👋 Hi i'm Keith!

Hi there, I'm Keith Kurson, the owner / programmer / adult child who grew up here.

You might remember me from the time I tried to have a youtube career, the time I ignored a bug you really wanted fixed (but hopefully have fixed recently) or that you schlepped out to see at a meetup in 2012 or 2013 (thank you 🙇‍♂️!!!!). I've been doing this for over 20 years which is humbling, incredible, and kind of weird! I hope to be doing it for another 20 years.

Now, I'm still the owner of Subeta, trying to keep this little corner of the internet alive. It's my hobby these days, I legitimately do not get paid to work on Subeta, it's my way of building the part of the internet I want to see, and not something driven by an algorithm or for mass amounts of clicks. My day job is working on SNAP and Medicaid and ensuring that technology isn't a barrier to access to benefits, so building Subeta is a vacation ;)

The Suggestions & Ideas forum is where you can leave ideas, feedback or just tell me what you think a feature should do. I'm really open to it these days, and want to make this site come together, together!

We definitely will be, thank you!

And yeah, we're getting a whole new breed of internet crazies out of it I feel... - I hope that (doubtful) real regulation to it comes soon so it can be used responsibly/properly. One of my closest friends introduced me to Claude and I was blown away, it's a very very impressive tool if used right. I use it a lot in my job for tasks that took.. days/weeks to complete (receipt consolidation, invoicing, etc) and am so thankful for that! It's allowed me to spend time on things that actually help benefit my company that I would've never thought of cause I simply couldn't in the workload.

Well I won't keep bugging you but seriously rad work and keep it up! Thanks for keeping this site's heart pumping!

It has definitely been.. a doozey to say the least. My boyfriend and I are headed to Biddeford this weekend to join the peaceful protests... 2026 Maine is not the Maine I have grown to love, that's for sure. Went from people saying "Where even is Maine" a few years ago to "Oh, Maine?" now-a-days.

Your "real" job sounds like an incredibly important role and it must feel good to be a part of what is inevitably going to be a integral part of our future. I read some of your takes on AI and how you started using Claude and I really loved your take on it. The rating system you broke down about AI assistance vs human was cool, I would love to see more people adopt that!!

Hey Keith! Just wanted to say how impressed I am to see how far you've come - being an active user back before 2012 when I was just honestly still a kid and coming back years later to see that you still have such an incredible passion for web development & this site is really awesome and admirable! I am excited to be dabbling around in the site daily now and hope to be more consistent in participating. Really great article on Graham Platner by the way, as a resident of Maine I had to see what you thought and you definitely hit the nail on the head. Hope you have a fantastic day!
