mox Mail Server

Published on in 🔗 Links

I currently use Purelymail for email. It’s very cheap and does everything I need (“purely email”). I’m also happy that I’m free of all the headaches of having a good IP reputation and setting everything up so that my mail doesn’t end up in junk folders.

New professional website

Published on in 💬 Micro

I’m always programming on my blogging software, so today I decided to do something different. With the help of ChatGPT, which wrote the basic HTML and CSS template, I created a new resume website, which is basically a copy of everything I put on my LinkedIn profile.

I am not looking for a new job, but I was thinking about making better use of my jlelse.com domain, which I have already renewed for many more years. And that seems like a good idea.

And it was actually quite fun to write some basic HTML and CSS and host the site files on Bunny.net. There I use Bunny Storage, Bunny DNS and of course Bunny CDN. 🐰

As for my job: I finally passed the probationary period. 😄

I’m a bit of an indecisive (and frugal) person sometimes.

Nice, the number of GoBlog users is growing! 🤓 The next step is a growing number of GoBlog developers. It would be great to have more people giving advice on how to improve the code. 😅 Any senior Go devs out there?

How I archive my favorite TV show to get rid of Amazon Prime

Published on in ✍️ Posts

I’m a fan of the German TV series “Notruf Hafenkante”, which is shown on the public broadcaster ZDF and is also available on their website. New episodes are released weekly, and older episodes are also made available on a regular basis. After a few months, however, they are no longer available for free. At the moment I have to buy an extra subscription for a Prime Video Channel to be able to watch all the old episodes. But that makes me dependent on Amazon, and I don’t like that.

Yet another AI application

Published on in ✍️ Posts

AI is currently finding its way more and more into various software. There is ChatGPT, which sometimes feels like an all-knowing human, DeepL uses artificial intelligence not only for its translator, but also for its new tool that improves written text, or Bunny.net provides an API to generate images “on the edge”.
