GEN Xers - Welcome Home!
Gen Xers are the most technologically adaptable generation in human history, from the dial-up modem to AI. Together we can overcome any challenge and AI is our next tech challenge. Let's learn it together. :) Share a picture of yourself and tell us what you want to learn about AI. I'll go first... I want to learn AI so I can be in control of my employment future.

Book Canon
I'm curious what you guys think are your fave books in the Gen X Canon ? I have a lot on my MacBook - but I'm curious if I missed out on anything.
Ok, I am impressed
I have never written a line of code in my life unless you consider peek and poke commands on a Commodore 64 code. In any case, today I created a stand-alone PC program that takes a story premise, writes a script, writes character sheets, and then writes location descriptions. Then it breaks the script into shots and writes detailed prompts. Full Markdown, json and export. Now I am sure that there is a lot that could be added to it, a lot could be tweaked and who knows how well it works yet. I don't. But, to me, being of sound mind and advanced age, I never expected to be able to do this. Now I am working on four more things. Let's see how this does.
Building a Second Brain
A second brain typically means "an AI-augmented personal knowledge system where the AI doesn’t just store notes—it reads them, reasons over them, synthesizes insights, surfaces forgotten connections, and can help act on them." Basically a database of all your thoughts, ideas, communications, etc. I've broken them into different subsets of areas of focus. I'm also creating folders with information related to specific business practices or business experts. Then you point Claude to those areas and create a skill to review the information based on what you want out of it.. Using recommendations from people ahead of me and the Claude space, which are most those people :), I'm using the free download Obsidian to organize this information. Ideally, you'd put Obsidian into your standardized work flow and automatically export data to the appropriate folders through your workday so the second brain grows naturally with your experience. Right now this process is manual, so it's taking some time to get enough data in there to test out different skill markdown files,find out how best to store the information, organize the information, and access the information. I'll let you know how that goes.
