Back in January, I started an experiment⁠ by turning this website into a social media timeline-like experience.

Sometimes, shit gets real and you really have to work towards a specific goal.

Imagine you open your inbox one morning, and you are greeted by an email with a ginormous attachment.

At the latest since I first played the awesome Mini Metro⁠ game, I’ve been interested in metros.

Last Tuesday, I completed my latest PACT⁠: Committing at least once a day to the Morgenblau repo⁠ (the RSS reader I’m building) and posting about it over on Bluesky⁠ for 30 days.

A simple trick I picked up from the Runna⁠ app: If you want to increase your cadence, drive your arms faster.

Sebastian shared this paragraph in his recent devlog⁠ that resonated with me: Focus is the new bottleneck.

Since I’m still in the process of developing my own⁠, I currently have to rely on other RSS readers.

A couple of weeks back, I finished my first 30-day PACT⁠.

Today is the last day of my writing PACT⁠ where I set out to write and publish a blog post every day for 30 days.

It’s now been five days since Naida⁠ moved in with us.

A while back, I published a post called “The joy of writing online⁠”.

I had a pleasant surprise in my Bluesky timeline today.

We are lucky that the weather right now is really beautiful.

Today was a big day!

This is one of the simplest but also most impactful productivity tips I introduced into my daily life.

During my youth, I was a soccer player.

I’m a couple of days late to Apple’s 50-year anniversary⁠.

In the town where I live, we have this great sports facility with multiple soccer fields, a skate park, a basketball court, a sports hall and a tartan track.

Last night the clocks were moved forward by one hour.

Related to yesterday’s post⁠, I want to list a couple of quick and easy ways to get “a small win”.

If you’re watching only one video today, make it this one.

Yesterday, I got to watch one of the most anticipated films of the year on the big screen.

The Pudding⁠ is one of those sites I love to browse regularly and always leave with a feeling of delight (and new insights).

The crazy stuff that is going on over on the other side of the Atlantic has made one thing clear: Too many people (and businesses), me included, are way too dependent on US big tech companies.

“Writing online” can mean many different things.

This is an observation I regularly have during everyday life.

It’s already past 8 pm and if I’m honest, if it weren’t for my writing PACT⁠, I wouldn’t be writing this post.

This weekend, I finished reading “The Art of Spending Money⁠” by Morgan Housel.

For the longest time, I was an article hoarder and jumped from one read-later app to another.

In the hectic world that software development seemingly has become, reading “The Joy of Building Slow⁠” by Andy from !

Back when I first started designing and coding things for the web, one of my favorite channels was the one from a designer named Mackenzie Child⁠.

It’s been almost two years since launching this blog⁠.

Although the occasion is very devastating⁠, I still found the quote below worth sharing.

Recently, I listened to this great interview with the creator of Claude Code, Boris Cherny: If you don’t know, Claude Code is currently widely considered the gold standard when it comes to agentic engineering.

Ok, hear me out here.

Last Sunday, approximately 1.5 years after its launch⁠, my old website got retired1, and this new one got published.

If I had to choose one direction, that I could push the IndieWeb towards for the next couple of years, it would be the social route.

It’s the beginning of December again, which means Spotify Wrapped has just dropped.

Yesterday, I participated at the Lausanne Marathon – my first-ever race at that distance.

I’m currently on and off designing and building v2 of this website.
