For Ace Maths I searched for unicode icons to mark progression: show that you’re getting better. Since I found a lot of different options (from simple sparklines to a huge list of animals), I’m collecting them in this article.

Small Tips & Tricks for Python development. I’ve been programming a lot with Python until 2017 but took a long break. Now I’m more and more stepping in again because I’m using it at work. In this article I gather useful snippets I find along the way.

I read a lot about new technologies. Technologies for health, the energy transition, the future of mobility, or mobile phones. And for many engineers, legal or societal issues are "non-problems." I used to see it that way myself. But when I look at the world, it is actually the opposite: Every technical challenge we currently face can be solved if we, as a society, decide to take it on together. The real problems, however, are not technical. They lie in deciding what matters most to us. Which challenges we want to solve.

Denk daran, dass ich auch nur ein Mensch bin, der im Netz schreibt, was er denkt, und versucht, durch Erfahrungen und Lesen Gelerntes weiterzugeben, von dem er hofft, dass es stimmt und anderen hilft, aber bei vielem nicht sicher sein kann.

Every day I sketch the best thing of the previous day. This video shows the sketches from the days when Baldur’s Gate 3 was the Best Thing of the Day in my first two playthroughs.

I’m deeply annoyed by the sorry state of decision making in programming. It’s OK to rely on intuition in a creative field like software development, but given how critical software is for todays society it is horrible that we don’t even know fundamentals like whether types improve quality enough to warrant their cost or whether parentheses are less readable than Pascal — beyond anecdotal evidence, the effect of funding, and feelings influenced by what you already know.

If Baldur’s Gate 3 stops working because Wine updated to version 10, you can try to hack something together or find a flatpak someone else maintains for you and keep playing. Or you can learn about Guix inferior packages and gain a tool for truly eternal package definition. There are tons of reasons why you may want that, but “my game stopped working!” is as good as any other :-).

The Alphabet in names, but not the standard names, but scientist names; with colors and usable for plantuml. Created because Names are easier to follow than saying “A, B, C”. That’s especially true for lecture slides and other graphics.

"Das liegt auch an einer Eigenheit der taz. Sie versucht, so viel Infrastruktur wie möglich unter eigener Kontrolle zu halten." — danke dafür!

Die Taz arbeitet öffentlich auf, wie ihre Webseite direkt am Wahlsonntag von einer vermutlich Ungarischen Gruppe angegriffen wurde. Und wie die Seite für zwei Stunden offline war — weil die Angriffe anders als sonst nicht komplett abgewehrt werden konnten.

Und die Taz alleiniges Ziel war.

Vielleicht wird der nächste Eurovision Songcontest ja einer, den ich schaue: wenn sich jemand traut, sie wieder zu fragen.

(und das Lied ist klasse! Nur ob ihr Koreanisch gut ist, kann ich nicht beurteilen)
