Why is there a tube on every monitor in our Python course? 🐍
It is a simple progress signal: students put the tube up while working on exercises and take it down when they are finished. This makes it easy to see who is still working and who is ready for the next step.

This evening I created my first model in #FreeCAD that’s not made from basic shapes 🎉
It was really fun to see how a sketch turns into a real object, and how parts of that sketch can be used to extrude features along the main body.
Super cool learning moment 🤓
Now it’s time for the printer to do its thing🔥

Good Idea: Design some games
https://www.raphkoster.com/2025/11/03/game-design-is-simple-actually/
Game design boils down to creating systems where players solve problems, not just experience random fun or flashy effects. The best games challenge players with uncertainty and evolving goals, encouraging them to learn and adapt through feedback and repeated interaction. By starting with toys or simple systems and layering on goals and feedback, designers can craft engaging experiences that reward mastery and prediction, rather than just mindless repetition or shallow entertainment. #GameDesign #ProblemSolving #LearningByDoing #Creativity #FeedbackLoops
Why My Live Streams Are Part of Adventure Adjacent (Not a Detour)
Too cold to wrench, too busy to travel. Here's why live streams (trucking, hunting, etc.) still count as Adventure Adjacent, and how they keep curiosity warm.
🧭 Scouts BSA learn through hands-on experience—at meetings, campouts, and beyond. 🏕️ They practice real skills like knots, first aid, and cooking. Older Scouts teach younger ones, building leadership and confidence. 🌟 Scouts must do each skill to complete requirements, showing what they’ve learned through action.

Wenn ich geahnt hätte, dass ein einfaches "rebuild" gereicht hätte um dem #Bitwarden|Server wieder erreichbar zu machen, hätte ich heute so viel schöne andere Dinge tun können.
Aber hey, was ich wieder alles gelernt habe auf meinen Umwegen. Sagenhaft. Schade, dass ich das alles morgen schon wieder vergessen habe.
Raspberry Pi feels like a 1990s sweet old PC all over again.
The excitement of connecting devices, like GPIO pins, recalls serial and parallel ports
Tweaking, adjusting, and troubleshooting teaches you more than just following instructions
Growing your Pi and skills brings joy in ways automated systems can’t
Constraints spark creativity and deep learning

My current success rate with #MechanicalKeyboard PCB soldering is currently only 2 out of 5, well 40% is a pass mark - just.
The #RaspberryPiPico #RP2040 ‘Gamma Omega TC36K’ board worked (an easy build, could probably have socketed it). 💚
One success, one failure with #SeeedStudio #Xiao BLE castellated in Forager ‘Acid’ PCB (some fiddly back pads). 🧡
Two failures with #ProMicro #nRF52840 BLE in ‘Gamma Omega Hesse’ board attempting faux-castellation💔
Just as well custom PCBs are fabricated in batches of five - waiting on spare parts to try again - #LearningByDoing or #LearningByFailing ?

@inpc Hi there! Nice to meet you. We do all of our recording, mixing and mastering ourselves. We hope it didn’t turn out too bad 🫣 #learningbydoing
Gestern war spontane #installParty bei uns im Unterricht. Wir haben uns Laptops geschnappt, die Studies haben sich ISOs gewählt (Distrowatch), Sticks geflasht (dd) und frisch installiert.
90min #learningByDoing. Ich war überrascht, wie viele das vorher schonmal gemacht hatten. Leider keine Fotos, too busy. :)

> Regarding the rain water, I thought it might need some filtering.
Actually that's quite a complex issue, and depends on a lot of factors, including the species involved, and probably even details like the quality of the rain, issues like like acidic rain, "Saurer Regen" in german. In general terms it's recomended to use it.
To begin with it depends on the filter system, the amount of water in the tank and the amount of water you replace. You normally would treat tab water with chemicals or store it at least in open buckets for like two days so that the clorin in it can evaporate.
We never did either of that.
Commonly they say that rain water is quite the contrary to acidic, in german they say "soft" (weich), there is the tale that it is very good for washing your hair.
The fish you'll see in the videos are where you are quite exotic and their for relative expensive, if you get them at all.
All those "exotic" species over here are not only "for free" but come with the added value of emotion of catching the unknown when you lift the trap, including the extra of joy with the kids when you got something and discover new species. Definitely way more exiting than colecting postal stamps or football album figures you'll have to spend lifetime of your own for to get the money to buy them.
Given those facts we started to preocuppy less, began to use "common sense" instead of the indications of the german "Aquarium Atlas of a 1000 species" and took the road of investigating and #learningByDoing.
Things like temperature indication in the literature:
18-22 degrees celsisus!
/head scratching:
"How strange, the creeks in the winter over here a painstakingly cold. Let's forget about the temperature, this is local climate as it is."
PH indication of all kinds:
"Let's build a good filter system inventing it due to our best knowledge with what is at hand and see what's happening."
At first we used the high quality Eheim filter we brought with us. Ultimately we ended up with only the motor, as you can see in the video.
The filters are:
* The floor of the upper tank, using the standard cheapest clay "baldozas" from the nearest "barraca", covered with sand from the creek, and the lower water outlet of the tank as flow out.
From there the outflow "manguera" goes up to mark the water level of outflow we want to have for the upper tank. From their the water pours down into the lower tank in a free fall, which is actually even much bigger than the one on top.
* Inside that tank on the bottom we put a kind a filter wool cartridge, made out of a big disposable plastic bottle. Inside that cartidge goes the feeding "manguera" of the water pump that feeds the filtered water, free of sediments to not compromise the pump, back to the upper tank. Ultimately the strength of the pump doesn't matter as the water simply overflows when the desired height of water level is reached in the upper tank.
A good aquarium filter system works mainly on microorganisms. The clearness of the water in any case is created by the filter wool. As you get your sand from the creek itself, it comes with the respective bacteria and microorganisms all along. Actually you normally wash it with clear water at least two to three times, so make sure to retain those organisms. A good filter system needs like up to a month to fullly evolve. As you can see in the videos, to really clear out the water of the recovery session, it took the filter system like four to five days to really create cristal clear water.
As visible in the video, the lower tank is nearly at the higth of the floor and sorunded by la lot of vegetation. So there are a lot of leaves year round falling into it that actually start to decay in it. Anaerobic decomposition is the fastest decomposition and actually an interesting way to create fertilizer. Maybe once a year we cleared out all that decaing material from the lower tank. In the upper tank we simply cleaned the sand by picking up visible stuff that feel into the open air aquarium and maybe every once in a while using the "campana" aspiration system, adapting a 0.5l disposable plastic bottle with a "manguera", evacuating the sucked water into the lower tank. But that's only for the purpose of beauty of the visible instalation, the "show room aquarium".
Just to get an idea of how something like that looks and feels like, when cleaning out the lower tank of the decaid material, actually even methan bubbles popped up. We never did a PH test of the water, so no idea about those details.
The lower tank had fishes too, of course. In part it was the recipient for the fish that were to many in the upper tank.
The composition of amount and diversity of fishes in an aquarium is probably the most creative and important detail for a nice living ecosystem painting.
Včera som si na vlastnej koži vyskúšal šmyk, núdzové brzdenie, vyhýbacie manévre aj aquaplaning v Centre bezpečnej jazdy.
Teória je fajn, ale prax otvorí oči. A počúvať rady inštruktorov? Neoceniteľné.
Takto to funguje aj v práci – kto si myslí, že všetko vie, sa väčšinou prvý “pošmykne”. 😉🚗
