Still one of the best home improvement hacks I’ve ever done. Not a single regret and very happy I did it every time I have to wash the windows or one of my bikes (on a balcony).

And Gardena hose is more robust than shower hose, fight me.

“I think I swallowed my router.”
“Here, take my seat.”

Also, I'm pretty sure I've said this before, but I'll say it again:

Part of your job as a senior is to tell your juniors about your fuckups. The embarrassing cringe reckless and lazy bullshit that you did when you were new, and the various times you brought down Prod. We ALL did it sometime. And then tell them: the moment you realized you fucked up, I know, the impulse is to try and cover it up, but don't do it. Come to the seniors you trust, and they'll help you unfuck it, and fight management tooth and claw like mamma and pappa bears to defend you from any shitheads in management. Because that's what our seniors did to us.

Wisst ihr, was mich an diesem ganzen "früher hat ein Gehalt zum Leben gereicht" Gefasel so nervt? Also außer dass das Patriarchat einen Harten kriegt? Das es so bodenlos unehrlich ist. Wenn die Leute leben würden wie früher, ginge das sicher auch von einem Gehalt.
Auto? Nein. Urlaub? Wandern im Wald. Fleisch? Sonntags. Wurst und Käse? Nur auf Papas Schichtenbrot. Essen gehen? Nope. Also das, was heute als arm gilt.

Hi 😀​ Das, was
#MajaGoepel #rp25
hier sagt. 👇 sollte sich jeder mal durch den kopf gehen lassen,

Wir müssen uns überlegen, wem wir digital wie medial unsere Aufmerksamkeit schenken.

Und wie wir aus der Aufmerksamkeitsspirale der Kulturkämpfer raus kommen - und wieder mehr über demokratische Zukunftspolitik sprechen.

@bekopharm also given it a path and also does not work.
InputPlumber looked promising maybe I'll look into it further or try to program something on my own.

jaja Agile-Entwicklung und so. Ich glaube, das hänge ich an meinem Arbeitsplatz auf.

Edit: ich möchte mich bei allen Agile-Coaches, Scrum-Mastern XP-Priestern, Crystal-Erleuchteten und Six-Sigma Blackbelts(nur weil das so schön klingt) entschuldigen. Ich wollte keine religiösen Gefühle verletzen.

Five years after launch and two years after its shutdown, a team at RKI takes a look back: how did its open development benefit the #CoronaWarnApp, and what aspects can still be improved in future projects? [1]

We appreciate that they considered our perspective, which we shared in our shutdown article [2]. They even included a long quote from it. 🙂

We recommend #CCTG enthusiasts to share this paper widely! We need more projects of public interest to be developed in the open and to involve the community like #CWA.

@bekopharm with udev rules based on the path I get persistent device names but the games do not care about as they are parsing the name attribute out of them.
Looked into a lot of different tools for virtual joysticks/gamepads. Moltengamepad crashes hard and inputplumber says it can't use my devices...
Looked a bit in evdev programming but it's already too late today

Just noticed today is DT!’s 7th birthday! Can’t believe it’s still going. Well done to me and my dogged persistence in the face of general apathy…

To celebrate, here’s the first strip.

Some days are better than others

A meme about stuck nuts or bolts. It shows, vertically,
- three progressively larger wrenches, with the phrases "please come loose", "I hope it comes loose", and then "I wasn't asking" (this wrench's handle is about twice as long as the previous one). Then there's a circular saw with the text "you should have listened". Finally, a lit blowtorch with the text "Can't be tight if it's a liquid".

Particpant 1:  So the greatest conference experience happened to me last week. They were holding our conference at the same venue as an anime convention. This meant that interspersed with all the stodgy roboticists were a ton of people in awesome costumes! The whimsy was incredible. All conferences should be this way, it was way more fun. 

A photo follows of three  roboticists taking a selfie with a person in a cosplay constume

Hell yes. #xwvm announces public alpha.

I'm playing this for a while now having an absolute blast. This also works on #Linux including #HOTAS / #HOSAS and #HeadTracking with #Opentrack

#XWing #StarWars #Gaming #LinuxGaming #GamingOnLinux #Space #PewPew

Screenshot of a live stream showing the interior of a Star Wars X-Wing fighter firing it's 4 laser cannons at the same time at a target. The view is slightly tilted to the left because the player makes use of a head tracking device that controls the ingame camera.

so lets say this AI thing replaces developers, do they need to come to the office so the management have someone to control and manage on-site?
OR would that lead to management being unemployed?
