My family put $1.2M into a solar array.
Then I got pulled into consulting, the monitoring portal was complicated, and I stopped checking.
Eventually I was afraid to look — what if something had broken months ago and I didn't know?
Now Claude logs in for me every month and drops a report in a sheet my whole family can see.
The new move for owners: one AI skill per portal.
The author of Coders has a quote that struck a nerve today:
"Most of all, they noted that coding required one particular psychological disposition:
A very high tolerance for daily, grinding frustration."
This explains the last 25 years of my life, and yet I still love doing it.
Finally deep diving on crypto/blockchain. I am starting with MIT's course by @GaryGensler. Very engaging first lecture. I am trying to put on my 1995 Internet hat and teach myself the next wave of tech.

The Brownie lesson started at 4.5 hours. How many people gave up in sheer frustration. I'm guessing a lot. I know I did 3 years ago when I tried to learn this stuff. It felt like everyone would dump a giant bag of mismatched tools.
