   Low Tech Magazine is a really inspiring page that I love to read, even if I am not particularly interested in windmills. Thanks a lot!

   I think as engineers we are all a bit spoiled with good salaries. On the other hand software engineering is quite an abstract craft with questionable personal rewards. Maybe we can think about it more as a temporary stage where we use our s

   When I was looking for an Visio alternative I came to draw.io (diagrams.net) Since then I am using it for everything ER modelling, flow charts and so on. I find the UX very good and intuitive like no other.

   Same here. In for 10 years now. Same issues. I am running a homestead now and the manual work and seeing things developing makes me happy. Sure, time is even less than before and sometimes it is exhausting, but the weekends give something v

   Very interesting, but looking up the supported standards it just uses TCP. There is no support for AMQP or MQTT. How is interoperability with just some client libraries for Python, Java, ...

    Beautiful UI. Keep going. Where is the VAT, VAT ID? This will not align with German legal requirements. There could be a country specific pre-selection or some custom form fields

    In my field (tech consulting) I try to ask the people which are better than me, more senior and experienced. If you are already better than all others it's harder. In other fields pick someone who has something you want or want to beco

    Not yet. Was thinking of it several times. But with a special monitor setup and the knowledge of the x cmd tools I am a bit afraid that it would be a waste of time. Maybe dropping systemd would be more important to me. By the way, does disp

    As a frequent internet user, I must admit that "X" is my go-to symbol when I want to close a browser tab quickly. It's a simple yet effective design that has become almost universally recognized across various web browsers.

    I found this blog post from Vitalik Buterin very interesting. Describing his travel bagpack. Regarding clothes it's mostly Uniqlo https://vitalik.ca/general/2022/06/20/backpack.html

    What are good resources to learn about this new trend of using messaging? We already had this stuff MoM (message oriented middle ware). Pretty interesting.

    Thanks for this. An open source solution is so necessary in this space. There is a need for some common trusted party who hosts that thing, as self-hosting doens't make sense I think.

    Lots of good, valid information in this article. After more than 10 years in this field I would add, that it can be beneficial to do the book keeping yourself. It is useful to get a feeling for your numbers and expenses which helps you when

    This is so overdue. Hopefully this will not affect water resistance and shock resistance too much, but I am sure there will be innovations until 2027 in this field.

    This. I also would not like my bike to rely on an internet connection. At least in my view this lowers the value of the bike.

    This and I think Linux desktop is way less attractive as a target as not used on corporate machines so often. Corporate Windows desktops might be more much more interesting data-wise.

    Similar to the other comments. Google calendar for scheduling meetings. I get notifications some days before the appointments to the phone, so I am not surprised and have time for detailed planning. For todos I use Kanboard with different c

    True. Maybe it is even the other way around. A farmer lives on his farm. He works there, he raises his family there, grows his food there, lives there, has his friends around there. For my perspective it is more back to the roots than progr

    Why do DEs have to look modern and slick? In the end you can work the most efficient if your work environment is fast and configurable. All the rest should be up to you. I am running the same DE configuration with Xfce for many years and I

    Interesting idea. But does a wooden structure, even if it is engineered, have the same lifespan of a concrete building? How does this affect prices, rent, management, maintenance of the buildings?
