"It's always good to be way ahead of your time!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

(Such as talking about artificial intelligence on your own radio show in Halifax, Nova Scotia, 42 years ago!)

So everyone seems to be working with Claude Code and Claude Cowork, so I had to jump in. (If you don't know what they are, find out fast and jump right in.) (Everyone is also talking about Clawdbot et al, and I'm jumping into that soon, too!)

I needed a project to explore what it can do.

I found one. I'm having fun.

And I have two reactions to Claude Cowork.

HOLY WOW! If you aren't learning how to use it, do so. Fast!

And, I was really quite ahead of the time, a lot of the time.

One thing that has made its way into this project is my 1984 radio series, which ran on CHNS in Halifax, Nova Scotia, back when I was a young 25-year-old accountant busy exploring the edges of the forthcoming technological revolution.

It was called Micro Minute. And it was ahead of its time. And I have the audio! Give it a listen!

Not only that, but I have the original memos that describe the series in depth, as we tried to get other offices in the firm in which I worked interested in it.

Check out show number 17! I'm talking about artificial intelligence - 42 years ago. And nailed it!

Futurist Jim Carroll is a digital pack-rat. He has kept most of the emails he has sent and received since 1984. Wild!

If application startup time & latency is an issue the new ReadyToRun format for your application. ReadyToRun is an Ahead-of-Time (AOT) compilation.
Due to the fact that R2R assemblies won't require JIT work when assembly is loaded. ReadyToRun application contain both Native and Manged code as the last one can be used for certain scenarios

To produce ReadyToRun code we need to pass an extra parameter when publishing platform-specific application version. See attached example image 👇
