Angry voice of @devoidofbeauty.bsky.social 🇩🇪 The very opposite of sXe. https://devoidofbeauty.bandcamp.com/album/of-pain-absence Socialist. A radically open source cog in the machine, just doing the work. Remember to punch a nazi today 👊
Reminder: The edge IS the pit (especially at slam and hardcore shows) Act accordingly. Don't want kicks to your head? Stay all the way in the back*, don't stay to the sides cause there's literally something called "side by side" look it up. Have fun, stay hydrated, hurt each other 🫡
My band got a new shiny website! devoidofbeauty.com All art on the website is made by humans. Logo, artwork, mascotte. Code might have been generated with the aid of AI. Website design by me 🫡
Devoid of Beauty
Metalcore and hardcore from Berlin.

It was about time After a number of years on hiatus, I joined one of my favorite people and guitarist ever, to write down and scream about how painful life can be. Enjoy! (Still looking for a drummer in Berlin 🫡) #musicsky ? Or whatever lol It's not on major platforms, by choice.
New EP out on bandcamp. devoidofbeauty.bandcamp.com
I don't usually share strictly work stuff here but.... STACKED PRS !!!
Stacked PRs, now on GitHub. Go forth and stack 🥞
I just discovered the CEO of Patreon, who stated that AI crawlers will be blocked on the platform (or at least they will try), has a music side gig on top of being a CEO. He gets it. That's dope and there's hope. www.patreon.com/jackconte/po... #NotAllCEOs

As a creator, and as a leader of a tech company, I have a deep sense of conflict about AI. I feel outrage, but I also feel something else. O

Denzel Curry playing in a hardcore band was not in my 2026 bingo card Awesome dude lol
I've been selling some SaaS product that was a silly idea of mine a while ago (not yet giga public but we'll get there) and some continuous support with it. So I am getting Sripe payouts lately and I'm kinda addicted to the emails coming in. Feels like passive income, in a way. NOW I SEE
I'm in a bad place. No, not mentally. I'm in Vegas (again) and it's 1000 degrees. 🫠
Boundaries released another banger album I was wrong judging from a badly mixed/mastered single, but still no idea what happened with that, I suspect some Sumerian classic move lol
I saw a car plated 6ix7even PLEASE NO (I have friends with kids)
Congrats to Databricks but man, I wish every country forced companies after a certain evaluation threshold to IPO by law Get that money from the market, let's see your financials dude SHOW ME THE FUCKING DATA Thanks for coming to my TED talk

Sometimes all it takes is the push of a button. Typically the shutdown one. Touched grass and rock today (the latter a little harder than necessary)
Sometimes all you can say to someone is "Skill issue" Or "Read the fucking manual 🤠" (Cowboy emoji included) This is how I feel after less than a week in the Silicon Valley lol
I'm in the Bay Area for the week, it's cool to be where all the buzz is, at least for a little while. Plus, it's not 43 degrees like in Las Vegas lol
Welcome to Vegas! 43 degrees outside, 18 degrees, plus loud slot machine noises and bright lights inside. I don't get why it's a popular choice for conferences and company gatherings, it's not even cheap. (I'm already flying out of here, but I'll be back UGH)

Before it was RTFM now I'd RTFC Read the fucking code. You also still need to read the fucking manual, docs, specs and whatnot 🫡
AI doesn't belong in anything that needs heart or soul. We proudly paid our artist for our band's logo, artwork and will keep doing so for the foreseeable future. No AI used for lyrics, for composing the music, production or anything like that. Keep that in industry and out of arts and craft.
A not so gentle reminder that we are firmly anti-AI. We believe in human creativity. You won't find any Gen AI crap in our games. Artwork from top right: Siman Vlaisavljević, Álvaro Jiménez, Findara McAvinchey, Clara-Marie Morin, Álvaro again, and Wouter Florusse. Human Made logo by Hinokodo
I envision a world where, aside from content platforms like music and entertainment, I rebuild and self host all of the services I pay a subscription for, with AI Then, I unsubscribe from said AI and re-sub once a year to do a bug bash In the meantime I self host Kimi and open weights models*

Ok so after less than 24 hours using YouTube music... It's SO bad. The UX is completely fucked lol I'm gonna implement the Tidal migration(s) from Spotify and YouTube Music soon on github.com/mbianchidev/...

I migrated over 50 playlists from Spotify to YouTube music. Not by hand but with a hacky thing I've orchestrated based on my idea of open playlist mbianchidev.github.io/open-playlist/ Yes it's mostly AI doing the heavy lifting (duh) - and since YTMusic is not better, I'll move on Tidal soon 🫡
