My approach this week to vibe coding mirrored a close friend's approach to juggling.
He will watch patiently and politely, ask a few questions about how the motion feels, and then proceed to master in a day or two what took me decades to learn.
His secret was simple: he had put in so many thousands of hours of practice that he just didn't need as many hours to master a minor variation.
I think I did that to some colleagues this week, as I joined vibe code projects they are now ready to bring me in to collaborate on.
I still swing quickly back and forth between "I'm still trying to remember what any of this is called" and "well, I do have most of that working, let me walk you through it."

#FreeGazaCircus members dodge the daily threat of violence under #genocide while #juggling #beatboxing #dancing for displaced children and families. Gazan cinematographer #AhmedAlDanaf co-directed the film across borders and internet blackouts with Egypt-based filmmaker #MaiSaad, capturing much of the soundscape — children singing, the constant buzz of #drones overhead — on a single neck microphone.

@foobarblubb I wasn't the only one. This year there have been men jogglers national records from Japan, Australia, Czech Republic and other countries I forgot.
They did an excellent job in communicating the event, so 80 people signed up for the #joggling competitions

Road race: 3 loops around #Ptuj Gavni Square (1 mile total) on uneven cobblestone with an uphill and downhill section.
All I can say is that I survived 😂. I walked a couple of times when going uphill because I didn't train my endurance enough.
In any case I completed the race 💪🏃♀️🤹♀️!
This is our last day in #Slovenia. Tomorrow we start our trip back home with a lot of good memories ❤️

This is me and Carly at the start of our 3 clubs-100m sprint.
The only 2 women over 40 attempting it.I had a bad start on this one and my clubs fell shortly after the picture being taken. That's my only drop. Not that I had any chance to win this, Carly is very fast!

Today I took part in the #joggling sprint finals.
As there are only 4 women participating in the over-40 category, we all passed the qualification rounds.And I outdid myself in the 3 balls 100 m sprint finals. Carly 🇺🇸 was fast and came in 1st, as expected. However Ruth 🇩🇪, who runs faster than me, dropped her balls several times. I didn't drop them once, so I finished 2nd before Ruth.
More pics later.

💰 #Palantir found the magic formula for paying less #tax than your local bakery while #juggling public sector contracts like a circus clown. 🎪 Who needs a crystal ball when you can juggle numbers instead? 📉🔮

On the lighter side, I have received the International Jugglers' Association's 2026 Excellence in Education Award. Wow! Forty years or so of frivolity is finally playing off big. : )
A massive thank you to the IJA and the lovely people who nominated me.

#workoutOfTheDay
This morning I went to the "Intro to #joggling workshop" at #EJC2026 in Ptuj 🇸🇮After that, the 1st sessions of the track qualifiers took place. I tried joggling with clubs while I was there and then decided to try the 3 clubs 100m qualifiers.
I did it in 39 s, but I can try again tomorrow. The fastest man with clubs ran the 100m in 16s.
So far there are only 5 women registered in the over-40 category. None ran the 3 clubs qualifiers.

🚴♀️ bike ride ➡️ (3+3) km
🌡️ Warm-up 8'🤹♀️🏃♀️#joggling (road+uneven cobblestone) ➡️ 1.9 km, ball drops: 32 🚨
I understand now what they'll keep the race short and only let us race just 1 mile. Joggling on unevenly cobbled streets is much harder than on a flat surface.
By comparison, last time I joggled, I ran 3 km and dropped the balls 23 times. So the ball drop rate has doubled. This is bad 😵!

@JvdB yes it's truly impressive!
If you're interested you can find the worldwide records for each category in the last pages of this pdf
https://drive.google.com/file/d/154fiD7jKlEePCY-pO9fOLAU0erF3ytRH/view?usp=sharingIn Europe you can see #joggling competitions only at the European Juggling Convention, held once a year.
In the US there are other competitions

@almostsurely
My bummers are:
1️⃣ uneven cobblestone (I never trained for it and my ankles generally don't do well running on uneven cobbled streets
2️⃣ Multiple laps on narrow streets. Fast jogglers will be at their 2nd or 3rd laps while I'm still at the 1st. -
Big news. Details have been published for the #EJC road race.
First of all, it's not a 5k anymore, just a 1-mile race.
Considering that I already joggled for more than 3 km in training, it should be feasible.
Secondly, if many people sign up, the race will be divided by category.
Last year there weren't many women competing, so this would make it significantly less "chaotic" 😄.Given all this, I am wondering if I should try 3 clubs in my next training session 🤔

A #joggling WhatsApp community with different groups has been created.
So today I got to read the first message from Scott, one of the 100m 7-balls finalist in 2025.
Yeah, you read that right. This guy juggles seven balls while running fast 🫨🤹♀️
People like him come from another planet, if you ask me.
The skills allowing them such prowess are simply unbelievable. Coordination, speed and reflexes must be top notch. -
There's one thing Slovenian #EJC organizers are nailing: communication.
For #joggling this year they encourage contestants to pre-register, whether it is for the track field single and relay competitions, or the city 5k.
A guide has been uploaded on the website, explaining the rules, the events and previous records.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/154fiD7jKlEePCY-pO9fOLAU0erF3ytRH/view?usp=sharingThere's even a newbie event on the 1st day, welcoming anyone who'd like to try ♥️

🚴♀️ Cycling to Quartier Libre 10'
🌡️8' warm-up🏃♀️🤹♀️ #joggling 3 laps ➡️ 3.16 km w/ 25 ball drops
AJE* = 126.4 m🚴♀️ Back home 10'
I am so not ready for this 5k. I have 3 joggling workouts left before leaving for the EJC. So the plan is to try 4 laps (~ 4k) next, hoping that my arms will hold for another 8 min.
Today was sunny with moderate wind. A few bursts made my balls drop, but the temperature was enjoyable at 20°C.

@salcode BTW, if that’s a (semi-/seasonally-) regular #juggling club, an organiser should add it to the JEdge list: https://jugglingedge.com/clublistings.php

I had a great time #juggling with the Reading Jugglers this week!
