Jack of all trades, master of some—for example French Exits.

I write #software for a living and for fun, most of it in #python, some of it for talking to satellites. I enjoy listening to #music and #podcasts, and drinking good #coffee. #NotJustSad. Living in #Hannover.

So when I am sick I have no desire to listen to any music.
Instead, I am watching semi interesting documentaries.

So far I already watched

  • Jan Ullrich (surprisingly good)
  • Beckham (so so)
  • Sly (hm...)

...any other suggestions? I have Netflix and Prime.

janw,

@derthomas I haven’t seen it yet, but have you seen “Arnold” about Arnold Schwarzenegger?

It‘s not until you want to move away from it, that you notice the firm grip that #GitHub or #GitLab have on you project. I‘d love to move all my repos to @Codeberg but it‘s still lacking some proper CI infra as far as I can see. Running #Woodpecker myself would be great, but I cannot see a reliable way to set up a private instance (not reachable from the public internet) due to the necessity for webhooks to reach it. Any ideas, dear internet?

Sonntagmorgen, erste Hunderunde: #Hannover List ist ein einziger Parkplatz. Gehweg, Radweg, Sperrfläche, Grünstreifen – alles ist Parkplatz. #dieSchönsteStadtDerWelt? Wohl eher #derSchönsteParkplatzDerWelt.

I have this dear person who I’d love to chat more with but who cannot be convinced to install other messenger besides #WhatsApp. I’m haven’t had WhatsApp for years because I don’t touch Meta/Facebook products with a 10ft pole. I have tons of other messengers though!

This person on the other hand—his reason to only have WhatsApp is that 99.99% of his contacts are on WhatsApp, and being some sort of “app minimalist”. So I guess I’m that 0.01%, they cannot be bothered about, and that makes me sad.

Höre gerade die neuste @lagedernation und mir wird dabei klar, was für ein inhärent und fundamental konservatives Instrument die doch ist. Kaum ein anderer Mechanismus ist so rückwärtsgewandt und Status-Quo-verteidigend wie das grundsätzliche Verbot, signifikant in die Zukunft unseres Landes zu investieren. Und das macht mich wirklich wütend.

Holy shit.
People.
Who type like this.
In Slack.
Drive me nuts.
Please stop.
Just make one message.
You don't need to send every sentence, one at a time.

janw,

@btp Amen to that. Maybe you want to school your correspondents with this: https://nohello.net

@MonaApp Is there any way to limit what will be shown on the notifications tab? For example I don’t want poll results to show up. All I can find is settings for push notifications but that does not seem to change the tab contents.

Oh, and: thank you for this fantastic app!

janw,

@chrismerkel Classic case of “design by committee”.

Hallo #Hannover, kann mir jemand eine Sauna empfehlen? Habe bisher das AquaLaatzium probiert, das ist zwar ganz nett aber viel zu groß/überlaufen. Ich hätte gern eine kleine Location (ähnlich zur Kiezsauna in F'hain, wer sie kennt), die auch gern Wert auf spießig-deutsche Saunakultur legen darf.

janw,

@homeassistant @koehntopp Cool cool cool.

So who‘s gonna publish a HACS repository on Codeberg for it?

@ainmosni The Swede?! I know those feet and cargo pants from a mile away! xD

janw,

@ainmosni Ah. Should have read the thread first. Sorry for your loss. How’d it happen?

janw, to random

I‘m really beginning to enjoy starting my work day early. When I’m at my desk by 8:00 am, that gives me two hours of uninterrupted focus time, before the first meeting is scheduled, plus I can leave early in the afternoon.

janw,

@odr_k4tana I get that. I‘ve been the same, it‘s only recently that I‘m not a total wreck that early.

I've been giving #GeforceNow a try for the last few weeks and I have to say: it really made me enjoy gaming again.

Last time I actually played something must have been over ten years ago and it's great to not have an entry cost of some €1000+ for new hardware to get going again. And for casual gaming the latency is totally fine as well. Big thumbs up!

janw,

@ainmosni Cool, I'll check that out!

janw, to webdev

Hey and guild, are there any alternatives to Insomnia and Postman that are not entirely obnoxious and klunky to use?

janw,

@ainmosni I agree, and httpie is my go-to still. But when I’m working on a more complex API that has an OpenAPI spec, i’d like to just throw that at some tool, and have all endpoints at a glance, add custom request data, etc.

janw,

@ainmosni Shit, there’s a GUI?! I didn’t know!

I'm looking at @signalapp transferring gigabytes of stupid one-time memepics to my new phone at glaaaciaaal speeds with their custom end-to-end encrypted transfer process because SeCuRiTy. How's your day going?

janw,

@ainmosni There's so many things "not ideal" with it, IMHO but it's the best we have I guess. And at least we have Stories!1 @signalapp

janw,

@signalapp Correction: I’ll be doing that entire 1 hour long thing again, because I accidentally locked one of the phones for just a second and that aborted the process. Utter trash.

RTO does not mean “return to office”, any sysadmin will tell you it’s “recovery time objective”, so we can all stay working from home thank you very much.

Developers don't say "I was young and needed the money". They say:

"I was young and thought 'this should be simple!' "

janw,

@kernellogger I hope that we will reach the point soon where developers say the former about that pointless blockchain startup they joined in their 20s.
