Today we're attending my grandson's percussion show and then later celebrating my oldest daughter's (and my grandson's mother) 40th birthday!#

Had a great time last night hanging out with my old Industry Weapon colleagues. We try to get together every couple of months with 6-12 people showing up!#

I am continuing to grow my knowledge and experience with developing Pydantic AI agents. Starting to understand the potential of AI agents as well.#

Through a series of articles on Medium, I have slowly started understanding the Pydantic AI agents' platform. Very interesting!#

I finally figured out how to change the selected text color in Zed! They actually have a pretty slick way to override default settings for a theme once I figured out where it was documented.#

Started looking at the Zed editor late yesterday and find it quite interesting. My only struggle is figuring out how to show what text is currently selected in a brighter color so I can actually see the selection.#

Rainy and cooler today, which is typical for spring here in Pittsburgh!#

My family had a wonderful Mother's Day yesterday that included bike riding around the city and dinner at the Sly Fox! My wife really enjoyed her day!#

Happy Mother's Day to all of the wonderful moms around the world! 😍#

Today is the beautiful start of a week of mid-70s temps and for the most part, sunny and dry weather. ☀️#

Chilly start to the day, and from what I heard, it's not going to be very warm the rest of the day. The joys of spring in Pittsburgh! 😃#

We discovered last night that the company that replaced our roof 14 years ago took a lot of shortcuts that we were unaware of, and now it appears we will need to get a new roof once again. Very disgusted at the moment!#

Back to focusing on Pydantic AI and Model Context Protocol (MCP), which is what started me chasing down the Marimo rabbit hole. 😄#

I do have this bad habit where I find something new and shiny (Marimo) that I tend to go down a rabbit hole until I finally realize I'm wasting my time. Sigh.#

After doing some more experimenting with Marimo, I decided it wasn't a good fit for what I'm trying to accomplish with Pydantic AI agents. I'm probably going to go back to using Gradio if I require some sort of UI for an agent.#

Last night I started exploring Marimo as both a replacement for my Jupyter notebooks as well as an interface for Pydantic AI agents. More digging to come!#

Learned a decent amount about Pydantic AI, but still have a long way to go, feeling comfortable writing agents with the library.#

I'm also looking at the possibility of using Marimo notebooks as the interface to my Pydantic AI agents. Stay tuned!#

My plan today is to dig deep into Pydantic AI and how I can create agents using a Gradio interface.#

Cool and overcast Sunday morning for the Pittsburgh Marathon!#

My youngest daughter, who owns Zenspire Designs, is doing a show today at the Mt. Lebanon Galleria from 10:00 to 3:00, along with 70+ other vendors.#

Duquesne Light (our local electric company) is slowly making a dent in all of the power outages. My daughter's family got their power back on last night! 😊#

Our region is still dealing with power outages from the storm Tuesday evening! Some people may not get power until next week! A house up the street from me was crushed by a tree that was blown over by the 70 MPH wind gusts!#

Had a really wicked storm yesterday evening with winds up to 75 MPH and power going off all over the place. Our power only blinked a couple of times, but people less than five minutes away still don't have power! A beloved pizza place called Fiori's had its roof blown off! Crazy!#

It's going to be a wild weather day today, with possible severe thunderstorms, hail, and maybe even a tornado watch!#

Our Maryland grandkids and family went back home yesterday afternoon! It's back to being relatively quiet once again! #

Feels like winter is trying to make a comeback!#

The Maryland grandkids got into town last night and are spending the weekend! Lots of noise and laughter! 😊#

Lots of running around today, plus my electrician is installing a new ceiling fan for us.#

Going to be a hot one today! Might have to turn on that air conditioning for a little bit!#

Watched the first six episodes of The Residence on Netflix last night and really enjoyed it! I plan on finishing the last two episodes tonight! 😃#

Spent the evening learning about Pydantic AI and Model Context Protocol. Still a lot more to learn, but it's very cool! 😊#
