Claude Code was my favorite, but it’s taken a dive in the last week or two. It’s gotten slow and I hit my token limit much sooner than I used to. I’ve been relying on it less. 🤖12 Apr 2026 17:37 +0000at://did:plc:3bi4ewf2qb7yygum7piunzit/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjcvcnyoyp2qhttps://bsky.app/profile/rwgrier.bsky.social/post/3mitn4lh36u2uI want to like AirPods Max. I have a first-gen USB-C model. But they are so freakin’ heavy and give me a headache after about 30 minutes. The AirPods Pro are so much better and more comfortable. 🎧06 Apr 2026 16:00 +0000at://did:plc:3bi4ewf2qb7yygum7piunzit/app.bsky.feed.post/3mitn4lh36u2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/rwgrier.bsky.social/post/3mictecfxep2uThis is going to be a long Phillies baseball season. 😞 ⚾️30 Mar 2026 23:37 +0000at://did:plc:3bi4ewf2qb7yygum7piunzit/app.bsky.feed.post/3mictecfxep2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/rwgrier.bsky.social/post/3mhypcd6weu26I see the Phillies are starting right where they left off.
