I'm considering an 8–10 day RV trip starting on July 28. We'd be flying from Los Angeles.

I was initially looking at the Oregon loop from Portland, but I'm also considering Alaska for the same dates. I plan to rent a 24-foot RV through Indie Campers. We'll be traveling with two kids (ages 3 and 8).

I've never done anything like this before. Is it too late to book campsites? It seems like many campgrounds are already fully booked. Is it always this difficult during the summer?

Which would you recommend: Oregon or Alaska? We've been to the Northern California coast once, but we've never been to Alaska.

It's hard to use it in "real time". It takes Claude Code 5-10 minutes for each even simple tasks like "commit push deploy". Not just today, I'm seeing this for weeks. I'm on the 20x plan and have only a couple sessions running.

I’m selling a B2B SaaS product to a law firm. After a good demo, they said they want to move forward with a paid pilot and asked for NDA, pilot pricing/scope, and longer-term pricing.

I sent a 3-month paid pilot offer.

Now they’re asking for ~7 days of short-term platform access to test before progressing the pilot.

My concern: the product needs some setup, examples, and feedback loops to evaluate properly. A rushed 7-day self-serve test may fail because they upload random docs, skip the training/review process, or don’t get activated. It also sets the expectation that we do onboarding and setup work for free.

At the same time, I don’t want to sound difficult or make the product seem services-heavy.

How would you respond? Would you allow the 7-day trial, push for the paid pilot, or offer some controlled middle ground?

I'm doing local races in SoCal. 3 laps. It takes me around 50–55 minutes. The race is intense, with constant ups and downs. My current strategy is to have 1 gel 10 minutes before and then one more during the second lap. I'm considering adding one more gel during the first lap.

Usually the second lap is the slowest one, both because of the constant 167+ average HR and fatigue.

Do you think 3 is too much? Will it fix my second lap? I have never used 3 gels before.
