Glad to see we’ve upgraded from inflation and border chaos to potential global war. Stellar work, truly. What could go wrong?

Hungary just hit pause on a bill to silence foreign-funded watchdogs.
When power fears scrutiny, it tries to dim the lights.
Democracy needs loud, messy, uncomfortable voices.

Walls rise. Oceans choke. But Identities bloom.
What we choose to build, barriers or bridges, will define us.

for the MAGA crowd I'll repost in terms you understand: 100 days of madness: TV man and his rich friends breaking our country. They're tearing up deals that kept us safe for 100 years and wasting our money. This isn't a TV show, it's our real life getting worse every day. #100DaysOfDamage

100 days of chaos: a B-roll reality host and his infotainment cabal wielding the world's largest military, shredding century-old treaties and economic alliances. Not entertainment, it's vandalism of democracy in real time. #100DaysOfChaos

When you have a mad king in the White House, finding the authentic optimism to record a tech podcast feels like searching for a signal in noise. My silence isn't surrender, it's recalibration. Hope needs to be honest, not forced. #ResistanceIsSelfCare

I've been silent on "It's Techtastic" lately. Truth is, it's hard to broadcast tech optimism when doomscrolling feels more realistic. Still believe in tech's potential, just need time to find authentic hope worth sharing. The mic will be waiting when I'm ready. #PodcastHiatus #Podcast #Optimism

Shaders, stars, & just the right amount of chaos. Sol Survivor dev update is live!

I’m testing nebulae, energy waves, volatile stars, & watching my AI NPCs out-fly me (again).

Check out the new gameplay clip:

The best ones disappear until you need them.

Gameplay update for Sol Survivor!
Fixed controls (still a bit spicy), music, squashed some camera bugs & the AI NPCs are embarrassingly better pilots than me.

The environment is still placeholder, but progress is progress!

They didn’t win with tanks but with tax cuts, media control, & systems designed to keep us chasing scraps.

The billionaires have been at war with us for decades. It’s time to fight back by building better.

It’s time we admit billionaires declared class war on us.
We’re just late to the fight.

If we don’t build systems that serve us, we’ll keep losing—our time, agency, and future.

Oligarchy won’t end with protests.
It ends when we out-create them.

I wrote a manifesto for those of us who still believe in building — even as the world teeters.

“The Future We Choose” is a call to reject doom and reclaim imagination as infrastructure.

It’s been a quiet week here, but only on the outside.

I’ve been deep in the weeds (literally and figuratively):
Spring planting on our little farm
Building nonstop on Harte.io (soon to be Ngentix)
And yes, Sol Survivor is still very much alive

More to come soon — just surfacing for air
Harte
Harte.io Core connects your fragmented systems — ERP, CRM, HRIS, and more — into one shared semantic model. No more lost context. Just one system of meaning.

Just dropped a sneak peek of ship customization in Sol Survivor on my Patreon.
You don’t just pilot your ship — you grow it.
Custom bodies.
Energy-based movement.
Shape is survival.

I’m not building this game. Not yet.
But I had a vision — of painting sky mandalas, of catching falling elements to build a floating Spire.
So I followed the whisper.
Here's how an idea becomes almost real.
