I'm a heavy user of spotify. Almost everyone I know uses it daily. I don't understand why they are not able to turn this much engagement into profit.

The example of the Before and After of the glacier, with 20 years time diffenrence is very unimpressive. Do I miss something? I would have thought that the reduction of the glacier over two decades would be much more visible. Apart from tha

The article does not mention one interesting property: Reusability. The big machines are often left underground after the tunnel is finished. They drill their own grave right next to the main tunnel and then they stay there. Usually big tun

This article has opened up a new perspective for me. It articulates very well that software is a means to an end. It's a craft that can be used to solve a problem. In my past I often emphasized the craft part too much. As if only writi

First thing I did was searching for the car brand (Volkswagen) of my car in the list. I was surprised to find it way down in the yellow area of medium reliability. After all, I choosed that brand specifically because I wanted to have a reli

Train connections are a wonderful thing. They really shrink the space between two locations like no other transportation type. Just hop in, read a book or newspaper and suddenly you are somewhere else. For me it’s a one hour car ride to the

I agree with you, that phrase is misleading. What I tried to express is: The sense of urgency to act upon the climate catastrophe even if it decreases your own quality of life in the short term is somehow “new” or at least only really felt

Yes, it took me some time to adapt to the fact that there is much less time for your own projects. Now I'm totally fine with that. The good thing is, the kids grow older and suddenly time windows become available again. I once read tha

Thanks for your reply. The "stop" was new to me. Having a good feeling when you stop because you know that you come back again is helpful. I read a few more of your articles and I like the variety of topics. Keep on going!
