Looking for a reliable partner to bring your project to the next level? Whether it’s development, design, security, or ongoing support—I’d love to chat and see how I can help.
Your keyboard and pointing device are the two tools you touch more than anything else on your desk — more than your monitor, more than your editor. A developer types for a living, and after enough years of it, the wrong keyboard and mouse stop being a minor annoyance and start being a wrist problem […]
If you’re a developer in Europe who works from home and runs a homelab, your chair and desk are the two pieces of hardware you touch more than any server, keyboard or monitor. You’ll spend thousands of hours in that seat, and a scary amount of expensive gear is going to live on that desk. […]
Live streaming today means signing up for Twitch, YouTube Live, or another Big Tech platform. You get an audience, sure, but you also get ads you cannot control, algorithmic recommendations pushing viewers toward competing streams, rules that change overnight, and a chat system that ties your community to someone else’s database. For a hobbyist streamer, […]
Let’s be real about email: it’s out of control. The average person gets over 120 emails a day. Newsletters you forgot you subscribed to, receipts from three years ago, notifications from every app that ever got your address, and somewhere in there — buried under all of it — maybe four or five messages from […]
For the longest time, a kiosk meant one thing: a screen bolted to a wall, waiting for someone brave enough to poke it. A menu. A button or two. If you were lucky, a card reader. The whole device sat there passively, doing nothing until a human chose to interact with it, and most humans […]
Last update: 25.07. I know a lot of text, but that is how I process ideas and iterate fast! You add an animated GIF to a Penpot prototype, open it in Google Chrome, and… nothing. The GIF sits there like it’s waiting for written permission to move. Then you wiggle the cursor or interact with […]
Spend a lot of time with Vikunja (cubicFUSION Vikunja Importer) lately, one thing that it is currently missing is an easy way to style the interface. Especially the task view is just one long page without any clear section separation. LET’S TWEAK IT Here a quick starting point to tweak the style quickly. You can […]
Big Snagit fan, but for some quick screenshots I needed something more flexible. This is a simple screenshot extension, that uses the native chrome APIs. Work in progress, but does its job ;)
Font licensing is wild. Proxima Nova — one of the most-used typefaces on the entire web — will run you $65 per style, and a full family license easily clears $300. Futura? Brandon Grotesque? Circular (yes, Spotify’s font)? We’re talking hundreds of dollars before you’ve typed a single character. For personal projects, indie dev work, […]
So you want to set up email on a subdomain. Maybe you’re trying to route support@help.yourdomain.com to your helpdesk, or you want newsletters@mail.yourdomain.com to run through your ESP without torching your main domain’s reputation. Whatever the reason, you’ve landed on the right page. MX records for subdomains are one of those DNS topics that seem […]
