Hey. Right below this: me, face-down, 2pm Saturday, on a daybed that isn't mine. It looks worse than it is. It might be the high point of my month. We'll get back to it.

Work first, unfortunately. Paramount and Warner Bros. are becoming one company — a $111-billion deal the government looked at and went, sure, fine. I'm nowhere near that number on the org chart. I feel it anyway, like a low-grade fever. Everyone inside is quietly auditioning for a chair that might not exist when the music stops. My boss and I agreed on week one: no beef. Be useful, be visible, don't flinch. Ask me again next quarter, assuming we both still have chairs.

The other thing eating my brain: the job keeps changing shape under our feet. AI rewrote what "software engineer" means around last Tuesday and will do it again next — the work is sliding from writing the thing to deciding what the thing should be and whether the machine got it right. DORA's 2025 research says the quiet part out loud: AI is an amplifier, not a shortcut. Throughput up, instability up. The teams winning aren't the ones with the shiniest model — they're the ones with version control and small batches. Systems problem, not tools problem.
Then Anthropic dropped Claude Fable 5 — Mythos-class, million-token context, the kind of model that makes you rethink what "one sitting" means for a refactor. I had four days with it before access got weird. Also: an email calling me a "top Claude Code power user," which is either a compliment or an intervention. They're shipping me a physical thing via Brilliant — tracking number and all — and I have no idea what it is. My title says Engineering Manager; my browser history says otherwise.

Best work day of the month: Justin and I at the Pride parade with the Jackass crew. Yes, that Jackass. Steve-O, shirtless, rainbow umbrella, doing exactly what you predicted. Justin found his people for one afternoon and I'm not convinced he's fully come back.

Not everything was a merger, thank god. Kobe folds into shapes a spine shouldn't allow. The cat clears four feet between shelves like rent is due. I film them because I'm quietly asking the question I can't ask myself: what are you doing, and why like this. Dinner with Dakota and Maddie at Quarter Sheets — closed the place down talking about nothing. Perfect night.

Okay. The real reason I've been emotional.
World Cup started. Korea is in it. Opening week, down 0–1 to Czechia, then Hwang In-beom decided the match was his. 2–1. I watched alone and made noises my neighbors have kindly not mentioned. Next up: Korea vs. Mexico, June 18, Guadalajara — my brother, my dad, and me, three generations, one rental car, one unhinged group chat.

And the thing this whole letter is named for.
February, Milano-Cortina: the Korean women's 3000m short-track relay. Two laps left, Italy out front on home ice, the building roaring against them — and Korea just goes. Slingshot on the final exchange. 4:04.014. Gold. Seventh relay title ever. Watch with sound. I have watched this more times than I'll admit in writing.
I am not a crier. I cry at this. In Korean you'd never call it my country. It's ์ฐ๋ฆฌ๋๋ผ. Ours. That's the nap — not burnout, not the merger. One afternoon where nobody's auditioning for anything. Worth it. See you next month.
