I wish ChatGPT was just Codex. No reason to separate the agentic one from the normal chat.
I wish NOT.
I use ChatGPT as a free trial therapist for discussing every questionable life decision I've ever made or will make.
If ChatGPT was just Codex, I'd burn my entire monthly coding limits on things like:
"I have 37 app ideas and emotional attachment to all of them."
"Is this a good life decision?"
"Why did he send me this song?"
"Help me brainstorm this startup until it becomes a 14-page architecture document."
"Can you help me process my feelings?"
I need one model for coding and one model for my daily board meetings with myself.

What drives my work ethic is to push first so avoid dealing with merge conflicts.

There is no need for motivation if you are the older child in your family. When it comes to being an older daughter, that is another story. Failure is not an option here, since the sustainability of the family depends on you.
As an only child, I feel this in 8 different dimensions.
Being an only child is a strange mix of privilege and pressure.
You get all the support, all the attention, all the love.
And one day you realize you'll also inherit all the responsibility ALONE
The actual hard part is realizing your parents put all their eggs in one basket, and that basket is... you.
My parents never pressured me to succeed but they only told me to do my best.
They never gave me speeches about success, grades, or ambition. But somehow that made it heavier.
When nobody pushes you, and you still feel the need to work hard, you realize you're carrying something else entirely.
I grew up watching two of the hardest-working people I know. They didn't teach me work ethic through lectures; they taught it by existing. Through early mornings, sacrifices I didn't notice at the time, and the way they kept showing up even when things were difficult.
Nobody told me I had to succeed.
But I watched what it took to build the life I was given, and somewhere along the way that became its own responsibility.
Being an only child means there isn't a sibling to split the future with. No one else to share the worry, the expectations, the decisions, or the inevitable moment when your parents start getting older.
Sometimes I wonder why my parents decided to put all their eggs in one basket.
Then I remember they never treated me like an investment.
They just loved me enough to bet everything on me. And honestly, that's both comforting and terrifying.
(Just some thoughts that keep me at night sometimes)

Do you ever look at someone and think to yourself "if I only had a gun"
I promise this is relevant for the future.

"It's crazy how prayers get ALWAYS answered.
Sometimes the answer comes wrapped in exactly what you asked for.
Other times, the answer is a closed door, and God quietly shows you why it had to stay closed. What felt like silence turns out to be protection. What felt like disappointment reveals itself as mercy.
And suddenly, you understand that every prayer was answered; some with a gift, and some with an explanation."

My Italian colleague was talking how Americans are uncivilized for putting ketchup on pizza.
Little did he know I'm American in heart when it comes to ketchup on everything, especially on pizza.

I haven't tried it
I finished a meeting and decided to treat myself for a second coffee.
I walked between Bole Atlas and Bole Church (The big Church) 4 times looking for the cafe.
Google maps took me through an alley, got terrorized by a man saying I can't pass if don't let him clean my shoes.
LIKE HELLO?
I'm walking home.

My mind is allergic to reading documentations.
I usually give it to Claude and tell him exactly what I want to do.
Home boii displays the info I need to know more aesthetically

If I get $1 for every time I got to know a person called Yohannes. I will be able to pay a Claude Code subscription for a month.
