I'm brushing up landing page and marketing copy for #POSHTUI project before a new release. Can anyone roast it? www.poshtui.com

mise now works with compiled rubies It's an experimental feature, but it works great for me (not a single hiccup).

There is a good chance that I'll be getting an office (like a real one, not just one at home). How mighty have fallen? 10 years ago I was set to never go back to office again

Psss... Don't tell my wife, but I got her a surprise present.

Taking a week off from everything. Will be touching grass, doing home chores and sleeping as much as possible.

My son turned 8 today. He is an immigrant kid (with an Asian face) living in the Netherlands. I was really worried to give him away to dutch school, though that he will be an easy target for bullies. But the teacher told us, that everyone absolutely adores him.

The new docsets build system for POSH TUI stands on the shoulders of my friends (and rails) - GenevaDrive gem from Julik - Avo gem from @adrianthedev.com - Webhukhs gem is a joint effort from me and Julik Thanks to them, I can focus on business logic.

This is first time I'm working on a rails project with such a clean routes.rb file :)

7 months ago devtui repo became public. Small win, I guess. :)

Good evening from our small family.

Everyone should be using these.

Retro player.

ClawdBot is fully operational. It can manage my calendar, obsidian, it can use a browser now. It sent me reminders. Plans my itinerary. Contributes to my GitHub repositories. This bot is my bitch now.

Working on it.

Looking forward to Markdown as a default markup language. Stan does great work for rdoc!

Another pocket sized device arrived that will help me decouple from my mobile phone.

Previous year has been extremely turbolent and stressful. But in the end we came out stronger. I'm especially happy for my wife. She is growing her business organically and we both learn a ton about running businesses in the Netherlands.

We've reached 77% towards my goal that'll open source www.gh-dash.dev/enhance! 🎉

Next year I'm throwing myself to the mercy of luck once more. I've committed all my free time to just one project - poshtui.com It initially had a lot of good feedback, but I felt stuck with it. But after a break, I see a clear path forward with it. Just need to execute.

Bigger organizations are less about technical merit and more about political clout that is built up around ideas.

Maximizing savings, focusing on one product.

I have never felt so lost - my favorite coffee roaster changed their packaging art and coffee naming. It's like starting coffee journey from a blank state again

Got banned from WhatsApp, during that one time I actually decided to use it. Another reason not to use Meta software. Unfortunately it's used by a lot of people in Netherlands.

We gave up on car ownership in the Netherlands, car taxes here are insane. But we rarely need a car. So instead we rely on car-sharing. According to Greenwheel stats, this has saved us 2114 EUR this year.

I wrote a small POC AI tool, but my implementation sucked. But destiny brought me a new friend who took over technical implementation. It's already way better than my first prototype. Soon to be released!

Jolla dropped pre-orders for a new phone. Truly European build, privacy-focused and Linux based (with android compatibility layer). commerce.jolla.com/products/jol...

New pebble watch is so close! I can feel it...

We migrated from GitHub Issues to Fizzy. Before we had a garbage dump of issues, but not we're ruthlessly debating if we should not do most of them. That's the discussion I love to have!

Rails needs a help desk engine. A lot of it could be built quite fast on rails default components.

What can I say to a friend who is going through a divorce to cheer him up?

I'm at the crossroads. My family wants another kid and my wife is close to age where having kids will be hard or impossible. I recently started a business, it's doing fine. But have bigger ambitions. It doesn't feel that both of these things are compatible.

I grew up in a household without a father or husband figure. And learned by example, how important men are in our society and family. Please take a moment to appreciate the men around you. Happy men's day to all!

A local startup wbso.ai will be helping me apply for tax benefits so I can develop poshtui.com further.

Family - or, more generally, the people who depend on me - is probably the main reason that the self-destructive forces within me stay at bay.

For the next release it would be nice to roll out a couple of more 'tools' for LLM's. - Token counter - JSON to TOON converter Toon is a nice little format, that helps optimize token usage with LLM's. If anyone wants to take a stab at it - I'll be happy to see PR's.

devtui v0.30 is out! - 'JSON Repair' TUI and CLI interface was added. Really useful for fixing JSON output from LLMs. - Also multiple small performance improvements.

It's official! The beta release of Eloquent Ruby, 2nd edition is now on sale! pragprog.com/titles/eruby...

One of the best purchases this year. It's only a second week since I have it and I'm finishing my second book with it. Mostly read in small breaks.

My son reads comic books at the rate of 4 books a day. That is roughly 40 euro a day. I'm trying to calculate, which will happen first - I will run out of money or we will run out of comic books to buy?

"Never trust anyone who has not brought a book with them"

Version 0.14.1 is live. This brings some of my personal learnings from devtui project into poshtui. - better view transitions, better performance, better context sharing.

Not even a week has passed, since I bought this 400 euro toy for my son.

Will be releasing an update for poshtui.com TUI client today or tomorrow.

Ruby Central was a questionable organization with zero transparency even before all the drama started. I deeply care about the ruby ecosystem, but still give RC zero $. I would always actively advise against providing any funds to RC. Better spend that cash to improve the gems company relies on.

According to HTTP Archive, Next.js sites see the **worst** Core Web Vitals performance when compared to other popular frameworks httparchive.org/reports/tech...
