Hey everybody! I know this is an inconvenience, and I'm sorry for that, but I now use Mastodon from my own domain and as such would love if you'd follow @boony instead of this account, which I will soon delete.

After 4 hours or so trying to fix all the errors when running Mastodon, I decided to give up and go with @mastohost

It seems the problem is at Mailgun's side. Emails are being accepted, but never delivered. Google tells me Mailgun sometimes is an asshole. I opened a ticker so let's see what's up.

So I got Mastodon running .. after some heavy fuckery with nginx. Now it seems it doesn't send any emails ..

Turns out, installing Mastodon is no simple feat.

Also, in a guest to own my online presence, looking into hosting Mastodon myself.

I have been thinking about updating my brand name for a while now and I have finally done it! It will take me a bit to transition, but in the search of a shorter and more approachable name you may now refer to me as Boony, your friendly neighborhood code monkey.

Well, if a reason, then SPA's suck at being visible in search engines, and being linked in places, without double the effort (fallback).

I built it on ClojureScript to learn the craft for work, where I use mainly ClojureScript, but a public facing website shouldn't really be a SPA imo.

In other news, I have decided to rewrite my personal website from ClojureScript to just Clojure. For no particular reason.

After a year of living in Spain, I am very unhappy with the life quality Spain can provide me (coming from north of EU), so much so that I asked my employer if I can become full-time remote and move back to Estonia. The answer I got was a "probably yes" so fingers crossed!

When 3 people I follow are having a full on conversation in my home feed, I guess that means I have a social circle? @specter @bvdbasch @eletious

@specter hey! Told my PO today about you applying for the Clojure position. Maybe helps move your resume in a positive direction a bit.

It's damn hard to get a decent .com domain these days. I think I may just give in to one of these new gTLDs instead.

Build 3 of How Do Stranger will come with some long-needed design instead of plain old HTML. I'll post screenshots as it develops.

It's Friday people! You know what this means right? Only two more days after this till work! We can do this!

And build 2 of How Do Stranger, the website analytics tool I'm building on the side, is now live!

Been fighting all day with legacy shit that Just Doesn't Work ©.

Beginning to question my competence.

Build 2 is .. done? Will check tomorrow with rested eyes and if yes, release time!

The way I use state right now in How Do Stranger is nightmare inducing. I swear in build 3 I will refactor it all to use re-frame.
