Chicagoland folks: Metra’s holiday trains don’t have a public schedule, but they are trackable. I created an automation to alert me when a holiday train gets put into service on my line.

One thing I really appreciate about Claude Code is how it shows acceptance prompts. They let me see the logic behind the code and actually learn from it. In the screenshot, it had taken a flawed approach at first, but I asked it to use different logic to determine MacOS display types.

And its finally live! Created a #ObsidianMD plugin that dynamically changes the tab size to contain the entire note title

can find it on the Plugin store and GitHub: github.com/bwya77/autof...
