Here's my monthly newsletter about what I'm up to, which I send in place of social media. What I did in September• I've started publishing on Contraption Company every Friday. My posts last month: Internal Tools of Find AI - a recording of a presentation I gave at an event in NYC, Wine Craft - a video about winemaking in Alsace, How I use data to optimize AI apps - a collaboration with Velvet about workflows for running and managing LLM models, Is fractional work the future? - an interview with Taylor from FractionalJobs.io about whether knowledge work should be part-time, and How to self-publish a programming book - an interview with Ayush Newatia about how he wrote a book about building applications in Ruby on Rails. The next post comes out this Friday! • Lots has been happening with Find AI. We announced an algorithm upgrade, new logo, and early access to our API.  • I visited Washington, D.C., briefly - it was fun to explore the East Coast via train. • Spent a weekend up in Hudson, where I always enjoy visiting Moto Coffee/Machine. Things to share• Gadgets: I'm enjoying the new Aeropress Premium. I love coffee. Years ago, I decided to keep my home coffee setup minimal by only having an Aeropress. As I decreased my plastic usage, the old Aeropress became one of the last big pieces of plastic in my life. The new Aeropress Premium updates the coffee maker with glass and metal and is beautifully designed. • Articles: Have hobby apps like Strava become the new social networks?, The untold story of Sqlite, The CIA is using social media to recruit informants  • Fun fact: MMA is illegal in Norway Plans for October• Making some big announcements with Find AI • Continuing to publish on Contraption Company • Returning to San Francisco for two weeks to reconnect with the city Where I'll be:• 21 Oct - 2 Nov: San Francisco 🌁
