Productive day:
- Both dogs walked and knackered out.
- Got the mac mini running proxmox and portainer (though, tailscale seems to be a whole other thing).
- Landed on a deathwatch paint scheme I actually don't hate, so i can finally get my Kill Team painted up.
- Making pizza from scratch 🍕

Anyone running a home server and got reccomendations? Really wanna try Proxmox but not sure if my 2012 Intel Mac Mini can handle it, might just stick Ubuntu server + Tailscale on there as it's what I know.

I'm looking for my next opportunity in the front-end space 🌐
I've worked at some great companies: Hugging Face, V7, Appwrite, and Significa.
I've built NPM packages with 400k downloads/week, and am an avid open-source contributor.
Let me know if you want to work together!

That being said, if they WANT to dance on TikTok, I've no problem with that 😂
"Influencing" and "content creation" becoming the only way to build a business has resulted in businesses that you really don't want to fall pray to the attention economy _having_ to pander to it, to event get noticed.
I don't want my plumber having to do dances on TikTok.

My niece and sister asked for a Wishlist for things i'd like for Christmas, so i've dropped a few sensible priced things on there.
But i've also dropped a £1600 3D printer on there because you never know when someone might wanna get you lil' treat 😉

Losing a battle with Laravel, Vite, and Tailwind V4.
It's not regenerating styles when we update Vue components, but it's doing it when we update Svelte components.
And i can't figure out why 😫

Anyone got any good/bad about Proton Mail - consolidating a bunch of emails in one place and deactivating old Google Workspace accounts and trying to decide wether to use them or fastmail.

Does being in meetings all day turn anyone else's brain into a soft, wet, gelatine-like substance? Even if they're good meetings, i still find myself unable to think properly after a few hours of them.
