Oh, hello developer keycaps 😎
Short posts, images, bookmarks, that aren't detailed enough to be considered a blog post. This is something like my personal timeline.
Oh, hello developer keycaps 😎
Yesterday I visited the Mojo Jazz Café for the first time. I listened to Hohnen Ford, a singer I'd been recommended on YouTube a while back, and I was immediately captivated by her voice. Unfortunately, the venue is quite long and narrow, so you quickly find yourself in the back and can't see much, but the sound was good.
Recently, I wrote about how to use starter packs for Mastodon. Currently, this isn't possible natively, but it is via an external website. However, this feature may also be available directly in Mastodon in the future, and we can now send suggestions and other feedback.
Manuel describes exactly the behavior that I have already recognized in myself:
I suck at this. I genuinely don’t know how to rate things on a scale, which is why the vast majority of the books I rate are either 4 or 4.5.
Almost all of my books are rated four stars, sometimes three. Since five stars automatically make a book a favorite, that rarely happens. So I think the idea of a simplified rating system is a good one, and I might try it sometime.
Beeper’s MCP implementation lets you query your entire message history across iMessage (on MacOS), WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal, Instagram, and many more with natural language.
What could possibly go wrong...
As I am working on the new website of my band, I quite often look around for inspiration. It seems like the average band website comes with some sort of photo or pattern in the background with text put on it to prevent visitors from reading anything on there …
I was at the "Fabrik" yesterday and listened to Regener, Pappik, and Busch. I liked it, although as a drummer I have a few complaints, but that's just a quirk of mine.


I find the way Adam talks about the topic in the video very likeable and thoughtful; I liked that.
I published an experimental post. Normally, such texts end up in one of my notebooks and stay there, but I'd like to publish non-technical texts more often in the future. There will be separate channels and feeds for these.
It took me a while to work up the courage to publish this text, but here we are.
That's why I like my Kirby setup so much: I wanted to add the recent five episodes of our podcast and the recent five posts of our Sociabli blog to my homepage. And all I had to do was add this to the controller:
$serverSideStories = $site->rssPages('https://konzentrik.de/server-side-stories/feed')->sortBy('date', 'desc')->limit(5);
$sociabli = $site->rssPages('https://sociab.li/blog/feed.xml')->sortBy('date', 'desc')->limit(5);
And then on the front page, use my text-list snippet:
<?php snippet('list/textlist', ['articleList' => $sociabli, 'useLink' => true]); ?>
That's it!
