Scanner
I recently found a book called "Refuse to choose" by a Barbara Sher. It's about a certain kind of person, which she calls "scanners", and I must say, as I read the book it seemed to me that she was describing me with uncanny accuracy! What is a scanner? Put simply, a person with too many interests who can't just "pick one" to the exclusion of all others.

Distrust of AI coding agents (Google Jules)
That's what I assume a lot of people's initial reaction would be. I just tried Google Jules, Google's AI coding agent, just because I happen to own a Pixel 9 and that comes with a 1 year free subscription to Google One. I figure I should give new things a shot. Maybe I will be wrong. Who knows.

Welcome Chadobear
I just read an introductory post with that little burst of enthusiasm you get when you first encounter the Gemini space. A new author, a new capsule and new energy! Welcome Chadobear, glad to have you hear.
