Productive day with gorgeous weather

I think I've hit a good balance today between working and not. Cassie and I have walked 9½ km so far today, spending 1¾ hours outside, and I've squished three bugs that were in the way of releasing a new version of the Inner Drive Journal (aka the software you're looking at right now). About 90 minutes ago I set Claude Sonnet to analyzing a pretty vexing bug that sometimes causes the index of posts to fail in a very specific way, and then while Sonnet did its thing, Cassie and I walked down to Belmont Harbor. I came back, read the analysis, looked at the fix plan, and told Claude to go ahead and fix it.

Unfortunately, about the time Cassie and I were passing Addison heading south, Claude.AI horked. Since 2:49 pm CDT, just about everything Anthropic offers has been down, so no bug fix yet. Pity, it's really the last one I need to fix before deploying everything I've worked on for the past 10 days.

Fortunately, I have several other things to do that don't require Claude, including taking a shower. It's nice out but I still walked for about 75 minutes. I really do not want Claude's help for that.
