I'm sick of having to decide between using cloud software and using local software. Cloud software so often needs subscriptions, and if the company dies I lose access to my data. Local software isn't collaborative. I don't want to email files around to myself, or think about versions. So I'm building a software platform for local first applications on top of CRDTs. Its called Replica, though we haven't talked much ab…

I'm trying to make a dent in the UX of crypto. Currently, it really really sucks. The first thing we've built is https://peanut.to - a way to pay people with just a link. Happy to take feedback and suggestions!
Currently growing https://www.fetcher.page/
We pulled it off, and it has been growing and working great for those using it.
Hoping to expand it to be a deeper part of the development lifecycle, and having a deeper integrations with things such as datadog.
Depends on what devs are looking for really, but we have a base direction to start with and are going strong.
Found a job and moved to Spain, so will spend 2023 practicing Spanish and some Catalan. Job is related to climate change, so will continue mixing workflow managers, climate experiments, HPC, Python, data analytics. Other than that continue moderating r/functionalprogramming and r/fuzzylogic on reddit, add more Brazilian Portuguese expressions to https://speaklikeabrazilian.com , and try to release Apache Commons Imag…
So I'm planning to make a custom (software) solution. A small set of focused, minimal, productive and interesting apps in a controlled, noise-free environment. I want her to use the computer as a TOOL to enhance and complement her daily activities, not as a toy, an addiction or an entertainment.
(Think a PICO-8 high-res system for general usage, not only for making games.)
(And yes, she would be able to alternatively watch cartoons and play videogames, but not in this "work/learn" computer)
So if I have to build all this myself on my little spare time, it will probably take me the whole year.. :sweat-laugh:
I wish you a healthy and joyful 2023, dear reader.
Working at a still-feels-new-to-me job as Graphics Director for Opinion at The New York Times. Our small team publishes arguments and guest essays supported by visual evidence, like these: - https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/10/29/opinion/scien... - https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/09/08/opinion/urban... - https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/07/20/opinion/ancie...

A rebrand is also likely on the way, as the concept has proven to work.

My oldest daughter will turn 8 this year. These days I'm planning which would be best computer/software/OS for her (if any), but nothing in the market fits my requirements as a father. There is so much noise, distraction and overall bullshit in today's computers that I don't think it is healthy or appropriate for her. So I'm planning to make a custom (software) solution. A small set of focused, minimal, productive an…
I followed you on Twitter... but is there somewhere I can subscribe to hear more about this project in particular?
