Management during the daytime, building small things as a hobby. It started somewhere in mid 90s, when a full stack developer was doing Perl and writing HTML. "Webmaster" was a mysterious title, implying that you're a master, you know your way around computers, and you've seen The Internet. That webmastering still going strong for decades, and somehow I've managed to make more or less useful hobby level stuff along the way. It still happens from time to tiem. I'm a curious person. And it's fun. And an opportunity.

A simplified interface for curious. Allows to read newspaper and magazine articles as they were published 100 years ago on this day via Latvian press.
An attempt of creating offline radio station interface. Shows what's playing, allows to sift through archives and listen to the only youth-oriented radio, as it was broadcasted.
It was fun while it lasted. Now defunct because of musk. Site successfully aggregated Latvian Twitter, calculated and allowed to see recent beefs, popular tweets, etc.
