.
Claude Academy: 289 Resources, 22 Courses, and a Certificate That Certifies Attendance
Anthropic's learning platform launched today. Every course, with real lesson counts and durations; the difference between the free badge and the $125 proctored exam you probably cannot sit; and the four hours actually worth taking.
Your Agents Eat Your Subscription
Headless agent runs do not come out of a separate budget — on both Claude and Codex they eat the same meter you type against. The real numbers on limits, overage rates, and why a company seat can carry a fraction of a personal plan's usage capacity.
Three Pillars, All Live
Training, kitchen and protocol went in one at a time for months. This week they run together: 23 working sets, 225 g of protein, 30 injections a week, and one date in December that reads all of it.
Seven Foods and a Signed Deal
Two kids, 47 and 37 kilos. One eats everything. The other eats exactly seven foods and zero fruit. The plan for both: our own food pyramid, the four routes that get vegetables and fruit into a child who refuses both, 50 recipes, and the cremas and batidos that do the heavy lifting.

MONSTER 2.0 — The Response
The clinical dossier came back. I cannot share the document itself, it is confidential and full of sensitive data, but everything that matters is here: what I asked for, what the physician approved, what got cut, and the one decision I am going to argue with.
Biohacking
MONSTER 2.0 — The Ask
Pillar three, in proposal form. Nineteen markers back, and this is what I am asking my clinic for: a 2.5x testosterone blast on a flat daily line, retatrutide doubled, four ways to run the growth-hormone axis, every dose and threshold, and the order going out Monday.

The Slash Is Load-Bearing
claude agents and /agents are different products solving opposite problems, and the slash command stopped doing what every tutorial says. Five ways Claude Code runs more than one thing at once, what each really costs, and the one cleanup behaviour that will delete someone's work.

Vitamin Sea Is Real. Just Not for Any of the Reasons on the Tote Bag.
A beach day bundles light, movement, immersion and attention into one unusually easy package. Here is what the evidence supports, and what it does not.

The Marker Changed, Not My Kidneys
One panel flagged my creatinine above range and put my eGFR at 74, which reads as stage 2 kidney disease. The test that settles it came back this morning. Same kidneys, same morning, 47 points apart.

Claude Now Watermarks Your Text. It Proves Less Than You Think.
Every new Claude model now embeds an invisible statistical mark in its text output, worldwide. Here is how it works, why code is the worst case for it, and the asymmetry nobody is going to read carefully enough.

Tech Debt Disguised as Best Practices
The most expensive code your agents write is clean, tested, documented and unnecessary. A working 2026 protocol for finding what to remove, before it hardens into architecture.

MONSTER 2.0 — The Kitchen
2,455 calories, 225 g of protein, seven timed feeds and 25 interchangeable recipes that combine into 5,120 different days. Every gram of it checked by a solver.

Fitness Is Infrastructure
Preparedness gets sold as objects — go-bags, water drums, generators. On Monday morning a magnitude 7.4 earthquake asked my family for none of them. It asked for twenty-nine flights of stairs.

Three of Six
Week one of MONSTER 2.0 closed at three sessions out of six. Day 3 moved 13,432 kg, landing within 377 kg of the leg day and the chest day across completely different muscle groups. And the one set I recorded closest to failure produced the smallest number on the page.

I Pay for WhatsApp. The Ads Came Anyway.
For twenty years, paying was how you stopped paying with attention. That deal is quietly coming apart, and WhatsApp is the politest example yet: my subscription bought themes and app icons, the ads arrived anyway, and in most of the world there is no price that removes them.

Your Agent Doesn't Have a Model Problem
Harness, loop, graph, context engineering. Four terms everyone uses and almost nobody defines. Here is what each one means, which layer your system is actually failing at, and what it takes to get to something that ships work without you typing a prompt every time.
