The town is the coziest place on the internet.
I was reading some posts on the town BBJ and it's like there are other human beings that can *understand* me, have had some of the same experiences. It's a very comforting feeling.
I don't really know why I'm writing this here to be honest, here goes.
Well, I sort of know actually. I've been wanting to edit this html for some time now but haven't figured out the limits of what I should talk about. I would like to talk about personal topics, but I don't want people to be able to link this identity with my True Name.
In the same way, I want to contribute some projects and share knowledge, but if I point someone IRL to these projects then they would know that ertai is True Name and True Name is ertai, which I don't want.
I guess an alias isn't enough and that true anonimity would solve this. I need to give this more thought.
Update to the above: I have decided that I won't show any work-related person (except if they have become a good friend of course) this space. I intend to be quirky, genuine and somewhat personal and I don't think anyone work-related would care for the kind of stuff I will write here. It's just not necessary.
Also, I think what I don't want above all is for some random person IRL to be able to put me in a search engine and find this page. I'm still not sure how I stand on the reverse though, a random internet visitor on this site getting some personal information on me and potentially doxing me through OSINT, behavioral analysis ect. So I'm not sure how much personal info I should share. I think it is okay if someone IRL who stumbled on my website recognises me (that is unlikely to happen anyway, since there are very few visitors). This means it's okay if I put an image of myself if I remove the metadata and make sure it is not reverse image searchable.
I will put this on a separate page eventually
If a townie reads this and has some suggestions, feel free to contact me via email! That would be super nice of you!

I will talk about the things and people that I find inspiring on this page.
ertai is a wizard in the best tabletop card game of the world ever created (read: Magic the Gathering). I didn't choose this name for the "computer wizard" ego. I have a personal story with this card which reminds me of being kind and giving for free. I promise I'll write it down when I have more time.
