Where are you finding the best material for reading/learning?

- everything that simon writes (https://simonwillison.net/)

- anything that goes deep into issues (I seldom read “i love llms” type posts like this is great: https://blog.nilenso.com/blog/2025/09/15/ai-unit-of-work/)

- lots of experimentation - specifically I have spent hours and hours doing the exact same feature (my record is 23 times).

This is fantastic. I really appreciate how the two audio loops take advantage of stereo and are on separate channels. Much more immersive this way.

When did Palo Alto become South Bay? South Bay was always much further south.

Palo Alto is in Santa Clara County whereas Menlo Park and East Palo Alto are in San Mateo. That might be how.
