Altruistic anarchist, down-to-earth, independent hobby astronaut πŸ§‘β€πŸš€ and amazingly lively, passionate web developer in the stand against the technocrats. Also founder of nitropage.org, the FOSS visual website editor.

Maybe we should take a second look at OpenMandriva πŸ˜‚

As my life savings are reaching the deadline, next year will decide, if I can continue working on my dreams and thus living a fulfilling life, being the human I wanna be on this earth, or if my soul shall find a new form.

It's hard to find motivating words after watching my loved ones wandering for years from one cancer to the next one, mixed with strokes and pneumonia, coupled with my own illness phantosmia, destroying my life non-stop, almost daily since ten years. I just hope that the negative karma my bloodline must have stacked in the past, finally will be resolved next year and that the pain will end. Writing this while the most important human in my life is laying in the next room with another pneomonia, ill since christmas.

Good god there exists Nostr, where disturbing texts like this can be published without directly being reported to big brother psychiatry.

I wish the true freedom lovers here all the best for next year, and for those who also are in lots of pain, that it goes to the devil it came from.

Was it worth it πŸ˜‚?

Good night πŸ˜…πŸ™‹β€β™€οΈ

With the left moving from Twitter to Bluesky instead of Nostr, it does not only show that they deeply crave for censorship, but also that they ultimately value it higher than the software being open source. Seeing that most #foss web developers went to Bluesky during the exodus, hurts a lot. The technocrats are playing their brainwashing game extremely well...

The only winner of our race to the AGI is the AGI.

Have you ever had to touch 89 files to implement a certain feature? #webdev

Kinda weird that christianity doesn't have a commandment forbidding authoritarianism and technocracy, isn't it?

Uncreative opportunists seem to like it πŸ™ˆ

I feel I need to ventilate some things I'm struggling with. As a indiepreneur I don't have many professionals around me with who I can share my daily struggles which I'm handling now. I'm aware it's a sort of a luxury position where the current fricton is coming from. It's because I've said too much yes to some responsabilties. I'm managing 4 client (Drupal) projects at this moment and all of them are asking for decent amount of my attention. Integrating new features, updating existing features, questions how things work, bugfixes etc. Normally their demand of them is steady. But as always, at the end of the year things are stacking up. It's no surprise that you can't manage their demands so it's the expection of my output to them I have to manage. It's the output I create for the value I deliver. Especially one project is getting all of my attention because I'm building a complete new commerce rental system with Drupal for campers. There is a deadline involved there, I've one month left to build it and have it tested.

For me it's very challenging to manage those expectations and basicly saying no to things in a friendly way. But offcourse, this also takes time...

With this said, there is another project which is not actively demanding anything from me (it's not a kind of a customer client): Nostr-PHP. My work pace on this project is lacking, but it's the damn thing I love the most to work on πŸ’œ

So what is this? What do I feel?

It feels like cognitive dissonation. If I follow my intrinsic motivation I can work on Nostr-PHP and other Nostr stuff for whole days. If I follow my ratio, it's all the client work what has to be done (and is mostly also paying the bills).

Anyway, now I ventilated this it's time to go back building stuff βš’οΈ βš’οΈ βš’οΈ

One thing I know of myself is that when the pressure is really high, I'm able to finish stuff rapidly for a short period of time.

Maybe its also the point, that what you are making with a passion is not used by your clients, so essentially your passion work isn't appreciated in the same way as your daily business work πŸ€”?

So all of the life/business success coaches tell you to speak with convidence, but the more you know, the more you understand how little you know, ergo you need to be able to convince people how little you know πŸ˜‚.
