I went for.a 5.8km walk in the afternoon, came back home, watched some YouTube videos and then went for an 11.6km walk thus making it a total of 17.4km that I’ve walked today. It actually worked out good to split the work out into two sessions rather than trying to do the 17.4km all at once. Tomorrow I’ll be doing the same and focus on ensuring I get consistently out and exercising every day but eventually I’d like to get to the point where I go for a 11.6km walk during the day then a 11.6km in the evening on my day off – really make use of the time I would have otherwise just doom scrolled.

On Tuesday I’ll be going for a walk in the afternoon, have dinner with mum then stop off at the supermarket to pick up a few bits and pieces – not a big shop since I’ve gotten myself stocked up pretty well but there are a few things I need to pickup. One thing that has really added some extra tastiness is eating the tuna/salmon rice bowls in conjunction with the roasted seaweed. It adds some extra flavour as well as variety in texture along with the added fibre and iodine that comes naturally with it. Tuesday night dinner will be panned seared salmon with a salad – one of thing things I love about summer is the availability of fresh produce so when the weather is good I like to take advantage of the opportunity because I know during the winter the price of fresh produce can be prohibitively expensive.

This week I’m going to make a few tweaks to my diet – I think what I need is some more protein which will help me feel fuller for longer. I may have a look at some protein bars and/or protein shake mix along with other forms of protein I can prepare and cook easily. What I’m also going to do is dial a bit back on the carbs as well and up the amount of fibre because I have a feeling that the carbs I have ben eating lack the fibre which is why I end up getting an energy spike then followed by a crash because the lack of a decent amount of fibre means the energy isn’t released slowly which is what fibre does.

When it comes to the world of tech, there are rumours of Apple maybe looking at reducing their risk of being dependent on TSMC and instead they’re looking at Samsung and maybe even Intel as well. It’ll be interesting to also see how Apple will navigate the current NAND and RAM storages, whether their M5 release will be delayed given the capacity that exists is being used up by AI orientated production. I guess we’ll wait and see what happens but then again anything could happen – Wall Street may finally come to its senses and realise that LLMs aren’t the be all and end all, that they won’t reach AGI using LLMs with all th money spent so far being more or less a write off thus freeing up capacity for more productive uses rather than speculative radium-water like idiocy.
