These plants are invasive but their flowers sure are pretty.
Morning sauna time. 🔥
First time at Marc Hue Patisserie. Won’t be my last.
A pattern I’ve adopted when I’m heavily engaged with Claude Code or Codex is to have an open text file where I’m keeping the “next prompts” that I’m considering. While the agent is working I’m continuing to refine these so we are ready to move to the next feature or task.
Mazie and I went to Project Hail Mary. It was a second watching for me and her first. She isn’t the biggest movie person but loved this one and thought that Rocky was very cute.
Mazie and I had a great dinner at Khâluna. She had the Mango Fish and I had Laksa. We started with the Basil Wings (wow!). Great food and an amazing dining room to boot. Recommended!
Minnesota Technology Council
I had my first official meeting of the Technology Advisory Council a week ago. I was honored to be accepted into this group with an official appointment from Governor Walz. The role of the council is to advise Minnesota IT Services (MNIT). The group is preparing for transition with a new CIO for the State of Minnesota, and a Governor transition as well. This meeting was my first chance to see the breadth of the portfolio MNIT manages.
I’m looking forward to helping in established areas like cloud and data transformation, as well as new areas with AI deployment. I think there could also be some good opportunities to connect the State of Minnesota with the Minnesota Technology Association (MnTech) where I’m currently chair.
