What I'm currently up to, and what I'm currently thinking about. Or at least, what I'm willing to share on a website.
Most top-of-mind first:
This has been an incredibly rewarding experience. A lot of people say that they couldn't do foster care, but you really just never know what you're capable of until you try. I've found to my surprise that once my wife and I got used to the extra responsibilities, it didn't feel so overwhelming anymore to suddenly be parents. And the benefit of doing something really beneficial (such as foster care) is that you feel like you're doing something really beneficial, which was something we really needed now that we're done with school.
I'm working on self-hosting AI on my laptop and making it actually useful. Still a work in progress. I'm currently using LMStudio to host the model and Hermes as the harness.
