I built a Claude Code skill that formats blog posts as Gutenberg blocks and pushes them to WordPress as drafts via wp-cli over SSH, all without leaving the terminal.
Week of March 2-8: Zombies, trials, and ditching ChatGPT Bit of everything this week. Couple of movies, a new self-hosted toy, and I finally cancelled something I should’ve cancelled months ago. Korea trip is also taking shape. Tv series/Movies Read(ing) Study Personal projects Travel Around the Web Comment on Fediverse (Mastodon)
I had three hours in Rome, patchy data, and a loose mental list of monuments to see before reaching Termini station. Navigation apps know where to go, guidebooks know what you’re looking at, but nothing does both. After trying Google My Maps, Apple Maps, and HTML exports, I found the solution in Obsidian’s Leaflet plugin: one note with an interactive map, route overlay, historical context for each stop, and direct links to Google Maps for turn-by-turn navigation between waypoints.
This week I mainly worked on organizing my schedule in light of a first half of 2026 that will see me traveling a lot, both for pleasure (Rome, Korea, Monte Carlo, Algiers) and for work (New York, Zurich, and Madrid). I have several personal activities that are about to start, not least the opera history […]
After trying elaborate Obsidian workflows with complex hierarchies and templates, I discovered a minimal system that actually sticks: daily notes with tagged bullet points and Dataview dashboards. One file per day, one line per thought, each tagged for later retrieval. Instead of organizing upfront, queries automatically pull relevant information into dashboards when needed.
A week with Claude Code on Amazon Bedrock: automated code writing, tests, deployments, and document generation from meeting transcripts. Got it talking to draw.io for architecture diagrams. Also 3D-printed coin organizers and wrote up a pandoc trick for rendering Mermaid charts into Word.
You wrote your docs in Markdown with Mermaid diagrams because they’re version-controlled and easy to edit. Then someone asked for a Word file, and your flowcharts turned into raw syntax. Pandoc handles most Markdown-to-docx conversion fine, but it treats Mermaid blocks as plain text.
The first half of the year brings an exciting travel season with trips to Rome, Monte Carlo for tennis, South Korea, Algiers, and possibly Seattle for work. Between booking flights and accommodations, I’m revisiting classic films like Goodfellas, reading David Brooks’ latest book, and working on productivity-focused blog posts about Mac workflows.
Constant context switching between applications to capture notes and tasks was fragmenting my attention and killing productivity. By setting up global shortcuts for Obsidian and Todoist on macOS, I eliminated the friction of leaving my current app to jot down thoughts, preserving focus and flow throughout the workday.
