AI versus Marshy 76 - building a focus tunnel
AI versus Marshy 76 - building a focus tunnelgoing down the rabbit hole of building a custom tool on my mac for battling distractions with ADHD Heya! I had some great responses to the last newsletter - and it was good to know I'm not the only one posturing on this. I’m going to get into the weeds on a thing I mentioned: focus_tunnel. Focus_tunnel is some tooling I've put together for myself to combat my ADHD traits. I'm prone to distraction. Squirrel! 🐿️ See? As a knowledge worker this is bad. I
AI versus Marshy 75 - Reconciliation
AI versus Marshy 75 - Reconciliationthe best thing I can do is act in a way that makes things happen instead of reacting to a world that doesn't know what's happening...

AI versus Marshy 72 - some parts in a growth system
Hello stranger!Welcome to another edition of AI versus Marshy.Something unfortunate happened since last edition - I started writing a “let’s go deep on a topic” edition to change things up.Then it got too large, and the tool I was covering wasn’t as easy to use as originally hoped, and things got stuck.So then I abandoned ship, got really busy with client work (good), then went ahead and started writing another edition covering Claude Skills and some other things and then go stuck again!So here’
