I make cool projects and create content about (mostly) technical topics. I also rant way too much about making it remotely possible to get around without a car.

To facilitate the Scream Cipher's adoption in our daily lives, I've created a tool that lets you encrypt and decrypt messages using it. Enjoy!

Honestly, you don't have to do all of that. Get rid of parking and give an alternative mode of transport. I took the train 2 hours today when driving would have been an hour because I didn't want to think about parking.
i wonder how much of Americans' views on driving vs. transit would change if they had to pay for gas/insurance/etc every time they turned on the engine

"i'm not paying $5 to take the train to work twice a day when i can just drive" is a genuine opinion held by so many people

Twitter implemented a new feature last night that displayed the country an account is in. So many of the ‘America First’ accounts were from foreign countries that they had to disable the feature within hours. 🙄

It's on apt. It's literally on Cargo. It's on DockerHub with ads. It's literally on nuget. You can probably find it on snap. Dude it's on portage. It's a Homebrew original. It's on pacman. You can download it on nixpkgs. You can go to pkgsrc and watch it. Log onto the Windows Store right now.

@tangled.org is such a great role model for projects in this moment

- actually does the thing: useful, accessible
- innovates/differentiates at *product* level: stacked review
- hybrid at proto layer (git and AT), pulls in bsky profile data
- built in europe by small amitious team

I should make an ATProto package registry (I will probably have zero time to do this)
Yeah, exactly. This was a decision made a long time ago that made sense back then because doing account management securely is very hard. Now it might make sense to do something else, but the assumptions are entrenched..
