Experimenting with creating my own LLM coding benchmark The first test-run was already very interesting, but the tests need some improvements to make the results more meaningful. Later I plan to run it with different sub-agent combos. Maybe I'll also add the results to my website 🤔 #BuildInPublic

I just vibe-coded a little admin panel to see some stats and insights for statusscout.dev. It actually is used more than I expected. Now i need to get the third number from 0 to 1 😊 #buildinpublic

Just finished the first version of my amp project - it's able to control music on my sonos speakers via buttons and nfc cards 🥳 It was super interesting and I really learned a lot. I'll work on a small blog post of my process, the hardware and the code - but I guess this will take a while 😅

Just mixed my own ClubMate like drink, which is less sweet, based on a recipe I found on hacker news*. I would give it a 6/10 which is pretty solid for the first version. Looking forward to customizing the recipe on the next try 😁 * news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4774...

I had a lot of fun lately tinkering with a little hardware project. It will be a small amp that plays music on my wifi speakers once a nfc album card is inserted 🎵 First test version is working - now i have to refine a lot of stuff and finalize it 😊

Just switched my personal website from Next.js to Astro: Next.js: 1.5 MB transferred with 340 kB of JS Astro: 400 kB transferred with 3 kB JS (my umami analytics script) Also, pagespeed insights went from 96% to 100% - now I only need to fix the a11y issue to have all on 100 😊 #buildinpublic

I've spent quite some time today to set up this little e-paper dashboard. There's still room for improvement, but I'm pretty happy already 😊

I've been working on accounts for statusscout.dev lately. I don't have as much time as I'd like to, so it's slow progress - but still progress :) Here's a small preview on the recent state 👀 My goal is to finish it till end of October #BuildInPublic

Built a website health dashboard in my spare time inspired by needs at work - it includes various cron checks, custom test flows, and error notifications. Thinking about refining it, open-sourcing it and putting it online for others to use. But still a lot to do until it is ready :) #buildinpublic

wtf Without any notification, vercel put all my side projects down because I reached some limit... Upgraded to the pro plan for this month to quickly get them up again, but I'm definitely moving away from vercel and to my own server again. #buildinpublic

Twitter/X is now completely dead for me. I was still lurking occasionally but since today I'm being redirected to x com. This is seems to be broken because of mobile Firefoxs Tracking protection 😅

Okay, it's already done with version 0.1.2 😄 it was pretty straightforward. You can now use the "search" option to display a feed for a hashtag :)

TIL, there is a native String function "localeCompare" that helps you sort ISO date strings
