Now

Let’s say I know you, and we’d meet in the street and you’d ask me how I am? A now-page is what you’d say; instead of “fine”..

  • I’m working at Apacta A/S as a Lead Frontend Developer
  • I got married some years ago (2022) to Louise and we live near Aalborg, Denmark with our son.

Reading

Currently

Recommending

  • Mistborn series: Just finished the first all the books, and hungry for more!

Watching

  • Silo: Reminds me of Fallout; but more focus on people, the isolation and drama in the silo. Well executed!
  • Vox Machina: Adult fantasy similar to the D&D universe with great character development and fresh takes on every situation.
  • Meighty Nein: Adult fantasy from the makers of Vox Machina with longer episodes and more ambitious story.

Learning

  • Keeping up with frontend tech these days is almost a full-time job
  • Exploring alternatives of single-page-applications; such as HTMX, Turbo and other server-side ways of rendering web content.
  • Playing around with Home Assistant at home; lot’s of fun stuff. Might pick up Python.
  • Learning Godot for game development. Nothing too serious.

Work

  • We’re almost done migrating the older parts of our customer facing pages. That will allow us to clean up a bunch of legacy
  • I’ve been in DevOps mode these past 6 months migrating our infrastructure to Kubernetes from an older Swarm/Nomad setup

Pet projects

  • EventPuffin is my take on prying event-management (Birthdays, team-building, meetups, etc) from Facebook into a more inclusive platform where your grandma who doesn’t use that Internet thingy can still click on your sms to RSVP.
  • Hygge.chat is if you’d create a weird mutant baby between Slack and IRC. I was getting frustrated with Slack’s UX and wanted to see if Ergo (IRCv3 over websockets) was a viable backend.

Hobbies

  • Playing Overwatch with my son in the evening. He’s quickly catching up to my skill-level.
  • In 2020 I got my first pizza oven, and I’ve been making pizza at home since. I have a big oven (50cm wide), so I can make 18” inch pies at home, from scratch.
  • My son loves cooking, so he helps out a lot in the kitchen.
