anyone else feeling this at the moment?
for someone who's being heavily criticised by the Mrs and friends for bombarding them with every idea I ever have - which can be 5 a minute - it creates a crippling effect when working with claude code now
my 'recruiter advisor' didn't answer the phone RE an idea i had this morning. so i just built it. and 30 minutes later its done.
the issue is whilst i was letting it spin away building that one idea, i started 2 more.
this can lead to 3 new ideas that improve our hiring and matching process in 1 day. which is great for both clients and candidates.
but now it's 140pm and my brain has used all its tokens up for the day already. and i cant quite retain my grip on the context for each of those 3 ideas that i need to polish off.
so im left feeling a touch overwhelmed a fuzzy brained.
its all positive.
but i did see an interesting poll recently where people who are leaning into ai are now working more now than ever before.
which reminds me of a professional cyclists quote:
"it doesn't get easier, we're just going faster"
