Ben @nuro.dev · 26/05/2026Apple: “We need to verify you’re 18+” Me: “Urrrgghhh fine” Apple: “Your account is old enough, nevermind” Then what is the point of asking me?? 000
Ben @nuro.dev · 24/05/2026Revisiting Deno for the first time in a while and honestly I feel like more LLM's should be using it for one off scripts. Why don't they? 📄 One file for everything 📦 Import from npm & JSR using specifiers like `npm:` 🔒 Permissions required to access network, fs, etc 110
Ben @nuro.dev · 21/05/2026Building SOMETHING is easy now Building something GREAT still requires precision and an eye for detail 000
Ben @nuro.dev · 04/05/2026Spent my bank holiday weekend building a proof-of-concept native iOS Bluesky client. Very early days but super fun to experiment with Swift (UI) and AT Proto 2100
Ben @nuro.dev · 03/05/2026This is super cool! It kind of makes me want to build an Astro integration that, on deployment, publishes my markdown content collections as @standard.site documents. As Tim put it: One source of truth, many views. 160
Ben @nuro.dev · 29/04/2026Honestly spending time over the past few days learning more about AT Proto I understand why it's so important and how cool it really is! 110
Ben @nuro.dev · 03/01/2026Playing around more with Opus 4.5 & asked it to create me a TUI for Cloudflare R2. Less than an hour later I now have a SFE for it. 000
Ben @nuro.dev · 06/09/2025The @typescriptlang.org compiler API is an insanely powerful tool that few know exists or use. Likely because there is little to no documentation for it. But once you learn the basics it's actually amazing! 120

Ben @nuro.dev · 21/07/2025Wait, so to view “mature content” on Reddit in the UK I now need to give them a government ID or selfie proving I’m 18. But to view porn you can just click a “Yeah sure I’m totally 18” button?? 200

Ben @nuro.dev · 30/05/2025Waiting for the day people in the UK can sideload apps on iOS so I can finally sideload Apollo with my own API key. I miss that app 🫡 000
Ben @nuro.dev · 26/05/2025I also took a moment to try out DurableObjects & I like the premise of them. But I seriously feel like I am communicating with the ether. I have no way to view or control state stored. Metrics to track usage ofc but apart from that you would need to build your own tools to manage state / storage? 000
Ben @nuro.dev · 24/05/2025Spent some time today moving nuro.dev from @cloudflare-dev.bsky.social Pages to Workers + Assets and wow the observability is way more extensive! Super nice upgrade! 110
Ben @nuro.dev · 22/05/2025TIL about OTP time synchronisation / drift. Why did I learn about this? Windows. Windows date & time. Fucking Windows. On a side note though, shout out to: time.is 000
Ben @nuro.dev · 12/05/2025The fact cookie banners have now creeped their way into native apps, like Spotify, is hilarious and depressing 010
Ben @nuro.dev · 26/04/2025If AI tools are so good, why are they being shoe-horned into everything & forced down our throats with “PLEASE TRY ME!” Products don’t need to be fancy and in your face. They just need to be good. 120
Ben @nuro.dev · 21/04/2025If @deno.land KV is powered by SQLite under the hood, why not expose it natively? Why do I need to use `@db/sqlite`? Either that or I guess waiting for `node:sqlite` to go stable. 000
Ben @nuro.dev · 09/04/2025Building a homelab was the best choice I made years ago. It's the perfect place to try out & experiment with new tools & services. 130
Ben @nuro.dev · 08/04/2025Honestly, credit where it's due: @cloudflare.social has been killing it lately! 030
Ben @nuro.dev · 06/04/2025Expanding a storage pool means you need to repair a RAID array, which can take several hours, is wild! I knew it would take a while to repair, but damn! 010
Ben @nuro.dev · 30/03/2025I spent my weekend trying out Komodo, an alternative to Coolify, and ran into some issues running it with `docker stack`.

Ben @nuro.dev · 18/03/2025Had a fun idea for something to build with @deno.land tonight. After a bit of tinkering it looks like it works & it’s insanely cool 👀 I’ll do write up about it & share soon 100
Ben @nuro.dev · 03/03/2025ICL, for deploying quick scripts, @deno.land Deploy is pretty nice! Put together a quick script in an hour to run on a cron schedule to check the stock of a product & send me a push notification via LogSnag if it changes. 120
Ben @nuro.dev · 01/03/2025Apple Music could be better. So much better. With a bit of extra love. Some improvements to the macOS app, an official Windows app, etc, users like myself might actually ditch Spotify 100
Ben @nuro.dev · 01/03/2025Man I really do love @coolify.io! A friend asked me last night to build them a Discord bot to join voice chat, play a sound and leave. An hour later it was built. Add a Dockerfile. Spin up a VPS. Add it to Coolify. Connect the repo to Coolify. That's it! 🤯 000
