ahrefs DR reverse engineering: With my own efforts I only reached 70% correlation between model and reality. Hired someone on fiverr for $90 - now the correlation is 99% - I still cannot believe it - need some more checks but it looks very promising!

Trying to solve a math problem in my code. AI did not help me (I tried like 5 iterations with chatGPT and claude) So I used my own braincells. Crazy, yes?

booked a person on fiverr to do data science for me - after several weeks of failed attempts (and me not wanting to learn another thing) - I gave up and booked a fiverr gig

watched Daniel Vasallo being interviewed in the Morning Maker Show - I'm a fanboy of both so had a blast watching this live

updated some code in my old project. Couldn't get it running locally so I just deployed the code change blindly to prod. Seems to work 😊️️️️️️

got sick again - very strange: my stomach got weird and my head stopped working, never had anything like it

ahrefs DR reverse engineering - back up from 69% correlation to 81% correlation - thinking about hiring someone to find a good model for me

continued on my ahrefs DR reverse engineering. Around 10h investment, old model: correlation: 89%, new model: correlation 69% 😭

had a lovely chat with Dan Mindru and Dmytro Krasun

sending a few video messages to good friends. Took me only 2h and the energy and friendships I got back from sending them was overwhelming

went to the gym at 07:00. That's my favourite time. Sunday morning before 09:00 nobody else it at the gym 😄

working overtime for my 9-5, quite the drag as I was looking forward to do some side-building on the weekend 😕

reverse engineering ahrefs DR metrics. I'm 2 months, 70 commits into this. I like these deep dives a lot. But then they are scary because I never know if it pays off

survived 9-5 with still a positive mood - some days this is enough for side-building

going to spa and eating out for our 20th wedding anniversary

great chat with Patrice Gorissen about burnouts and how to prevent them (she has 17 years of coaching experience in this area)

helped my son setting up his fiverr account to earn some money in school. All he got for now were 6 scam requests 🤔

reverse engineering ahrefs DR algo. I have found a model with 89% correlation. Which is very strong already! #seokickstarter

finding unbilled invoices at my 9-5, spent the past 3 days nonstop trying to fix. Now the weekend comes and no energy for 9-5. Oh well 😥

went to lunch with an ex working colleague who stopped working at my 9-5 in March, he still didn't find new work though 🙁
