some notes on the last articles/ebooks I read #digitalprivacy paco.leaflet.pub/3lwxwzgydac2v

wish I could be back here right now…

they just came out with a new type of razzle dazzle so you don't need to give them the "old" razzle dazzle anymore. because there is a new one.

has anyone tried the Omarchy #arch setup by DHH?

ahah nice!

I spent 10 minutes explaining Bluesky to a gen-z producer, and at the end, he goes...so like Minecraft for social?

just finished setting up @ghost.org to try out the new features… super simple and fun to use. big props to the team for making it feel this smooth, I can only imagine how much work goes on behind the scenes!

some days at work I'm feeling like

great piece of writing 🌠

this morning I vibe coded an RSS Reader on lovable.dev result? simple, low value and low effort product that does nothing special/new it also took away all the fun creating something for myself. I don't hate this, but I think it's far from being a reliable tool for technical users

found a great article about learning in public. it encourages to share your learning path and discoveries. I decided to take on the challenge, but I still am in the planning phase... anyone has any advice? btw I wrote a short post with more details and all the references -> dub.sh/CQwmERq

“A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good; then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's neighbor — such is my idea of happiness.” —Leo Tolstoy

That moment when you realize you've been building in complete darkness... I spent 9 months teaching myself to code, poured my life savings into an app, and watched it die because I had no idea what users were actually doing. #LearningInPublic #IndieDev
