Some of the things #49
Welcome to the 49th entry of my public journal, where I share *some of the things* I've been exploring across work, tech, wellness, and life.
Dear friends,
Good morning and happy friday from ethdenver. This is going to be a very short post, just sharing a few updates and links to things I’ve found interesting since my last update.
How I Built an AI Bot. I finally got around to consolidating my progress updates (part 1, part 2 and part 3) about building a Farcaster AI bot into its own dedicated blog post. I documented my vision for the bot, the technical solution (RAG), its various components and architecture, my tech stack, its current capabilities and future roadmap, lessons learned and reflections.
Vibe Code a Frame. I recently used AI to quickly generate a v2 frame for freecompliment.com using node.js and got it deployed within a few hours. I’m having a lot of fun using AI to get back into hands on coding. But can someone with no dev experience use AI to deploy a frame? Enter vibe coding. Keccers wrote a blog detailing how she used replit and chatgpt to create and deploy a frame with no dev skills required.
How Fast Can You Type? Here’s a fun typing speed test. I got 64 words per minute, maintaining 100% accuracy, using a keyboard. I guess that typing class I had in middle school is still coming in handy. Just don’t ask me how fast I can type on my phone.
Building a personal website has been on my mind recently. I don’t love having my writing dispersed across medium, substack, paragraph and other places and I’ve thought about creating a simple page to either self-host my writing, or at minimum to have one place to index it all. It’s not a huge priority yet but I came across some links about personal hosting that resonated with me that I might want to refer back to in the future: localghost.dev, the case for the personal website, and finally orbiter.host, a new app built by Justin Hunter and Steve Simkins which lets you host static sites using IPFS and base.

A Note to My Readers
I started this substack in December 2022 as an experiment to see if developing a writing habit would help clarify my thinking and/or provide other benefits. You can read about my original intentions in my first post or my more recent reflections after sticking with it for a year.
I write about twice a month and share musings, meditations, and links to things I’m finding interesting as I build out a farcaster-native media company, a modern technology consulting company, raise my kids, and have fun creating and learning in the worlds of crypto, tech, finance, science and wellness.
Thank you for supporting my writing and journey. If you’d like to get in touch you can reply to me here or find me on X and farcaster.
Until next time, keep putting good into the world. —adrienne🌏❤️
