AI taking a coffee break? 🤪

Being from Denmark these days, makes me seriously question my own reliance on American big tech. It feels like "vendor lock-in" on a different level.

Today i shipped:

lightmetrics v0.0.11

Jens (2):
feat: initial send out status messages on bluesky
fix: bug with duplicate timestamp blocks

Nice setup 🔥
Let it be a productive day!

It sounds more of a distraction than anything for an indie dev.

As an indie dev, use whatever you're already comfortable with. TOON? A cost savings encoding format for LLMS? Certainly niche. It sounds

I have consolidated all my hosting on Hetzner (alpine linux). It simplifies deployments but creates a single point of failure. None of the services are mission critical though.

And ship and share more often to keep momentum and spirits up is the goal.

Yea. I'm getting better at documenting the goals and ideas. That does help a lot. With limited time you forget the bright ideas you had weeks past and then loose track of direction. Causing you to get another bright idea and jump on that instead 🙈. Smaller milestones is a good suggestion.

I managed to re-style my dialogs last night too. Things start to look more coherent. #progress #buildinpublic

I made a button. Mimicking NES.css css framework but for ebitengine game engine. It's not much but it's progress. #progress #buildinpublic

Fighting a cocktail of combination of imposter syndrome and procrastination on my side projects. How do you fight it?

just "shipped" my self hosted analytics software v0.0.1. Starting with a http middleware for golang and a file format for temporary storage.

I am still looking for a name. And the part that presents the data 😅

It is meant for builders that wants to self host with a low footprint

Reading Tony dinh's new indie hacking book. It really tickles my desire to give indie hacking a serious shot.

But there's progress. A dialog box telling everybody this is still in early stage.

A grid. Is the next step to something. Progress status: 🐢 #buildinpublic #indiehacking

I read an article the other day called "ship nothing" So here i am. Documenting my progress of shipping nothing. Until it becomes something. #buildinpublic #indiehacking
