I’ve regularly listened to the Mostly Technical podcast for almost a year and always enjoyed it. It’s fun, entertaining and very instructive.

In the past few days I got fed up with all the other podcasts in my rotation, which I listen to while walking. So O decided to go back to first episode and listen to all of it again. I’m officially obsessed with these two guys, Aaron and Ian.

A friend mentions a couple op locations missing on Zelfpluktuinen. Man… updating this sucks - it’s a bunch of scripts, tsv files, google docs sheets, etc.

I need to organize this better. Will start working on some proper tooling to expand, update, improve this. And, who knows, create an additional web directory.

So far we have an average of 80 visitors per day. Not bad - since google search still didn’t index all the pages. Kind of a surprise is that a non-insignificant portion of the traffic comes from chatGPT. That was surprising.

I’ve just released a web directory, called Zelfpluktuinen, both in dutch and in english with u-pick locations in the Netherlands. Just a nice thing to have for myself, as I do enjoy these places (and the concept).

I’ve crawled a lot of these websites, and now I regret some of the decisions I took. But that’s part of what this site is supposed to be; on keep improving stuff.

Google search console has proven to be a bitch, and also Cloudflare is too complicated - this dashboard is absolutely bonkers - you never know if you’re applying settings to the account or to the application. But we’ll manage.

Went for a one day trip to Brugge. I didn’t go there for quite a while. What a lovely place.
