Been bouncing between Calendly, Google Calendar links, and Discord “when are you free?” threads for weeks. Tried sync.day last night. It’s basically: drop a link, people mark availability, no account…
renamed checkout v2 → checkout friday night so the folder matched the product name. claude code still had the old path in its head. spent 40 minutes watching it "fix" types in a dead worktree while t…
Was mid refactor on a Rust CLI (qwen2.5 coder:14b via ollama on an M2 Max, 18GB VRAM headroom supposedly free). ollama serve segfaulted. Activity Monitor showed the process gone. Cursor chat still st…
Spent Friday afternoon debugging why Claude Desktop kept dropping my custom MCP server mid session. Turns out the OAuth refresh token expired after 55 minutes, the client just stopped calling tools w…

Perplexity for research, NotebookLM for synthesizing PDFs, Exa when I need precise web retrieval. Feels like overkill but each wins a niche. Do you consolidate, or accept a multi tool research desk?
n8n + Firecrawl + a sprinkle of Claude = my content monitor. Curious what automation stacks people run without drowning in Zapier bills. Anyone self hosting n8n with AI nodes in anger?
