Had the weirdest fever dream of having Cline and Cursor (two software development AIs) work together on my software development business and woke up in a cold sweat

Yesterday, Japan Airlines and Finnair flights from Helsinki to Tokyo took very different routes. Even though it flew further, Finnair beat JAL to Haneda. We look at some of the flight planning considerations. flightradar24.com/blog/flight-...

I don’t understand this weather† — I have the windows open in June and I almost need a hoodie (I mean, I do need one to go out because of the drizzle) † this is not a complaint

Went to bed with a case of food poisoning and woke up to my phone telling me my heart rate and breathing rate were higher than normal. (Which, of course, since I didn’t sleep well, but it’s wild to see the numbers immediately like that)

❝Over four months, LLM users consistently underperformed at neural, linguistic, and behavioral levels. These results raise concerns about the long-term educational implications of LLM reliance and underscore the need for deeper inquiry into AI's role in learning.❞ arxiv.org/abs/2506.08872

Stats Sunday! Today marks 100 days that I’ve met my step goals in a row. Yesterday, I broke 2 million steps for 2025. That’s about 1500km (~930 miles). At this rate, I’ll easily pass 4 million steps for the year (last year: 3.2 million). I’ve also made my step count 153/165 days so far.
