    To be honest I implemented Lettermint before I migrated to Scaleway, so I didn't even look at TEM. At that point I was more than happy though. And I like to support my fellow Dutch…

    Well this is nice. Apparently I reached some limits (thanks all), and had to pay Cloudflare more. Fair I guess, although some warning would've been nice. Tried multiple payment opt…

    My website is absolutely for me. Anyone who wants to visit is welcome though, I put it online for a reason. (You're also free to move along for that matter, that's up to you.) The …

    The special thing is that it’s decentralized. I know this discussion will not resolve and I’m not a blockchain zealot. I do think it’s an elegant decentralized storage system for a…

    A generative system can produce an infinity of outputs. An art platform combined with a blockchain allows you to store a finite number of outputs from the same system definitively …

    Generative systems often produce random outputs every time it runs. When run in a browser, an output just vanishes after a refresh and is usually never found again if you haven't s…

    I really like generative art. It's part intellectual ingenuity, part aesthetics. I've only realized later that it had a name, but since I've had my hands on a computer, I've been m…

    Show HN: Monokai Pro for JetBrains – lifetime license

    After receiving feedback, I decided to offer a lifetime license for Monokai Pro, in addition to the subscription model. The freemium model still exists, at $1 / month, and the life…

    Photography and algorithmic art are exactly my thing. In the past few years, I’ve been deeply exploring generative art, though I prefer calling it "Algorithmic Art" since "generati…

    That's untrue. I've created https://monokai.pro , to my knowledge the first commercial theme. It's been going strong for years now. People are willing to pay for nice things. Espec…
