OMG blown away right now … with my digital friend Claude, I was able to implement a pretty snazzy caching strategy using Deno KV (their edge key/value store) and properly set http caching headers including ETags 🎉 Find the code here: github.com/nilsborg/… #deno #fresh #indieweb

Uhhh got a deployed version of the site on Deno Deploy: nilsb-org-r97z19fs1sc7.deno.dev — pretty cool! Now I just have to figure out how to handle content updates/caching.. #deno #fresh #indieweb
Man typescript drives me nuts sometimes … the handler function in Deno Fresh gets the data, has the right types applied and then in the function to render the page, types are “any” for the data coming in from props … grrrr #deno #fresh #indiehacking
If anyone’s interested in the code, check that out here: github.com/nilsborg/…
Alright! New Deno Fresh project ✅ Connection to Notion Integration ✅ Getting JSON on my page ✅ Pretty good start I’d say! #deno #fresh #indieweb
uhhh while standing in the kitchen to start prepping dinner for the family I thought “hmmm I really wanna try Deno Fresh and it would be awesome to just grab posts from Notion …”. Sooo let’s do it! Starting a hack session! #deno #fresh #indieweb
One of my favorite UI fails in Mac OS is the fact that the “Eject” and “Erase” options for any external media are directly next to each other in the context menu … 🫠 #ui #mac #ux
Frozen lakes are a spooky thing no? Everything’s so peaceful when it’s so cold, no movement anywhere but still you know that you don’t know how thick the ice is or how deep the lake is.. very moody all in all :) #photography #nature #blackandwhite
Huuuiii everything’s frozen over here (Offenbach am Main, Germany) and I love it! 🥰 So peaceful in the forest during my inspirational walks in the morning. Loving that new habit by the way! I wander around with the camera and sometimes speak with Ai Claude to plan podcast scripts #photography
Amazing sunset but freezing cold -4° in Offenbach, but the sun is shining. 🥶☀️🌄 A day like these I really love my morning walking routine routine just talking to my friend Clau and my phone planning new podcast episodes. This is just really nice mode of working. #Productivity
Focus is an interesting concept is it not? The fact that you can really only sorta see one thing at a time.. fascinating somehow. I’m usually not this type of person who takes out of focus images deliberately but in this case, I like the blurry version a little better even. Wdyt? #photography #night
Speaking of building your own tools: My friend and co-founder Daniel made this thing which one can interact with ChatGPT style but it’s aware of aaaaallll the content we put over the years pulled from @sanity.io ‘s content lake. It even uses custom embeddings to be efficient with tokens.. so cool.
Making your own tools is a really satisfying experience. Kinda had this expectation that something would probably not realllly work out in the end but I kept pushing for it, and now I can just happily record any meeting and have it be summarized and sent to our notion db — 🪄 #diy #hacking
Working on a little script that takes a locally generated Whisper transcript and gets a summary from ChatGPT: github.com/nilsborg/…
Ouuhh just worked with Deno for the first time. Man … I was hoping it would be exactly like this 😅. From my very minimal POV it’s really everything I wanted from NodeJS in the past years 🙌.

Here’s another shot from the Palmengarten at night. I’d like to point out that I can’t take credit for the picture as my 7 year old took that shot. I cleaned a bit but the whole composition was his idea. #photography #night
Another visit to one of my favorite places, the Palmengarten in Frankfurt. This time in the evening to see their annual lights festival. #photography #night #lights
Spoiler alert: You know who Seinfeld ends with the group being in jail for all the despicable things they did? When I interact with car drivers in Germany — where a car is almost as valuable as your the first born in other cultures — I sorta get how you just have to become cynical like Jerry and co.
It’s no secret to people who know me that I don’t really care for cars. It’s not the cars fault.. it was a fine invention and all but they just bring out the worst in people. Today on the local supermarket lot an SUV parked on two spots. I was told „otherwise people dent my 150k€ car“. Ok Boomer…

Fires in tents are always something.. especially for the city folks like ourselves 😇
Corner ornament in the entry hall of Schloss Freudenberg in Wiesbaden, Germany. My wife and I got married in at this marvelous place which holds a little surprise in our very corner. Every time we go back we still find something new. Absolute gem to discover! #photography
Big entry hall of Senckenberg Museum in Frankfurt and blurry view out onto the street. #photography #museum
Family and Christmas … ain’t I right? But it’s not only family, it’s just generally people wanting to spend time together or not. And my new working mode for the holiday is: lets just get those peeps together who are at least kinda interested :) lets say on a scale from 0 to 10, at least a 5.
On coming out the other end of the tunnel (as an entrepreneur): Today marks the last day of work for our little agency Dinghy. For this year of course. We’ll absolutely be around next year! And that sorta leads me over to the main point here: we’re going to be around next year. And that’s something I’m really proud of. We’ve started this journey around 3 years …
You know when you pop open your trusty dev tools to apply a little creativity to other people’s sites? Today I found this applied to a pricing table with the typical 3 plans and I almost shot coffee out my nose from the shock! 😂 I mean .. what?! #cas #grid #webdev

Heard the other day that journaling makes you a better writer. Makes sense I’d say, so I’ll give that a whirl going forward. And instead of sticking all that into a journaling app on my phone, I’ll just take you along for the ride. Running a family and an agency at the same time could come up :)
This one’s from our local museum for natural history, the so called Senckenberg Museum. I think I’m usually not the type of person who gets exited about fossils, but I kinda love this shot .. when I look at it, I get the feeling of „wow so that’s been burried for millions of years“.. #photography
One of the places I can just always visit again is the Palmengarten in Frankfurt, Germany. Litewrally translated into English that means “Palm Garden”. Inside of this marvelous park there’s a huge indoor jungle called the “Palmenhaus” (Palm House). Such a cozy place to …
Alright! Matilda is done making her little half pipe. It’s white and yellow too! First ever experience woodbending and I’m very happy I had binged so many wood working channels before to remember that a vegetable steamer can work wonders :) #woodworking

Ah by the way don’t try to glue up a wood bending project with tape alone .. doesn’t hold up :)) #woodworking

Just start (building a little half pipe): Our house was chosen by a Christmas gnome and she’s building a half pipe 🫠. This is one of those ideas where I got super excited and tell me things like: „how hard can it be? It’s tiny! That’ll be quick“. Of course it’s not quick! But I think this is my strategy to just lie to myself to just get …

Sometimes … the universe provides: So … I’m not a religious person really but I can totally appreciate that different people believe in different views of the world. I’m more comfortable with the whole “science can explain it all, and if it can’t then we just didn’t understand that thing yet” side …
I love when light turns a rather ugly something into an interesting something … #street #photography
Don’t you just love misty mountains? #landscape #photography
So, this really auto-cross posts?
Wooho finally getting micro blogging set up!
