Boy, was this fun to see generated. 😂 erbosoft.com/blog/2026/05...

One of the hardest blog posts I've ever had to write. erbosoft.com/blog/2026/04...

Why I used AI to build Amsterdam...and why I refused to let it think for me. erbosoft.com/blog/2026/04...

Electric Minds returns...a new platform, and a living archive of virtual community history. erbosoft.com/blog/2026/04...

Responding to scripting.com/2026/02/25/1.... Hey Dave @scripting.com: If you want Grokipedia, you know where to find it. (Except most people don't WANT an encyclopedia edited by "MechaHitler." Who knew?)

My friend Bree Fram is running for Congress. I definitely endorse her! erbosoft.com/blog/2026/01...

This is my Congressional Representative. The Orange Felon in the Oval Bordello has called for his arrest and execution. There is NO POSSIBLE UNIVERSE in which this is okay. 🤬😡💩

This is worth listening to...and ABSOLUTELY UNBELIEVABLE that it had to be said out loud. And ABSOLUTELY UNFORGIVABLE that Orange Felon has called for the DEATHS of these fine patriots. Telling the truth is NOT "sedition," and don't you DARE try and tell me otherwise.

My "HTML Checker" was key to successful conferencing in CommunityWare & Venice! It limited HTML, auto-balanced tags, resolved references, & even spellchecked. Now rewriting it in Go for my next project – a crucial piece of the conferencing system! erbosoft.com/blog/2025/11...

A cat post today! erbosoft.com/blog/2025/11...

A nice AI political cartoon for you.

Current social media is dominated by billionaire-controlled platforms, leading to harm. Smaller, earlier online communities fostered connection & were human-run. I'm reviving Venice's concept, for distributed, independent communities – a return to those earlier values. erbosoft.com/blog/2025/11...

AI-generated Go code for locale-aware date formatting failed spectacularly! Gemini's initial solution was outdated, and subsequent attempts were equally flawed. Ultimately, a legacy, unmaintained library proved the winner. A reminder: always verify AI output! erbosoft.com/blog/2025/10...

My link management system combines multiple tools! Google Keep for quick saves, Karakeep (local server) for blogs, Obsidian (AmyBase) for technical articles, and browser bookmarks for lingering items. It's a personalized workflow for efficient link organization! erbosoft.com/blog/2025/10...

Migrating Java code to Go revealed significant improvements! The new version streamlines authentication token generation: a single database call, CRC32 checksum instead of hashCode, and a clean fmt.Sprintf() for the final string. Go's expressiveness shines through! erbosoft.com/blog/2025/10...

Closing the loop on email security means more than just SPF/DKIM/DMARC! I automated DMARC report analysis using a container (gutmensch/dmarc-report) to parse & visualize reports. Now I can see what's making it through—and troubleshoot bounces. Email security, complete! erbosoft.com/blog/2025/10...

Linguacode solved a huge integration bottleneck at Beeline! By creating a universal data format (inspired by Star Trek), we moved away from custom code & empowered non-developers. Result? Faster integrations & a powerful form of vendor lock-in. Still likely in use today! erbosoft.com/blog/2025/10...

I'm building tools for myself! From dragonglass (Obsidian to HTML converter) to distance-calc (location analysis) & custom Minecraft modpacks, these projects solve my own needs. Plus, a Venice-related project is in work! Solving problems & indulging passions – sweet! erbosoft.com/blog/2025/09...

AI's a useful tool, not a replacement for thinking! I use it for research, code rewriting, legal advice (locally!), and even art generation. It's great for sparking ideas & automation, but I still value understanding & critical evaluation. Not a "vibe coding" fan! erbosoft.com/blog/2025/09...

The Tea app data breach highlights a crucial lesson: security must be paramount, especially for apps handling sensitive user data. Public cloud storage & inexperienced developers are a dangerous mix. While the app's purpose is valuable, robust security is non-negotiable. erbosoft.com/blog/2025/09...

Microservices aren't always the answer! Unless you're a giant like Google, they add complexity & technical debt. A "modulith" – code structured for potential microservice splitting later – offers a smarter, more flexible approach. Don't blindly follow trends! erbosoft.com/blog/2025/09...

I helped save the Electric Minds community from shutting down after its corporate host folded. We bought a server, registered electricminds.org, and I rebuilt their conferencing system in Java (dubbed the Venice Web Communities System). It's a project I'm proud of! erbosoft.com/blog/2025/09...

I made it onto Dashcam Nation! (Last clip in the video!) youtu.be/oJMCWAtRss0?...

This bishop is a TRUE Christian. And she is unafraid to speak the truth to the Orange Felon. May God bless her and protect her from his repercussions. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVIn...

Today in Absolutely Insane “It Runs DOOM” News…if you thought DOOM in a PDF was insane, how about DOOM in a Word doc? www.tomshardware.com/video-games/...

Mother Nature gives the Orange Felon the finger. 🖕🏻 apnews.com/article/trum...

Today in Absolutely Insane "It Runs DOOM" News...guys, gals, and nonbinary pals, presenting DOOM in a PDF FILE! doompdf.pages.dev

There's an honest man and a true patriot.

I peed in the ladies’ room at Jacksonville Airport last year. Don’t tell DeSatan. 😁

Um...achievement unlocked, I think?

Sadly, I have been sent to Whamhalla as of 4:26 PM MST today, when @richardblade.bsky.social played it on SiriusXM First Wave. #whamageddon2024 #whamageddon

@ladyphoenix.bsky.social You’d probably appreciate this.

Let's try and keep Bluesky from turning into another exTwitter-style Nazi bar. Thank you.

If you see this post, can you please help spread this information? #ASafeChoice is a referral network of physicians who provide medication abortion services ACROSS THE US. People everywhere need to know about this option. These doctors have capacity to help more women! Let’s spread word! ❤️✊

Important note: If you hear me SING "Last Christmas," it does NOT count by Rule 3.

Just wanted to remind everyone who uses this flag that you're amazing, you're valid, and love, and your community has your back 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵

Is there NOTHING that Emerald Mine Space Nazi won't f**k up? Fortunately, there are a whole bunch of other TTRPG systems out there that will NOT be getting turned into the Nazi bar.

A Dutch tulip farmer is heating his greenhouses with the waste heat generated from Bitcoin miners. Because irony is dead. (Via JWZ.)

Post a ship that’s neither Star Trek nor Star Wars.

All the MAGAts claiming that Wicked is "woke"? Get THIS.

Aww, the poor widdle Nazis got their fee-fees hurt! You know what this is? (Amy rubs her thumb and forefinger together) It's the Erbosoft Nanotech Violin playing "My Heart Bleeds Purple Piss For You." 🤣
