Enjoying the outdoor office next to the camper lifestyle 🚐
I’m quite happy with the second vaccination jab yesterday. The cross vacccination with Astra first, Biontech second seems to not only include good working 5G, but also NTP. Don’t need a watch anymore!

Wer von euch war das? #mauszeit

I’m in a train!
And my bike is going to bring me home 🚴♂️
Oho, I’m seeing twitter replies to my blog post on hammelblog.de integrated by micro.blog? Including push notifications in the app?
What is this nice new magic, @manton?
Hartnäckig
Today is the day to decide. Linux laptop or new MacBook Pro? Let’s see if I succumb to the shiny hardware and if macOS gets fixed or if it becomes Linux on the desktop to work with again after more than 10 years.
I’m a bit nervous :) #wwdc
Back on the roads

Today’s work. Removed a leaky toilet.
This is just about my work machine. Private things I still enjoy a lot on iOS which still provides a lot of value. But MacOS for work just isn’t a requirement anymore while a proper Linux would give so much.
My little demands would be:
hey, #linux bubble, which hardware would you recommend?

I feel seen. Thanks, @patrickrhone. It helps.
I need to bring back some color into my life. So, here’s a new profile pic. Still no need to lower any eyebrows.
A little tale of exponentiality and nothing.
Current mood: stay strong, don’t give up.
Das Zurückziehen von #AstraZeneca erinnert wirklich sehr an das Trolley Problem. Eine klare Beurteilung ist überhaupt nicht einfach.
Macht nur noch deutlicher, dass der klassische Anwendungsfall des Problems - autonomes Fahren - viel weiter weg ist als Leute einem glauben machen wollen.
hold on, if love is the answer, you’re home, hold on
Perspective 📷
I don’t like reading newsletters in my mail client. Not that I don’t like newsletters. My best information sources are newsletters. Besides blogs and twitter.
But with subscribing to more newsletters my mail client transformed even more to a place where I wanted to be contacted personally and not as part of an audience. It’s a place that might even trigger notifications and disturb me. If the sending person is important enough. No newsletter is that urgent or important. I tried filtering and putting them into out of the inbox into folders, but it was still a mix of two different mediums.
Reading and communication are two different things for me.
Just today Jason Snell posted an article how he sends newsletter into the RSS service feedbin, and that’s the same way I consume newsletters, by reading them in reeder, my feedreader of choice.
To make the emails accessible via RSS, I use the service Kill the newsletter which is a simple solution to this problem: you can create mailboxes with a unique email address which you can use to subscribe to the newsletters. This mailbox is accessible through a dedicated Atom feed you can subscribe to. That’s it.
I’ve converted almost all of my newsletter subscriptions to Kill the newsletter and my mailbox got even lighter.
I love it!
Gerade findet die Beerdigung eines mir lieben Menschen statt. Er starb durch das Virus. Einer von 81 gestorbenen Menschen aus meinem Landkreis, einer von 12573 aus Bayern, einer von 71504 aus Deutschland.

Vor genau einem Jahr1 hat Risklayer damit begonnen, Daten zu CoViD19 Infektionen direkt von den Landkreisen bzw. Gesundheitsämtern abzugreifen und tagesaktuell auf Twitter - @risklayer und in einem Google Doc aufzuarbeiten. Ich selbst habe sie bis in den Herbst noch nicht auf dem Schirm und mit handgeklöppelten Scriptablewidgets oder den Fallzahlen vom RKI meinen Informationsdurst2 zu stillen. Seit ich sie kenne machen sie das besser denn je, wenn ich’s brauche mehrmals am Tag.
Manchmal zweifle ich, ob das wirklich gesund ist, aber viel häufiger wird mir klar vor Augen geführt, dass es wesentlich besser für meine geistige Gesundheit ist und ich mich gut informiert fühle.
Danke Risklayer, ihr helft!
Of course I struggeled on the second day to write a blog post. The whole universe aligned to make it hard on me ;)
No kidding, this day was rough. Getting woken up at 3am after only two hours of sleep by a couple hundred failed system checks is nerv wrecking. Especially if you could have mitigated most of it. But this is what happens if you don’t properly sort in announced maintenance windows of your datacenter provider and network equipment gets updated.
It would have been ok if the replication on two databases didn’t break on top of that. This created another huge pile of work. Luckily everything is alright again and our lovely customers weren’t affected.
Tonight there is another maintenance window with the next batch of routers getting updates. Not a chance I’ll be surprised again.
