Fuzzy brained, but starting to figure this thing out.

• Morning Status:
  • Feeling a bit fuzzy brained ... I had a cold like 2 weeks ago and hope it's not coming back or getting a new one. I don't think I have allergies. Still. I was face-to-face with a LOT of people yesterday. So while I'm feeling only very slight off, I'm going Virtual today to see how it progresses.
• General Status:
  • Felt much better as the day went! Maybe I'm fine?
  • Did my first coffee-chat, it was lovely
  • I might start doing some Pomodoros tomorrow
  • The presentations were delightful!
  • I also went to a manager-roundtable which was helpful for some work-stuff
• Alloy+LLM+Rails Project:
  • Worked on some Alloy fundamentals and resources
  • Watched and made notes on an inspirational video, wrote a blog post on it
  • Slight tangent, but started poking at low-level local LLM setup to work on my next-token visualization exploration
  • I'm trying out python with llama-cpp-python as an easy and capable approach
  • I have it working enough to do some completions
  • Next I am going to work on doing token level interactive tokens, and then I'll find someone to help me visualize with d3 or something to give a hands-on feel for next-token generation
  • That is (a) fun, and (b) might lead to some insights in some of my other studies here
• Nerd Snipes:
  • While watching an inspirational video on Alloy and practicalizing Formal Methods, I was grabbing a few screenshots and YET AGAIN realized that my vim-based markdown edit workflow doesn't mesh with ad hoc image insertion. I set up clipboard-image.nvim and now I can paste like magic!
