Working on a piece for the newsletter, this is a data point - smart people keep shrugging and saying “communities don’t like data centers because of ‘vibes’” etc when it’s really that people are in fact smart enough to know they are bad faith neighbors. It is *entirely rational* not to trust them.

I added a "now" page to my website! This was a thing I saw other indieweb folks doing, and it seemed like a great idea. There's also a "past" page linked as an archive of sorts 😎 #indieweb #blog #now ethanruhl.dev/now

Update: 11ty is awesome! It took a bit of reading to get my bearings with how the generator worked, but it seems like there's so much flexibility. Setting up Tailwind + DaisyUI was super easy as well! Super excited to add more posts moving forward! 🤩 Check out the new website here! ethanruhl.dev

After some frustration trying to extend the theme of my current site (using TailwindCSS + DaisyUI) in Hugo, I decided to start migrating my website over to @11ty.dev . I've heard great things, and it seems like it's much more customizable. Stay tuned for updates 😅 #webdev #indieweb

also if you're making a game and it has scenes: you want scenes to be a stack. you do not want there to be a "current scene" variable and you just go from scene to scene trust me it has to be a stack

IMPORTANT: For any artists/writers/etc etc, using Linktree to point people to their work, from 5 July, they'll be feeding all imagery you use on your landing page into DALL-E by OpenAI. I deleted my account this morning.

Writing blog posts is super relaxing. I do proper "artisan writing" where you type every single character by hand. I know, it sounds kinda crazy in 2026 but you should try it yourself. It's pretty chill. bitbra.in/blog

Hello everyone, I just made this starter pack for game devs who refuse to use generative AI. In any capacity at all, including for ideas or placeholders or code or inspiration or whatever excuses people have. No AI use, period. Let me know if you want added. go.bsky.app/6DRdowf

Anyway, a good tool I found out about is MubLoop. It's free and helps create seamless looping sounds. I tried it, works really well and is now part of my toolset for upcoming audio assets! Check it out: mubdev.itch.io/mubloop

agentic AI is so fucking funny. i run an absolutely *tiny* indie studio and i still ask people "hey could you run me through how this works?" all the time because knowing how things work is a vital part of creating a quality product how does that work with AI? people just go "idk the AI did it"?

The world is becoming harsher for transgender people right now. Darkness stretches before and behind them, and the pain is growing. Their wish remains simple — to love who they love and live true to themselves🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 This is why we must join hands and change the world with compassion.

so AI is supposed to revolutionize every single aspect of the reality as we know it, but it's something we shouldn't rely on for anything serious or important cause it's so fucking unreliable, do I get that right my dude ?
