Just got back from the garage roof after an attempt of trying to get snow and ice from the pv modules. Of course, now it started snowing again.

Der Bundesinnenminister rät einer bayerischen Schule dazu, ein rechtskräftiges Urteil des Verwaltungsgerichtes zu ignorieren. Rücktritt oder durch den VS beobachten lassen, weil er offenbar nicht die rechtsstaatlichen Grundsätze versteht. www.news4teachers.de/2025/12/kruz...

Mission accomplished! 📏🕯️✅

A version of 'git status', but it would be 'dev status' and it would tell you how far ahead the code is of your understanding of it.

Signs that there's at least one nerd in your household: The proposal is on the table to create commonly used documents (and templates) in $markupLanguage and put them in git, so everybody can use their own version, and even could fork the repo.

Please tell me it’s totally normal to light only the second candle, because the height difference between candle 1 and candle 2 is clearly bigger than between candle 2 and candle 3!

The fun of automating tests while being on the train: Is the environment down? Is it the network? Or are my tests faulty? 🤔

Huge thanks to everyone: #AgileTD participants, speakers, volunteers, and especially the lovely organizers - you make this unique event happen for all of us, I'm deeply grateful for this space. See you in 2026! 🦄 2/2

Good morning! 🌞 ☕️ I'm as excited like a little kid! 🦄 #agileTD

Once a year, I‘m travelling and do NOT strike out a certain section on my list with stuff to pack! The time has come, finally going to #agileTD again! 🦄

Today I gave my workshop "GitHub Actions in action" for a very engaged group of people at Testing United. Tomorrow conference day, lots of promosing talks I'm looking forward to. And then home and finalizing my sessions for @agiletdzone.bsky.social!

Travelling with German railway always means asking yourself: Is this piece of software behaving weirdly, or I'm just offline?! 📶 📡

Man muss einfach mal wieder unterscheiden lernen: "Umstritten" ist, ob Ananas auf Pizza gehört. Die Wirkung der Corona-Impfung ist nicht umstritten. Die ist belegt. Die AfD ist nicht umstritten. Die ist rechtsextrem. Und ganz sicher ist nicht umstritten, wo die SS stand.

My 11-year-old nephew is celebrating his birthday tonight with his friends: a sleepover party with a night hike. This is what will haunt them during the hike! 👻 I am so much looking forward to it! 😂

Changing wheels 🛞 on the car 🚗 has only to be done twice a year, and it's one of those activities I would like to procrastinate on for months, although it's done in less then 45 minutes. ⏲️ 🙈 Luckily, for this autumn it's now done.

I'm brainstorming with the help of Claude on things to discuss with workshop participants, what questions to ask. Interestingly, it doesn't headline them "Questions", "Points to discuss" or the like, but "Prompts". Is it assuming my participants will be LLMs? 🤔

Wednesday, 5 pm: It feels like I'm close to solve this coding issue. Wednesday, 5:30 pm: I quit, I've been at the desk for 10 hours, and I have other things to do. Thursday, 9 am: Two more hours into fixing the issue, and it feels like I'm nowhere close to solving it!

Day 7 as a first timer on a Mac. This is my life now! 😱😂

Random thought: Lots of people have different understanding of the same terms. Working in a team, we sooner or later (hopefully) come to common understanding of the terminology used. In a conference talk, explaining what you mean by certain terms is crucial so the audience understands your message!

After the conference is before the conference. @tamarajosten.bsky.social and I on our way to #HUSTEF. Can’twait! 🤩 Whom of our contacts & friends will we meet there?

One of my team mates (an absolute Lord of the Rings (LOTR) overnerd) recently starting to close all meetings with "Merry Christmas", "Happy Easter" and the like. I asked him a simple question about that.

Error messages from hell, as I just encountered in my online banking: "The important inormation could not be loaded." WTF?! 🥹🤔

No #RestBash for @tamarajosten.bsky.social & I after #MotaCon #TestBash. We spend two days in London and enjoyed it a lot. A little bit of sightseeing tomorrow and then heading home. Last evening today in a typical pub. 🍻🍎

Arrived in Brighton for #TestBash. There was no „Having a beer at a sunny beach“ left on my 2025 bingo card, what a nice surprise! 🤩🍻

Great crowd at yesterday's @ministryoftesting.com Munich meetup! 😀 I had a lof of fun presenting, live coding and answering all the questions! 🤩 Big thanks for organizing and having me!

I'm in IT now for 20+ years, and it took me way too many attempts to figure out I misspelled my own name! 🙈😂

Next milestone: Half a year of none smoking! 🚭 Some additional kg, but that’s okay. @tamarajosten.bsky.social

Travelling per train. Next to us two guys, aged ~50. Having to listen to them is quite the pain. Apparently they work in IT, but with IT topics they are as confidently like a cow on ice. They have printed their tickets. People like them are the reason we're not moving forward with digitization in 🇩🇪!

I’m working on a talk for the @ministryoftesting.com Munich Meetup next month, the title contains „power-up“, so I was thinking about making the slides Super Mario themed. TIL there’s an AC/DC album called „power up“. Well, that’s a really hard choice! 🙈🤷‍♂️🤔

I have earned the MoT Community Certificate www.ministryoftesting.com/certificates...

New record! ☺️ www.komoot.com/de-DE/tour/2...

Home handyman vacation and I‘m loving it! 🥰 Building a French cleat tool mounting system in the garage. 👷‍♂️🔨🪚🪛

I could finally use that XL drill! 👷‍♂️✏️

Wifi 📡📶 in the garage: ✅ Done.

The prefered kind of feedback from a programmer after they seeing your test ideas. 🤩

I'm really tempted to buy a printed magazine for the first time in years! 🤩 @heise.de #ct

Today travelling per train, and apparently I fell through a whormhole and landed in 2005: Two persons under 30 have their tickets printed out and the young woman next to me listens music on her iPod.
