Me and the next two hours in Graphite Connect.

It's a tale of deployment. Deploy new feature; change makes response time go up. Get alerted. Deploy a fix, and it goes down — the end.

Sunday is for watching Tottenham-Chelsea and creating a new status page theme.

Today, I am playing around with improving the design for the status pages in the IsDown.app. I need to improve the header, I don't really like it; seems a bit off. Also, I made a mistake in the first version and should have set the same BG color for dark and light themes, so logos always look good.

I think it's time to refresh the IsDown logo. It took me 10 minutes to put together, and it served me well, but I think it's time to make a better one from someone who knows what they are doing 😅

The delight of seeing Bing bringing more and more traffic, but having no idea what I’ve done differently.

Does someone know anything about telescopes? I want to buy one for a kid. The price range would be around 50-100€. Any advice/recommendations?

Waking up and realizing that a server went down overnight... FML! Now, let's make sure it doesn't happen again.

How do you manage multiple email accounts? Do you unify everything in one? Do you manage each inbox separately? Which software do you use? Still trying to find the best way...

People are joining Bluesky because it seems more "true" than X, not just posting for engagement. People started building tools to measure their success/reach in Bluesky. These tools are made to gamify the experience, so I feel this will quickly become X.

I hired a designer for the first time, and I can only say why I didn't make it sooner. What they did in one day's work would take me ages, and I would never get to that level.

My biggest challenge isn't finding new marketing ideas. I usually fail to monitor them and give them the time to succeed or fail. My engineering brain is set on short-term rewards.

Tuesday evening is an excellent time to launch an outbound campaign. Is the 10th time the charm? It would be great to find someone to help me with this. Any recommendation?

Who is going to be the first to make a directory for Bluesky related tools?

For BF deals, instead of buying something new, I will take advantage and upgrade to yearly plans with a bigger discount.
