ur still an artist if u don’t release ur work.
ur still a writer if u don’t publish a piece.
art is still art even in private.

#Miniflux might call itself minimalistic, but nearly every darned feature I’d want is in there. (probably my needs are minimalistic too?)
And then some.


Today I marked something article as read by mistake, and then wanted to go look for it. Wondered if Miniflux let me search.
A look through its documentation told me it did!


And it’s pretty fast too! (powered by #PostgreSQL search)


I love my #RSS feed reader more and more everyday :)

I was wondering why the Rust static site generator was called #Zola, until I realised the Golang based generator I use was called #Hugo


Well played!

Writing gives poor thinking nowhere to hide.


When your invisible thoughts are made visible, you are forced to confront them as they are, not as you wish them to be. You can’t simply take a few minutes here and there, get the gist of the problem, and expect to have clear thinking and unique insights.


Good thinking, like good writing, demands patience.

Good writing is expensive, but poor writing costs a fortune.


Poor writing transfers the work from the writer to the reader. Good writing, on the other hand, nearly reads itself, allowing the reader to spend more time thinking about the ideas than pulling out meaning. Poor writing might be one of the single biggest invisible costs in organizations.

an audio jukebox was the first think i looked for when I moved from MacOS to Linux. it took a bit of trying different players, but there’s been no looking back after Quod Libet.
