More I keep looking at our Central Europe trip from 2 years ago more I feel like Budapest is criminally underrated. It is easily one of the grandest and stunningly beautiful city out there but it never gets spoken in same vein as other major cities. To think it was a city I didn’t even want to visit.

And it’s only 12. Super Sunday in progress.
James Walkinshaw( our second choice) won with nearly 60% of the votes. Irene Shin (our choice) came second at 15%. It was always going to be hard to beat James considering he was personably blessed and endorsed by Connolly before his death but that scale of win was still staggering. Will be voting for him on Sept 9!
James is most likely going to win but my vote is for the under 40 democrat whose “kitchen table” issues matter to me. Anyone on this list is a better than the lawyer Amy Roma.
Was a pleasant morning to volunteer at swim meet. Met some white patents who were timing with me. One had 4 kids and other had 3. At this point AMA about their lives, where they live, what their kids do in their daily lives, sports they play, where they want to go college, grades, etc anything – I know it and I can share. Conversely ask them about the brown dad with them and do they even know if I had a kid or had just showed up to the meet for funsies 😂
I am going to cry today. I just used Cline AI autonomous code tool for VSCode (coz its approved for us to use). I gave it a simple prompt to take my upcoming holiday itinerary that Gemini created and create an interactive map (because Gemini couldnt) out of the uploaded PDF. I watched in horror as the autonomous bot went off creating a full fledged interactive map with weather details, places to see everything packaged inside a nice web-app. Then the fucking thing even ran tests on the code to ensure it was working before finally finishing it up and giving it to me. I am just legit…. jaw on floor. Ooof.
Convo between me and my teenage daughter. At least she didn’t call me boomer.
I uploaded the travel that Claude created into Gemini and asked it to improve it. Gemini got testy!
Our neighbors across the street are hosting a big party today – the amount of cars we have in neighborhood surpasses anything we have seen for a while. They had a big USAID board in front of their house in lawn- at some pt they took the sign and posed with the photos in their backyard. To be honest today only we came to know someone in their house works in usaid and maybe they are all getting together to reminisce their job and mission at usaid.
As expected England won the test match. This match was lost in first innings itself when India showcased that not only do they not have batting depth, but their bowling is woefully resembling 90s era dependent on one man age. It doesnt bode well for rest of the series if our batting depth doesnt deliver and our bowling goes nowhere. And those missed catches ugh. Suddenly missing the seniors of the team eh?
