🎉 Happy Easter - Show me your Easter eggs :)
I have a 15-year-old homepage with a hidden chat from an old game 👉 yuna.berlin
Guess the game?

Easter: a seasonal reminder that most companies have the imagination of a beige wall.
Let’s talk software Easter eggs – tiny sparks of joy buried under layers of Jira tickets.

If your product has none?
Congratulations. Your engineers are either chained in the feature factory…
or your company is too visionless to let them play.

Examples of fun companies:
🐍 Snake while YouTube buffers
🎮 GitHub mobile mini-game
🙃 Blame-someone error pages

Your product?
❌ No dark mode
❌ No gamification
❌ No clever errors
❌ No i18n
❌ No responsive design
❌ No joy

But hey, Time to Market, right?
You’re not innovating. You’re duct-taping compliance machines.

No Easter eggs = No creative freedom
No themed UI = No empathy
No jokes = No soul
No dev input = No ownership

You’re not building software.
You’re crafting digital despair.

Fix it. Or at least add a theme toggle.

💀 Happy Easter.
Go find your soul.

I know of an example of a (#)microdisappointment...

I got an open source(FLOSS) stopwatch app that has a button that's too small and my phone is tiny.

The app was designed for Android and phones but I may need to tap a few extra times because the button is too small to start and stop the timer.

Then I got this other FLOSS app that actually has a large button(that common sense says is the right size)

these machines will destroy US.

Two things I've learned about my UX preferences while playing around with #openbsd and #fvwm and watching a few videos on the #CosmicDesktopEnvironment

  1. I prefer full screen apps on smaller displays. (Including laptops) I blame cell phones for this preference.

  2. When having more than one window on a screen I prefer the way fvwm or cosmic handle it by changing the color on the window pane or frame. This eliminates the need for often hard to make out visually window shadows or having to tint the non active window slightly. Like Gnome is currently doing.

I wish there was a way to do the same thing in Gnome with accessibility features or even an extension for gnome shell.

🎉 Después de 39 cafés, 17 refactors, mucho sueño y algunas sesiones de debugging en la madrugada... lo logré.

💻 Mi sitio baumannzone.dev ahora tiene nuevas páginas y un nuevo diseño, pero mantiene lo más difícil de lograr: 100/100 en Lighthouse en todas las categorías.

✅ Performance
✅ Accesibilidad
✅ Best Practices
✅ SEO

No por presumir (bueno, un poco sí ), pero este tipo de resultados no aparecen por accidente. Aparecen cuando decides tomarte en serio cada píxel y cada detalle visual.

A veces el reconocimiento viene en forma de aplausos.

Otras veces… es un robot de Google diciéndote que tu trabajo sí está bien hecho.

100% de puntuación en Lighthouse.

No todos los sitios #web logran un 100… ¿el tuyo ya lo consiguió?

The pressures on tech workers to "democratize disciplines" and "become generalists" has enabled the rise template ronin - grifters peddling simple, quick, and cheap "solutions" that don't actually fix anything.

Together with their loyal AI squires, template ronin leave a trail of destruction for the rest of us to clean up.

In my latest issue, I go over how to fight back.

Learning “best practices” by rote has produced a cohort of shallow generalists. Solving real-world challenges requires tailoring your methods to the problem's unique context.
