Looking back at my 2025 running / exercise stats, I had ~195 days with exercise (walking, running, cycling).
Grand totals:
⏱️ 412 hours of exercise
🏃 780 miles
👟 2 pairs of shoes
Already started up exercise for 2026 and have 3 events planned (5k and at least 2x quarter marathons) 😃

Does anyone have guidance if this is even possible? Take a save game from #Steam and (through #XboxPlayAnywhere or otherwise) be able to transfer that save game to a purchased #Xbox game?
Specifically looking at #DaveTheDiver but others as well. Thanks in advance.

Spending some time each week in December on de-cluttering, not just around our house but also my digital life (email newsletters, browser favorites, photo backups, etc.) Feels good even if small, slow progress.
What are you doing to get yourself ready for a fresh start in 2026?

This was a great find on Woot (4D Build - Iron Man helmet). $4 plus shipping (also did an X Wing). More fun to put together than Legos in my opinion and way cheaper. Easy enough my kids could help.

Things you DON'T want to be web searching at 11:30pm on a Sunday night:
How to get pen ink stains off inside of dryer... 🫣😣
A $0.10 pen caused 1+ hours of cleanup on the dryer and clothes that it exploded on. Turns out nail polish remover (acetone) and rubbing alcohol worked best. 😐

Woke up at 6am (before kids awake and still in my pajamas 😁) to run to grocery store for eggs and milk so we could make scrambled eggs together before school.

Some days you just need to chainsaw a bunch of wood to unwind from work. Today was the day for me.

Andrej Karpathy’s take on AI coding agents feels grounded. The industry’s chasing full autonomy when models still hallucinate too much.
Agents that churn out a thousand lines of code leave you either blindly trusting them or slogging through reviews. These tools should embrace their fallibility.
