Journal Week 30, July 2026
A very mixed week, with some good enough days, but also some days where I really struggled to get through them. I managed to get some chores done. I even got a bit of exercizing in. I had some fun with young Master Koa. I had a few laughs with the Shaun the Sheep movies. The weather wasn't too hot, so that was nice. Although there were quite a few buzzing terrorists , which was very annoying. But... The new electronic swatter did help me to take some revenge on a few of them, frying them with a bang (and a smell, ugh). I watched all the Ice Age movies, while dealing with my body that wasn't sure if it was warm or cold, and with a stomach that was upset for reasons unknown... As mentioned, it was a very mixed week, and there were some goods and bads... A 14-day weather forecast graphic from "weer&radar" for the town of Herpen, starting from July 19, 2026. The image has a dark blue header and footer with a white background for the main graph.The graph uses a red line with dots to show the daily maximum temperatures, and a blue line with dots for the minimum temperatures (both in Celsius). At the bottom of the graph, there is a color-coded bar indicating the expected amount of sunshineranging from beige for "weinig" (little) to bright yellow for "veel" (a lot)along with blue raindrop icons for days with expected precipitation.Overall, the chart shows a steady warming trend, moving from the low 20s in the first week to the high 20s by the end of the second week. Here is the day-by-day breakdown:Week 1Monday: High of 21C, low of 11C, with little sunshine.Tuesday: High of 23C, low of 10C, with little sunshine.Wednesday: High of 20C, low of 11C, with little sunshine and rain expected.Thursday: High of 21C, low of 15C, with little sunshine.Friday: High of 24C, low of 9C, with little sunshine.Saturday: High of 25C, low of 14C, with little sunshine and rain expected.Sunday: High of 24C, low of 16C, with little sunshine.Week 2Monday: High of 24C, low of 16C, with moderate sunshine.Tuesday: High of 25C, low of 14C, with moderate sunshine.Wednesday: High of 26C, low of 13C, with moderate sunshine.Thursday: High of 27C, low of 12C, with moderate sunshine.Friday: High of 27C, low of 14C, with moderate sunshine.Saturday: High of 27C, low of 15C, with little sunshine.Sunday: High of 28C, low of 16C, with a lot of sunshine.Quick links to the days of the week: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday.(16)

RE:

I had a fun evening with Claude today. We were trying to use local LLM models on gfx1030 cards with 16gb vram and 8k context limit to try and generate a Rust project, given a Claude prepared PLAN.md file.
Gemma4 12B QAT Q4 model is a very good contender. It ran tools as soon as requirements came up, did not need handholding at all. It still hallucinates functions, names, dates, etc. so its not perfect but compared to its competitors, it won my eval test.
Claude Code has been a great tool to build stuff with. Its a great companion.
We tried qwen2.5 coder 7b instruct model but it didnt know tool calling. Failed twice.
Later, we tried a Groq llama 8b fine tuned model and this was also not great - it is very unreliable in following rules mentioned in .md files.
1/3 it actually called the required tool but even then, it reverted back to using talking rather than doing stuff with the output.
I have stopped the testing for now. I will return to this, not sure when.
Sorry old chap, I don't understand your banter.

Journal Week 29, July 2026
A bit of a mixed week, weather wise, emotion wise, sleep wise... On Monday, a new coach came, as mine was on vacation. I was a bit nervous, but she was really nice, and I enjoyed my time with her. We even came up with a plan for the next week, so fingers crossed that this will work out well enough. Tuesday, mum came to watch Koa, so I could go to physio, without worrying about Koa. I know I will need to practice with him to be on his own more, but if I know I will be gone a bit longer, especially when the weather will be very hot, I feel better knowing he's not on his own too much. Wednesday was a harder day, as it was Arwen's second heavenly birthday... I tried to get through the day, and it wasn't too easy. Thursday I tried to find a better combination between relaxing and being active. Friday was not too bad, so that was a plus.Saturday was a very mixed day, because I dealt with an autustic meltdown, and I hated it so much... It wore me out a lot, and Koa and I had a long night, which was very welcome. Sunday, we went on an impromptu visit to the Herperduin, a first time for Koa. It was a bit more than he was "allowed" to do, but we had a break at the waterside at the benches, and when we got home, we had a very good rest... I don't know if Koa will ever love the water as much as Arwen and Chance did, but I will keep taking him to it, to see how he grows... A weather forecast graphic from "weer & radar" showing a 14-day outlook ("14-daagse verwachting") for Herpen, dated July 13, 2026.The image has a dark blue background with white and yellow text.

It is still archived. Its not revived yet but I am slowly opening up to the possibility.
I have used Claude to find the bug that stopped the development fully 3 years ago. Claude read the code and pointed out what went wrong.
Right now, with newly found enthusiasm, I created a new branch on top of public lsp branch and have managed to get comms working with rust-analyzer
Theres still a lot of plumbing to do but its going good.
