Turned on the AC’s cooling for the first time this year.
I’ve kept up Boldvoice for over 40 days now, and it’s a great app. Just 10–15 minutes a day is enough. You learn the quirks of your own pronunciation and how to move your tongue, so in a way you internalize an accurate “form.”
Finished implementing the features I’d planned for basqet in two days of development. Going to try an EAS Preview Build of basqet for dogfooding.

I started listening to some software-engineer podcasts that AI recommended to me.
This year, on both the L/S fronts — that is, not just strengthening output via BoldVoice but also strengthening input — I want to push forward.
I’ve got the Greek (triangular) type, where the index finger is the longest. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgrpQNRkCPE
Looks like notebookLM and gemini got integrated.
My May running came to 12 workouts, 88.17km. Didn’t quite reach the monthly 100km. The gym is closed for maintenance on the 1st of every month. In May I only rested 2 days. I was just going out of inertia, but this much is just right as a habit.
