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

I just heard that Pope Francis has passed away. I'm not Catholic, but I thought he was a good man. Sadly, our country is being run by an idiot, mean-spirited child-man.#

I've been exploring different MCP servers today and came across a Spotify implementation that lets me play music from Claude Desktop. Very cool!#

It's a beautiful sunny Easter Sunday with the temps being a bit cooler than yesterday!#

Working for my daughter out at the I Made It Market retail store in the Mall at Robinson. I always enjoy talking with the customers. 😊#

It's going to be a beautiful, sunny day today, with the high around 80! 😃#

Hopefully going to carve out time to get back to working with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) today, including seeing how it would work with Ollama.#

Worked with my daughter last night on her new web site, making great progress. Need to clean up some under-the-hood stuff today while she works on the design.#

Happy Tax Day! 😃#

Typical April spring day with possible thunderstorms and a high in the low 70s! I'm not complaining! 😃#

My daughter's 412 Fest show yesterday was fun and a great success! A lot of the team mascots were on hand, plus good music and good food. Looking forward to next year's festival!#

My daughter has a show today in Bakery Square called 412Fest. Should be a lot of fun!#

Had a really interesting meeting yesterday with one of my consulting clients who helps raise capital for startups. They have a customer who is involved with smart building technology and they use Raspberry Pi for their hardware platform. Could be quite fun!#

I was successful last night tracking down a bug in my Micro.blog MCP server edit tool. It wasn't adding the tags via Claude Desktop, but once I added logging into my Python code, I was able to determine that I had to convert the string being passed to a list. Once I figured that out, adding tags were working successfully, although I do have more work to do around tags.#

My plan today is to continue working on my Micro.blog MCP server, adding in additional features.#

I use Warp for my terminal and I was having some problems with a Python script that I wanted to use in an MCP server when its built-in AI offered to examine my code. I was impressed how, after a few iterations, it was able to eliminate the bugs and produce a script that I was able to incorporate into my MCP server.#

I can't believe it snowed overnight! Not much, but either way it was a shock to my system!#

Still cloudy, rainy, and generally gross out today.#

A very chilly and wet day in store for our Sunday. Good day to work on some MCP server ideas!#

Going to be a very soggy weekend with a lot of rain and possible thunderstorms!#

Going to work with my daughter on her website migration today. I have most of the technical work done, but now she needs to decide on modifications for the template we are using.#

We had strong thunderstorms overnight that are probably related to the bad weather in the south and Midwest that have been deadly. Luckily, we are expected to have only light rain throughout today.#

Made a lot of progress yesterday and last night migrating my daughter's site from Etsy to Shopify. After some running around, I will be continuing the migration work.#

Today I will be working on migrating my daughter's Etsy site to her own domain using Shopify.#

The last day of March is cool and rainy, which is typical of Pittsburgh springs! ☔️#

Watched a 90-minute presentation on YouTube yesterday given by Mahesh Murag of Anthropic at the AI Summit in NYC back in February. It was called Building Agents with Model Context Protocol and it was fascinating what MCP can do and will be able to do in the coming months.#

Feels like a nice spring day is in store for us today! 😃#

The more I learn, the more I realize the potential of MCP is limited only by my imagination. 😊#
