The young people in my company made sure our webpage is a react app. I gave in because they are having fun and it looks good, but it could have been done in static html (maybe using a generator) way more easily. It hurts me everytime I‘m th

I feel old now, for me the early web was on Mosaic, shortly after I discovered gopher at uni. But seriously, the dynamically generated content of the early web was cgi, perl, later some python (as in scripts, not in django)

We set up a jitsy-meet server for those cases when the customer does not have teams or teams decides to not work. Jitsi does work flawlessly for us in Chrome, Firefox and Edge. I set up a private server for friends, too, to keep in cont

I’d like to read examples of pilots being disincentived from speaking up. On the contrary I always had the impression that, while not perfect, aviation had a very successful approach on recording, learning from and subsequently avoiding hum

If he was the only person receiving these deliveries I’d guess the most probable explanation was completely unrelated to his person - a GPS coordinate / default value in some frequently used application or service. Or maybe something

We will adapt. But there will be a time before COVID19 and after and they will be different in many ways we can‘t know, yet. I myself have this feeling of “One day the vaccine will be there and everything will be as it was before“. That‘s w

but not likely. The pressure to develop a vaccine - or at least a very effective therapy like using monoclonal antibodies - is extremely high. Most people survive COVID19, so there must be either a way to trigger a proper immune response or

That’s really depressing: Doing remote teaching but being to cheap to buy the person providing a tool a beer.

On wednesday I was shown the obduction pictures of a ~30yo regular guy from my city, who had holes in his lung, by a friend who‘s working in ICU. This friend basically said that if you are young and need to be ventilated you enter ICU with

This mode of action is fascinating, some HIV medications work in a similar way. What I’m curious about is why this huge group attached to the adenosine-like group is needed. It seems to be rather complex for being a shoe to be thrown into c

Thanks for your work. Within days Jitsi became a tool for my family and friends to stay sane and to improvise school for multiple kids.

Let‘s hope the hospitals use the same backdoor to remove body bags as they are using to steal ventilators and masks. Maybe so the relatively good administration is spared nasty questions. Relatively good administration my ass, that bar is a

The US fed gov just tried to buy an early vaccine candidate “on unprecedented scale”. I’m not sure that they will do the same when shit hits the ventilators.
