I started coding back in 2004 with my first C++ course at University. I haven’t stopped since. For work I’m mostly using C#, SQL, HTML, CSS3, and JQuery. For fun I switch back to vanilla JS and try out zany ideas. Like, how far can you push just HTML and CSS for a social media like experience and not require JavaScript (see Lillihub). Right now I’m working on my blog/game hybrid idea. Who knows what I’ll be trying to do next week 🤪

Supabase, Deno and Server Side Rendering 🧝 22 Dec 25

Mini Coding Adventure: a personal web desktop 🌬️ 8 Jul 25

So last night when I was sitting down and watching an episode of “The Mole” on Netflix, inspiration struck and dusted off one of my old web projects that I had kicking around. At one point in time, my blog had a desktop theme. I really enjoyed it but then I went back to my old standby of …

17 Mar 25 🪙 #meta-jots

I made some progress on my little solo rpg quine idea this weekend. I’m using the hex generation rules from the welshpiper.com. I also picked up the icons from the HPS Cartography Kit. I’ve gotten as far as marking the major and minor encounters.

15 Mar 25 🕸️ #meta-jots: This weekend I’m thinking about building a html quine (like Tiddlywiki) for a hexcrawl inspired from the dungeons and dragons expert rulebook. I envision something to play solo and explore 🤔
